Command prerender

Check out the Pre-rendering Guide to for an overview of how to pre-render a vite-plugin-ssr app.

The prerender command executes pre-rendering.

It can be called:

  • As CLI command: $ npx vite-plugin-ssr prerender / $ yarn vite-plugin-ssr prerender.
  • As JavaScript API: import { prerender } from 'vite-plugin-ssr/cli.

Options:

  • partial: Allow only a subset of pages to be pre-rendered. (Pages with a parameterized route cannot be pre-rendered without prerender() hook; the --partial option suppresses the warning telling you about pages not being pre-rendered.)
  • noExtraDir: Do not create a new directory for each page, e.g. generate dist/client/about.html instead of dist/client/about/index.html.
  • root: The root directory of your project (where vite.config.js and dist/ live). Default: process.cwd().
  • outDir: The build directoy of your project. Default: dist.
  • parallel: Number of concurrenlty running jobs. Default: os.cpus().length. Set to 1 to disable concurrency.

Options are passed like this:

  • CLI: $ vite-plugin-ssr prerender --partial --noExtraDir --root path/to/root --parallel 1
  • API: prerender({ partial: true, noExtraDir: true, root: 'path/to/root', parallel: 1 })
