• OS: macOS Sonoma 14.1

Description

There is error overlay shows that [plugin:linaria] $RefreshSig$ is not defined in development mode (npm run dev) → Either I comment all Linaria related code in my component (particularly styled) or comment used custom hook, the error disappears.

I cannot found any solutions or reasons about this error.

File that error occur
MyComponent.tsx

import { styled } from "@linaria/react";
import useAuth from "../../hooks/useAuth";

const SignInPage = () => {
  const { currentUser } = useAuth();

  return <Container>My Component</Container>;
};

export default SignInPage;

const Container = styled.div`
  padding: 32px 64px;
`;

Comment Linaria code will work

// import { styled } from "@linaria/react";
import useAuth from "../../hooks/useAuth";

const SignInPage = () => {
  const { currentUser } = useAuth();

  return <div>My Component</div>;
};

export default SignInPage;

// const Container = styled.div`
//   padding: 32px 64px;
// `;

or comment custom hook will work

import { styled } from "@linaria/react";
// import useAuth from "../../hooks/useAuth";

const SignInPage = () => {
  // const { currentUser } = useAuth();

  return <Container>My Component</Container>;
};

export default SignInPage;

const Container = styled.div`
  padding: 32px 64px;
`;

Try updating the Vite's config disabling prefreshEnabled. It worked for me.

 plugins: [
    linaria(),
    preact({ prefreshEnabled: false }),
    ...
  ],

preact({ prefreshEnabled: false }),

I had the same problem in Astro with Preact and this fixed it! I copied the @astrojs/preact integration from https://github.com/withastro/astro/blob/main/packages/integrations/preact/src/index.ts to a new file inside my project and added

...
const preactPlugin = preact({
    include,
    exclude,
+   prefreshEnabled: false,
    babel: {
        cwd: fileURLToPath(babelCwd),
    },
});
...

maybe this helps somebody with the same problem.

Disabling prefresh is a workaround with some drawbacks. We had the same issue, but I didn't want to sacrifice the nice DX prefresh brings. Instead I added the missing part to the context to be available during the transformation

import wyw from '@wyw-in-js/vite';
//...
wyw({
  // all your options
  overrideContext: context => (env.mode === 'development'
    ? { ...context, $RefreshSig$: () => () => () => {} }
    : context),
}),
