## Introduction

[Vite](https://vitejs.dev) is a modern frontend build tool that provides an extremely fast development environment and bundles your code for production. When building applications with Laravel, you will typically use Vite to bundle your application's CSS and JavaScript files into production ready assets.

Laravel integrates seamlessly with Vite by providing an official plugin and Blade directive to load your assets for development and production.

> [!NOTE]  
> Are you running Laravel Mix? Vite has replaced Laravel Mix in new Laravel installations. For Mix documentation, please visit the [Laravel Mix](https://laravel-mix.com/) website. If you would like to switch to Vite, please see our [migration guide](https://github.com/laravel/vite-plugin/blob/main/UPGRADE.md#migrating-from-laravel-mix-to-vite).

<a name="vite-or-mix"></a>
#### Choosing Between Vite and Laravel Mix

Before transitioning to Vite, new Laravel applications utilized [Mix](https://laravel-mix.com/), which is powered by [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/), when bundling assets. Vite focuses on providing a faster and more productive experience when building rich JavaScript applications. If you are developing a Single Page Application (SPA), including those developed with tools like [Inertia](https://inertiajs.com), Vite will be the perfect fit.

Vite also works well with traditional server-side rendered applications with JavaScript "sprinkles", including those using [Livewire](https://livewire.laravel.com). However, it lacks some features that Laravel Mix supports, such as the ability to copy arbitrary assets into the build that are not referenced directly in your JavaScript application.

<a name="migrating-back-to-mix"></a>
#### Migrating Back to Mix

Have you started a new Laravel application using our Vite scaffolding but need to move back to Laravel Mix and webpack? No problem. Please consult our [official guide on migrating from Vite to Mix](https://github.com/laravel/vite-plugin/blob/main/UPGRADE.md#migrating-from-vite-to-laravel-mix).

<a name="installation"></a>
## Installation & Setup

> [!NOTE]  
> The following documentation discusses how to manually install and configure the Laravel Vite plugin. However, Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include all of this scaffolding and are the fastest way to get started with Laravel and Vite.

<a name="installing-node"></a>
### Installing Node

You must ensure that Node.js (16+) and NPM are installed before running Vite and the Laravel plugin:

```sh
node -v
npm -v
```

You can easily install the latest version of Node and NPM using simple graphical installers from [the official Node website](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). Or, if you are using [Laravel Sail](https://laravel.com/docs/{{version}}/sail), you may invoke Node and NPM through Sail:

```sh
./vendor/bin/sail node -v
./vendor/bin/sail npm -v
```

<a name="installing-vite-and-laravel-plugin"></a>
### Installing Vite and the Laravel Plugin

Within a fresh installation of Laravel, you will find a `package.json` file in the root of your application's directory structure. The default `package.json` file already includes everything you need to get started using Vite and the Laravel plugin. You may install your application's frontend dependencies via NPM:

```sh
npm install
```

<a name="configuring-vite"></a>
### Configuring Vite

Vite is configured via a `vite.config.js` file in the root of your project. You are free to customize this file based on your needs, and you may also install any other plugins your application requires, such as `@vitejs/plugin-vue` or `@vitejs/plugin-react`.

The Laravel Vite plugin requires you to specify the entry points for your application. These may be JavaScript or CSS files, and include preprocessed languages such as TypeScript, JSX, TSX, and Sass.

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel([
            'resources/css/app.css',
            'resources/js/app.js',
        ]),
    ],
});
```

If you are building an SPA, including applications built using Inertia, Vite works best without CSS entry points:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel([
            'resources/css/app.css', // [tl! remove]
            'resources/js/app.js',
        ]),
    ],
});
```

Instead, you should import your CSS via JavaScript. Typically, this would be done in your application's `resources/js/app.js` file:

```js
import './bootstrap';
import '../css/app.css'; // [tl! add]
```

The Laravel plugin also supports multiple entry points and advanced configuration options such as [SSR entry points](#ssr).

<a name="working-with-a-secure-development-server"></a>
#### Working With a Secure Development Server

If your local development web server is serving your application via HTTPS, you may run into issues connecting to the Vite development server.

If you are using [Laravel Herd](https://herd.laravel.com) and have secured the site or you are using [Laravel Valet](/docs/{{version}}/valet) and have run the [secure command](/docs/{{version}}/valet#securing-sites) against your application, the Laravel Vite plugin will automatically detect and use the generated TLS certificate for you.

If you secured the site using a host that does not match the application's directory name, you may manually specify the host in your application's `vite.config.js` file:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
            detectTls: 'my-app.test', // [tl! add]
        }),
    ],
});
```

When using another web server, you should generate a trusted certificate and manually configure Vite to use the generated certificates:

```js
// ...
import fs from 'fs'; // [tl! add]

const host = 'my-app.test'; // [tl! add]

export default defineConfig({
    // ...
    server: { // [tl! add]
        host, // [tl! add]
        hmr: { host }, // [tl! add]
        https: { // [tl! add]
            key: fs.readFileSync(`/path/to/${host}.key`), // [tl! add]
            cert: fs.readFileSync(`/path/to/${host}.crt`), // [tl! add]
        }, // [tl! add]
    }, // [tl! add]
});
```

If you are unable to generate a trusted certificate for your system, you may install and configure the [`@vitejs/plugin-basic-ssl` plugin](https://github.com/vitejs/vite-plugin-basic-ssl). When using untrusted certificates, you will need to accept the certificate warning for Vite's development server in your browser by following the "Local" link in your console when running the `npm run dev` command.

<a name="configuring-hmr-in-sail-on-wsl2"></a>
#### Running the Development Server in Sail on WSL2

When running the Vite development server within [Laravel Sail](/docs/{{version}}/sail) on Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL2), you should add the following configuration to your `vite.config.js` file to ensure the browser can communicate with the development server:

```js
// ...

export default defineConfig({
    // ...
    server: { // [tl! add:start]
        hmr: {
            host: 'localhost',
        },
    }, // [tl! add:end]
});
```

If your file changes are not being reflected in the browser while the development server is running, you may also need to configure Vite's [`server.watch.usePolling` option](https://vitejs.dev/config/server-options.html#server-watch).

<a name="loading-your-scripts-and-styles"></a>
### Loading Your Scripts and Styles

With your Vite entry points configured, you may now reference them in a `@vite()` Blade directive that you add to the `<head>` of your application's root template:

```blade
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
    {{-- ... --}}

    @vite(['resources/css/app.css', 'resources/js/app.js'])
</head>
```

If you're importing your CSS via JavaScript, you only need to include the JavaScript entry point:

```blade
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
    {{-- ... --}}

    @vite('resources/js/app.js')
</head>
```

The `@vite` directive will automatically detect the Vite development server and inject the Vite client to enable Hot Module Replacement. In build mode, the directive will load your compiled and versioned assets, including any imported CSS.

If needed, you may also specify the build path of your compiled assets when invoking the `@vite` directive:

```blade
<!doctype html>
<head>
    {{-- Given build path is relative to public path. --}}

    @vite('resources/js/app.js', 'vendor/courier/build')
</head>
```

<a name="inline-assets"></a>
#### Inline Assets

Sometimes it may be necessary to include the raw content of assets rather than linking to the versioned URL of the asset. For example, you may need to include asset content directly into your page when passing HTML content to a PDF generator. You may output the content of Vite assets using the `content` method provided by the `Vite` facade:

```blade
@use('Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite')

<!doctype html>
<head>
    {{-- ... --}}

    <style>
        {!! Vite::content('resources/css/app.css') !!}
    </style>
    <script>
        {!! Vite::content('resources/js/app.js') !!}
    </script>
</head>
```

<a name="running-vite"></a>
## Running Vite

There are two ways you can run Vite. You may run the development server via the `dev` command, which is useful while developing locally. The development server will automatically detect changes to your files and instantly reflect them in any open browser windows.

Or, running the `build` command will version and bundle your application's assets and get them ready for you to deploy to production:

```shell
# Run the Vite development server...
npm run dev

# Build and version the assets for production...
npm run build
```

If you are running the development server in [Sail](/docs/{{version}}/sail) on WSL2, you may need some [additional configuration](#configuring-hmr-in-sail-on-wsl2) options.

<a name="working-with-scripts"></a>
## Working With JavaScript

<a name="aliases"></a>
### Aliases

By default, The Laravel plugin provides a common alias to help you hit the ground running and conveniently import your application's assets:

```js
{
    '@' => '/resources/js'
}
```

You may overwrite the `'@'` alias by adding your own to the `vite.config.js` configuration file:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel(['resources/ts/app.tsx']),
    ],
    resolve: {
        alias: {
            '@': '/resources/ts',
        },
    },
});
```

<a name="vue"></a>
### Vue

If you would like to build your frontend using the [Vue](https://vuejs.org/) framework, then you will also need to install the `@vitejs/plugin-vue` plugin:

```sh
npm install --save-dev @vitejs/plugin-vue
```

You may then include the plugin in your `vite.config.js` configuration file. There are a few additional options you will need when using the Vue plugin with Laravel:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel(['resources/js/app.js']),
        vue({
            template: {
                transformAssetUrls: {
                    // The Vue plugin will re-write asset URLs, when referenced
                    // in Single File Components, to point to the Laravel web
                    // server. Setting this to `null` allows the Laravel plugin
                    // to instead re-write asset URLs to point to the Vite
                    // server instead.
                    base: null,

                    // The Vue plugin will parse absolute URLs and treat them
                    // as absolute paths to files on disk. Setting this to
                    // `false` will leave absolute URLs un-touched so they can
                    // reference assets in the public directory as expected.
                    includeAbsolute: false,
                },
            },
        }),
    ],
});
```

> Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include the proper Laravel, Vue, and Vite configuration. Check out [Laravel Breeze](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits#breeze-and-inertia) for the fastest way to get started with Laravel, Vue, and Vite.

<a name="react"></a>
### React

If you would like to build your frontend using the [React](https://reactjs.org/) framework, then you will also need to install the `@vitejs/plugin-react` plugin:

```sh
npm install --save-dev @vitejs/plugin-react
```

You may then include the plugin in your `vite.config.js` configuration file:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel(['resources/js/app.jsx']),
        react(),
    ],
});
```

You will need to ensure that any files containing JSX have a `.jsx` or `.tsx` extension, remembering to update your entry point, if required, as [shown above](#configuring-vite).

You will also need to include the additional `@viteReactRefresh` Blade directive alongside your existing `@vite` directive.

```blade
@viteReactRefresh
@vite('resources/js/app.jsx')
```

The `@viteReactRefresh` directive must be called before the `@vite` directive.

> [!NOTE]  
> Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include the proper Laravel, React, and Vite configuration. Check out [Laravel Breeze](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits#breeze-and-inertia) for the fastest way to get started with Laravel, React, and Vite.

<a name="inertia"></a>
### Inertia

The Laravel Vite plugin provides a convenient `resolvePageComponent` function to help you resolve your Inertia page components. Below is an example of the helper in use with Vue 3; however, you may also utilize the function in other frameworks such as React:

```js
import { createApp, h } from 'vue';
import { createInertiaApp } from '@inertiajs/vue3';
import { resolvePageComponent } from 'laravel-vite-plugin/inertia-helpers';

createInertiaApp({
  resolve: (name) => resolvePageComponent(`./Pages/${name}.vue`, import.meta.glob('./Pages/**/*.vue')),
  setup({ el, App, props, plugin }) {
    return createApp({ render: () => h(App, props) })
      .use(plugin)
      .mount(el)
  },
});
```

> [!NOTE]  
> Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include the proper Laravel, Inertia, and Vite configuration. Check out [Laravel Breeze](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits#breeze-and-inertia) for the fastest way to get started with Laravel, Inertia, and Vite.

<a name="url-processing"></a>
### URL Processing

When using Vite and referencing assets in your application's HTML, CSS, or JS, there are a couple of caveats to consider. First, if you reference assets with an absolute path, Vite will not include the asset in the build; therefore, you should ensure that the asset is available in your public directory.

When referencing relative asset paths, you should remember that the paths are relative to the file where they are referenced. Any assets referenced via a relative path will be re-written, versioned, and bundled by Vite.

Consider the following project structure:

```nothing
public/
  taylor.png
resources/
  js/
    Pages/
      Welcome.vue
  images/
    abigail.png
```

The following example demonstrates how Vite will treat relative and absolute URLs:

```html
<!-- This asset is not handled by Vite and will not be included in the build -->
<img src="/taylor.png">

<!-- This asset will be re-written, versioned, and bundled by Vite -->
<img src="../../images/abigail.png">
```

<a name="working-with-stylesheets"></a>
## Working With Stylesheets

You can learn more about Vite's CSS support within the [Vite documentation](https://vitejs.dev/guide/features.html#css). If you are using PostCSS plugins such as [Tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com), you may create a `postcss.config.js` file in the root of your project and Vite will automatically apply it:

```js
export default {
    plugins: {
        tailwindcss: {},
        autoprefixer: {},
    },
};
```

> [!NOTE]  
> Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include the proper Tailwind, PostCSS, and Vite configuration. Or, if you would like to use Tailwind and Laravel without using one of our starter kits, check out [Tailwind's installation guide for Laravel](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/guides/laravel).

<a name="working-with-blade-and-routes"></a>
## Working With Blade and Routes

<a name="blade-processing-static-assets"></a>
### Processing Static Assets With Vite

When referencing assets in your JavaScript or CSS, Vite automatically processes and versions them. In addition, when building Blade based applications, Vite can also process and version static assets that you reference solely in Blade templates.

However, in order to accomplish this, you need to make Vite aware of your assets by importing the static assets into the application's entry point. For example, if you want to process and version all images stored in `resources/images` and all fonts stored in `resources/fonts`, you should add the following in your application's `resources/js/app.js` entry point:

```js
import.meta.glob([
  '../images/**',
  '../fonts/**',
]);
```

These assets will now be processed by Vite when running `npm run build`. You can then reference these assets in Blade templates using the `Vite::asset` method, which will return the versioned URL for a given asset:

```blade
<img src="{{ Vite::asset('resources/images/logo.png') }}">
```

<a name="blade-refreshing-on-save"></a>
### Refreshing on Save

When your application is built using traditional server-side rendering with Blade, Vite can improve your development workflow by automatically refreshing the browser when you make changes to view files in your application. To get started, you can simply specify the `refresh` option as `true`.

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
            refresh: true,
        }),
    ],
});
```

When the `refresh` option is `true`, saving files in the following directories will trigger the browser to perform a full page refresh while you are running `npm run dev`:

- `app/View/Components/**`
- `lang/**`
- `resources/lang/**`
- `resources/views/**`
- `routes/**`

Watching the `routes/**` directory is useful if you are utilizing [Ziggy](https://github.com/tighten/ziggy) to generate route links within your application's frontend.

If these default paths do not suit your needs, you can specify your own list of paths to watch:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
            refresh: ['resources/views/**'],
        }),
    ],
});
```

Under the hood, the Laravel Vite plugin uses the [`vite-plugin-full-reload`](https://github.com/ElMassimo/vite-plugin-full-reload) package, which offers some advanced configuration options to fine-tune this feature's behavior. If you need this level of customization, you may provide a `config` definition:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
            refresh: [{
                paths: ['path/to/watch/**'],
                config: { delay: 300 }
            }],
        }),
    ],
});
```

<a name="blade-aliases"></a>
### Aliases

It is common in JavaScript applications to [create aliases](#aliases) to regularly referenced directories. But, you may also create aliases to use in Blade by using the `macro` method on the `Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite` class. Typically, "macros" should be defined within the `boot` method of a [service provider](/docs/{{version}}/providers):

    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     */
    public function boot(): void
    {
        Vite::macro('image', fn (string $asset) => $this->asset("resources/images/{$asset}"));
    }

Once a macro has been defined, it can be invoked within your templates. For example, we can use the `image` macro defined above to reference an asset located at `resources/images/logo.png`:

```blade
<img src="{{ Vite::image('logo.png') }}" alt="Laravel Logo">
```

<a name="custom-base-urls"></a>
## Custom Base URLs

If your Vite compiled assets are deployed to a domain separate from your application, such as via a CDN, you must specify the `ASSET_URL` environment variable within your application's `.env` file:

```env
ASSET_URL=https://cdn.example.com
```

After configuring the asset URL, all re-written URLs to your assets will be prefixed with the configured value:

```nothing
https://cdn.example.com/build/assets/app.9dce8d17.js
```

Remember that [absolute URLs are not re-written by Vite](#url-processing), so they will not be prefixed.

<a name="environment-variables"></a>
## Environment Variables

You may inject environment variables into your JavaScript by prefixing them with `VITE_` in your application's `.env` file:

```env
VITE_SENTRY_DSN_PUBLIC=http://example.com
```

You may access injected environment variables via the `import.meta.env` object:

```js
import.meta.env.VITE_SENTRY_DSN_PUBLIC
```

<a name="disabling-vite-in-tests"></a>
## Disabling Vite in Tests

Laravel's Vite integration will attempt to resolve your assets while running your tests, which requires you to either run the Vite development server or build your assets.

If you would prefer to mock Vite during testing, you may call the `withoutVite` method, which is available for any tests that extend Laravel's `TestCase` class:

```php tab=Pest
test('without vite example', function () {
    $this->withoutVite();

    // ...
});
```

```php tab=PHPUnit
use Tests\TestCase;

class ExampleTest extends TestCase
{
    public function test_without_vite_example(): void
    {
        $this->withoutVite();

        // ...
    }
}
```

If you would like to disable Vite for all tests, you may call the `withoutVite` method from the `setUp` method on your base `TestCase` class:

```php
<?php

namespace Tests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    protected function setUp(): void// [tl! add:start]
    {
        parent::setUp();

        $this->withoutVite();
    }// [tl! add:end]
}
```

<a name="ssr"></a>
## Server-Side Rendering (SSR)

The Laravel Vite plugin makes it painless to set up server-side rendering with Vite. To get started, create an SSR entry point at `resources/js/ssr.js` and specify the entry point by passing a configuration option to the Laravel plugin:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            input: 'resources/js/app.js',
            ssr: 'resources/js/ssr.js',
        }),
    ],
});
```

To ensure you don't forget to rebuild the SSR entry point, we recommend augmenting the "build" script in your application's `package.json` to create your SSR build:

```json
"scripts": {
     "dev": "vite",
     "build": "vite build" // [tl! remove]
     "build": "vite build && vite build --ssr" // [tl! add]
}
```

Then, to build and start the SSR server, you may run the following commands:

```sh
npm run build
node bootstrap/ssr/ssr.js
```

If you are using [SSR with Inertia](https://inertiajs.com/server-side-rendering), you may instead use the `inertia:start-ssr` Artisan command to start the SSR server:

```sh
php artisan inertia:start-ssr
```

> [!NOTE]  
> Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits) already include the proper Laravel, Inertia SSR, and Vite configuration. Check out [Laravel Breeze](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits#breeze-and-inertia) for the fastest way to get started with Laravel, Inertia SSR, and Vite.

<a name="script-and-style-attributes"></a>
## Script and Style Tag Attributes

<a name="content-security-policy-csp-nonce"></a>
### Content Security Policy (CSP) Nonce

If you wish to include a [`nonce` attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/nonce) on your script and style tags as part of your [Content Security Policy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP), you may generate or specify a nonce using the `useCspNonce` method within a custom [middleware](/docs/{{version}}/middleware):

```php
<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Closure;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;

class AddContentSecurityPolicyHeaders
{
    /**
     * Handle an incoming request.
     *
     * @param  \Closure(\Illuminate\Http\Request): (\Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response)  $next
     */
    public function handle(Request $request, Closure $next): Response
    {
        Vite::useCspNonce();

        return $next($request)->withHeaders([
            'Content-Security-Policy' => "script-src 'nonce-".Vite::cspNonce()."'",
        ]);
    }
}
```

After invoking the `useCspNonce` method, Laravel will automatically include the `nonce` attributes on all generated script and style tags.

If you need to specify the nonce elsewhere, including the [Ziggy `@route` directive](https://github.com/tighten/ziggy#using-routes-with-a-content-security-policy) included with Laravel's [starter kits](/docs/{{version}}/starter-kits), you may retrieve it using the `cspNonce` method:

```blade
@routes(nonce: Vite::cspNonce())
```

If you already have a nonce that you would like to instruct Laravel to use, you may pass the nonce to the `useCspNonce` method:

```php
Vite::useCspNonce($nonce);
```

### Subresource Integrity (SRI)

If your Vite manifest includes `integrity` hashes for your assets, Laravel will automatically add the `integrity` attribute on any script and style tags it generates in order to enforce [Subresource Integrity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity). By default, Vite does not include the `integrity` hash in its manifest, but you may enable it by installing the [`vite-plugin-manifest-sri`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vite-plugin-manifest-sri) NPM plugin:

```shell
npm install --save-dev vite-plugin-manifest-sri
```

You may then enable this plugin in your `vite.config.js` file:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';
import manifestSRI from 'vite-plugin-manifest-sri';// [tl! add]

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
        }),
        manifestSRI(),// [tl! add]
    ],
});
```

If required, you may also customize the manifest key where the integrity hash can be found:

```php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite;

Vite::useIntegrityKey('custom-integrity-key');
```

If you would like to disable this auto-detection completely, you may pass `false` to the `useIntegrityKey` method:

```php
Vite::useIntegrityKey(false);
```

<a name="arbitrary-attributes"></a>
### Arbitrary Attributes

If you need to include additional attributes on your script and style tags, such as the [`data-turbo-track`](https://turbo.hotwired.dev/handbook/drive#reloading-when-assets-change) attribute, you may specify them via the `useScriptTagAttributes` and `useStyleTagAttributes` methods. Typically, this methods should be invoked from a [service provider](/docs/{{version}}/providers):

```php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite;

Vite::useScriptTagAttributes([
    'data-turbo-track' => 'reload', // Specify a value for the attribute...
    'async' => true, // Specify an attribute without a value...
    'integrity' => false, // Exclude an attribute that would otherwise be included...
]);

Vite::useStyleTagAttributes([
    'data-turbo-track' => 'reload',
]);
```

If you need to conditionally add attributes, you may pass a callback that will receive the asset source path, its URL, its manifest chunk, and the entire manifest:

```php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Vite;

Vite::useScriptTagAttributes(fn (string $src, string $url, array|null $chunk, array|null $manifest) => [
    'data-turbo-track' => $src === 'resources/js/app.js' ? 'reload' : false,
]);

Vite::useStyleTagAttributes(fn (string $src, string $url, array|null $chunk, array|null $manifest) => [
    'data-turbo-track' => $chunk && $chunk['isEntry'] ? 'reload' : false,
]);
```

> [!WARNING]  
> The `$chunk` and `$manifest` arguments will be `null` while the Vite development server is running.

## Advanced Customization

Out of the box, Laravel's Vite plugin uses sensible conventions that should work for the majority of applications; however, sometimes you may need to customize Vite's behavior. To enable additional customization options, we offer the following methods and options which can be used in place of the `@vite` Blade directive:

```blade
<!doctype html>
<head>
    {{-- ... --}}

    {{
        Vite::useHotFile(storage_path('vite.hot')) // Customize the "hot" file...
            ->useBuildDirectory('bundle') // Customize the build directory...
            ->useManifestFilename('assets.json') // Customize the manifest filename...
            ->withEntryPoints(['resources/js/app.js']) // Specify the entry points...
            ->createAssetPathsUsing(function (string $path, ?bool $secure) { // Customize the backend path generation for built assets...
                return "https://cdn.example.com/{$path}";
            })
    }}
</head>
```

Within the `vite.config.js` file, you should then specify the same configuration:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            hotFile: 'storage/vite.hot', // Customize the "hot" file...
            buildDirectory: 'bundle', // Customize the build directory...
            input: ['resources/js/app.js'], // Specify the entry points...
        }),
    ],
    build: {
      manifest: 'assets.json', // Customize the manifest filename...
    },
});
```

### Correcting Dev Server URLs

Some plugins within the Vite ecosystem assume that URLs which begin with a forward-slash will always point to the Vite dev server. However, due to the nature of the Laravel integration, this is not the case.

For example, the `vite-imagetools` plugin outputs URLs like the following while Vite is serving your assets:

```html
<img src="/@imagetools/f0b2f404b13f052c604e632f2fb60381bf61a520">
```

The `vite-imagetools` plugin is expecting that the output URL will be intercepted by Vite and the plugin may then handle all URLs that start with `/@imagetools`. If you are using plugins that are expecting this behaviour, you will need to manually correct the URLs. You can do this in your `vite.config.js` file by using the `transformOnServe` option.

In this particular example, we will prepend the dev server URL to all occurrences of `/@imagetools` within the generated code:

```js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';
import { imagetools } from 'vite-imagetools';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            // ...
            transformOnServe: (code, devServerUrl) => code.replaceAll('/@imagetools', devServerUrl+'/@imagetools'),
        }),
        imagetools(),
    ],
});
```

Now, while Vite is serving Assets, it will output URLs that point to the Vite dev server:

```html
- <img src="/@imagetools/f0b2f404b13f052c604e632f2fb60381bf61a520"><!-- [tl! remove] -->
+ <img src="http://[::1]:5173/@imagetools/f0b2f404b13f052c604e632f2fb60381bf61a520"><!-- [tl! add] -->
```
