A Vite plugin to instrument your code for nyc/istanbul code coverage. In similar way as the Webpack Loader `istanbul-instrumenter-loader`. Only intended for use in development while running tests.
Only versions targeting the latest stable Vite version is actively developed.
Installation
--------------------------
`npm i -D vite-plugin-istanbul`
or if you use yarn
`yarn add -D vite-plugin-istanbul`
API
--------------------------
```js
import IstanbulPlugin from 'vite-plugin-istanbul';
```
### [IstanbulPlugin( [ opts ] )](#istanbul-plugin)
Creates the vite plugin from a set of optional plugin options.
**Returns:** Vite Plugin
#### Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| ---------------------- | ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `cwd` | `string` | Optional string of the current working directory, used for the include/exclude patterns. Defaults to `process.cwd()`. |
| `include` | `string\|string[]` | Optional string or array of strings of glob patterns to include. |
| `exclude` | `string\|string[]` | Optional string or array of strings of glob patterns to exclude. |
| `extension` | `string\|string[]` | Optional string or array of strings of extensions to include (dot prefixed like .js or .ts). By default this is set to `['.js', '.cjs', '.mjs', '.ts', '.tsx', '.jsx', '.vue']`. |
| `requireEnv` | `boolean` | Optional boolean to require the environment variable (defaults to **VITE_COVERAGE**) to equal `true` in order to instrument the code. Otherwise it will instrument even if env variable is not set. However if `requireEnv` is not set the instrumentation will stop if the environment variable is equal to `false`. |
| `cypress` | `boolean` | Optional boolean to change the environment variable to **CYPRESS_COVERAGE** instead of **VITE_COVERAGE**. For ease of use with `@cypress/code-coverage`. |
| `checkProd` | `boolean` | Optional boolean to enforce the plugin to skip instrumentation for production environments. Looks at Vite's **isProduction** key from the `ResolvedConfig`. |
| `forceBuildInstrument` | `boolean` | Optional boolean to enforce the plugin to add instrumentation in build mode. Defaults to false. |
| `nycrcPath` | `string` | Path to specific nyc config to use instead of automatically searching for a nycconfig. This parameter is just passed down to `@istanbuljs/load-nyc-config`. |
| `generatorOpts` | `GeneratorOptions` | A set of generator options that are passed down to the Babel transformer. See [here](https://babeljs.io/docs/babel-generator#options) for reference. Defaults to empty object. |
Notes
--------------------------
As of v2.1.0 you can toggle the coverage off by setting the env variable `VITE_COVERAGE='false'`, by default it will always instrument the code. To require the explicit definition of the variable, set the option `requireEnv` to **true**.
This plugin also requires the Vite configuration [build.sourcemap](https://vitejs.dev/config/#build-sourcemap) to be set to either **true**, **'inline'**, **'hidden'**.
But the plugin will automatically default to **true** if it is missing in order to give accurate code coverage.
The plugin will notify when this happens in order for a developer to fix it. This notification will show even when the plugin is disabled by e.g `opts.requireEnv`, `VITE_COVERAGE=false`. This is due to a limitation of the API for this kind of feature.
Examples
--------------------------
To use this plugin define it using vite.config.js
```js
// vite.config.js
import istanbul from 'vite-plugin-istanbul';
export default {
open: true,
port: 3000,
plugins: [
istanbul({
include: 'src/*',
exclude: ['node_modules', 'test/'],
extension: ['.js', '.ts', '.vue'],
requireEnv: true,
}),
],
};
```
