Litestar Vite
Installation
pip install litestar-vite
Usage
Here is a basic application that demonstrates how to use the plugin.
from __future__ import annotations
from pathlib import Path
from litestar import Controller, get, Litestar
from litestar.response import Template
from litestar.status_codes import HTTP_200_OK
from litestar.template.config import TemplateConfig
from litestar.contrib.jinja import JinjaTemplateEngine
from litestar_vite import ViteConfig, VitePlugin
class WebController(Controller):
opt = {"exclude_from_auth": True}
include_in_schema = False
@get(["/", "/{path:str}"],status_code=HTTP_200_OK)
async def index(self) -> Template:
return Template(template_name="index.html.j2")
template_config = TemplateConfig(engine=JinjaTemplateEngine(directory='templates/'))
vite = VitePlugin(config=ViteConfig())
app = Litestar(plugins=[vite], template_config=template_config, route_handlers=[WebController])
Create a template to serve the application in ./templates/index.html.h2:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<!--IE compatibility-->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta
name="viewport"
content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0"
/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="app"></div>
{{ vite_hmr() }} {{ vite('resources/main.ts') }}
</body>
</html>
