Builder

Nuxt have builders based on webpack and vite. You can extend the config passed to each one using extendWebpackConfig and extendViteConfig functions. You can also add additional plugins via addVitePlugin, addWebpackPlugin and addBuildPlugin.

`extendWebpackConfig`

Extends the webpack configuration. Callback function can be called multiple times, when applying to both client and server builds.

Type

function extendWebpackConfig (callback: ((config: WebpackConfig) => void), options?: ExtendWebpackConfigOptions): voidexport interface ExtendWebpackConfigOptions {  dev?: boolean  build?: boolean  server?: boolean  client?: boolean  prepend?: boolean}

Checkout webpack website for more information about its configuration.

Parameters

`callback`

Type: (config: WebpackConfig) => void

Required: true

A callback function that will be called with the webpack configuration object.

`options`

Type: ExtendWebpackConfigOptions

Default: {}

Options to pass to the callback function. This object can have the following properties:

dev (optional)
Type: boolean
Default: true
If set to true, the callback function will be called when building in development mode.
build (optional)
Type: boolean
Default: true
If set to true, the callback function will be called when building in production mode.
server (optional)
Type: boolean
Default: true
If set to true, the callback function will be called when building the server bundle.
client (optional)
Type: boolean
Default: true
If set to true, the callback function will be called when building the client bundle.
prepend (optional)
Type: boolean
If set to true, the callback function will be prepended to the array with unshift() instead of push().

Examples

import { defineNuxtModule, extendWebpackConfig } from '@nuxt/kit'export default defineNuxtModule({  setup() {    extendWebpackConfig((config) => {      config.module?.rules.push({        test: /\.txt$/,        use: 'raw-loader'      })    })  }})

`extendViteConfig`

Extends the Vite configuration. Callback function can be called multiple times, when applying to both client and server builds.

Type

function extendViteConfig (callback: ((config: ViteConfig) => void), options?: ExtendViteConfigOptions): voidexport interface ExtendViteConfigOptions {  dev?: boolean  build?: boolean  server?: boolean  client?: boolean  prepend?: boolean}
