Important

This project is mainrained by developer from Ukraine 🇺🇦

Due to the ongoing war resulting from Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, I currently lack the time for the full development of this open-source project. My primary focus is on ensuring the well-being of myself and my family. I'll prioritize and review all new contributions as soon as possible.

If you can, please consider supporting Ukraine or me personally.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

unplugin-auto-expose

Plugins for automatic exposeInMainWorld. Easily export your exposed api from preload to renderer.

Example

// preload.ts
export const foo = 'foo string'
// Equivalent
electron.contextBridge.exposeInMainWorld('__electron_preload_foo', 'foo string')

// renderer.ts
import {foo} from '#preload'
// Equivalent
const foo = window.__electron_preload_foo

Supports all export declaration

// Export named declaration
export const prop = 1
export function method() {}

// Named Re-export
export {prop} from 'file'
export {prop as propAlias} from 'file'

// Export all declaration
export * from 'file'
export * as props from 'file'

// Default exports
export default 'foo'

Configuration

This package contains two plugins: one for preload and one for renderer builds.

// preload/vite.config.ts

import {preload} from 'unplugin-auto-expose';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    preload.vite()
  ]
})

// renderer/vite.config.ts

import {renderer} from 'unplugin-auto-expose';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    renderer.vite({
      preloadEntry: '/absolute/path/to/preload.ts'
    })
  ]
})

TypeScript

To configure the TypeScript, add a path to your renderer.

// tsconfig.json`:
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "paths": {
      "#preload": [
        "/path/to/preload"
      ]
    }
  }
}
