# vite-plugin-tauri

Integrate [Tauri](https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri) in a [Vite](https://github.com/vitejs/vite) project to build cross-platform apps

[![NPM Version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/vite-plugin-tauri)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vite-plugin-tauri)

## Install

> Make sure to [setup your environment](https://tauri.studio/en/docs/getting-started/intro#setting-up-your-environment) for Tauri development.

```sh
# pnpm
pnpm add -D vite-plugin-tauri @tauri-apps/cli
# yarn
yarn add -D vite-plugin-tauri @tauri-apps/cli
# npm
npm i -D vite-plugin-tauri @tauri-apps/cli
```

## Usage

```ts
// vite.config.js
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import tauri from "vite-plugin-tauri"; // 1. import the plugin

export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
tauri(), // 2. add it to the plugins list
],

// 3. optional but recommended
clearScreen: false,
server: {
open: false,
},
});
```

## Tauri CLI arguments

You can pass arguments to the tauri CLI by prefixing the args with `-- -t/--tauri`, for example:

```sh
pnpm dev -- -t --verbose --release
```

The `--` is necessary, otherwise `vite` will crash with unkown CLI argument and `-t` or `--tauri` marks the start of the tauri arguments.

## Advanced Usage

### Using a separate config for Tauri

You can also use a separate config file to add the `vite-plugin-tauri` plugin
which allows you to define a separate script in `package.json` to develop
your tauri app that won't conflict with your normal vite web development flow.

1. Create a `vite.config.tauri.js` with the following content

```ts
import { defineConfig, mergeConfig } from "vite";
import baseViteConfig from "./vite.config";
import tauri from "vite-plugin-tauri";

export default defineConfig(
mergeConfig(baseViteConfig, {
plugins: [tauri()],

// optional but recommended
clearScreen: false,
server: {
open: false,
},
}),
);
```

2. Modify `package.json`:
```diff
// package.json
{
..
"scripts": {
"dev": "vite",
"build": "vite build",
+ "dev:tauri": "vite --config vite.config.tauri.js",
+ "build:tauri": "vite build --config vite.config.tauri.js",
"preview": "vite preview"
},
..
}
```
