Vite Command Runner

A Vite plugin that runs custom shell commands on file changes.

Installation

You can install the package via npm:

npm i -D vite-plugin-command

Usage

Import the package from vite.config.js and configure it.

import { defineConfig } from "vite"
import { command } from "vite-plugin-command"

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [ 
    command({
      pattern: "routes/**/*.php",
      run: "php artisan ziggy:generate",
    }),
  ],
})

You can also run multiple commands by passing an array of objects.

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [ 
    command([
      {
        pattern: "routes/**/*.php",
        run: "php artisan ziggy:generate",
      },
      {
        pattern: "app/{Data,Enums}/**/*.php",
        run: "php artisan typescript:transform",
      },
    ]),
  ],
})

Once a tracked file changes, the plugin will execute the specified command.
