vue-scanner is a cli command that allows you to scan project directories and generate Vue.component() definitions, as well as a list of components and their paths in JSON.
This has multiple use cases:
- Oftentimes your IDE is not able to resolve dynamic component definitions, i.e. if you are interpolating component names for dynamic require/import.
- You are doing something with vue-loader, e.g. parsing custom tags to generate docs, and want to have all your component definition within reach
- You are building a design system and tired of importing and declaring all of your dependencies in single-file components, and cleaning up all the redundant imports once templates change
Install:
yarn add --dev @hypejunction/vue-scannerConfigure vue-scanner in package.json:
{
"vue-scanner": {
"src": {
"atoms": {
"dirs": [
"./src/components/atoms/"
],
"async": false
},
"molecules": {
"dirs": [
"./src/components/molecules/"
],
"async": true
}
},
"target": {
"js": "./src/components.js",
"json": "./src/components.json"
},
"chunks": true,
"requestChunks": false,
"chunkPrefix": "components/"
}
}Components are grouped into categories, i.e. "atoms" and "molecules", whereas each category may have multiple source directories. Group names can be used to define webpack chunks.
Each group can be async (in which case dynamic import with chunk name is used) or sync (in which case require statement is used);
If you would like each component to be exported as a separate chunk, set requestChunks to true.
The script will write two files: js and json. js file will contain Vue.component() declarations, whereas json file contains a list of all components with their names and paths.
Once the configuration is in place, simply run:
yarn vue-scannerYou can integrate this script with your nodemon or watch commands.
