Helpers

Overview

Helpers are global functions you may use to help you get informations regarding manifests and assets. Generally speaking, it's best not to use them and just rely on the directives, but they are here if you need.

vite

This function returns an instance of the default Vite configuration, or the specified one if any.

php
echo vite()->getName(); // prints the value of config('vite.default')

vite_entry

This function returns the URL for the given entrypoint. If the asset is not registered as an entrypoint, an exception will be thrown. You can specify the configuration name as the second parameter.

php
echo vite_entry('main');
// Local: https://localhost:5173/resources/scripts/main.ts
// Prod:  https://app-url.test/build/assets/test.a2c636dd.js

vite_asset

This function returns a valid URL for the given asset path. The path is not verified against the configured entrypoints.

  • In manifest mode, Laravel's asset is used and the build_path is prepended to the given path.
  • In server mode, the development server URL is used and the path is appended as-is.

You can specify the configuration name as the second parameter.

php
echo vite_asset('/file.txt');
// Local: https://localhost:5173/file.txt
// Prod:  https://app-url.test/build/file.txt

vite_tag

This function returns the tag for the given entrypoint. It's the exact same as the @tag directive. You can specify the configuration name as the second parameter.

php
echo vite_tag('main');
// Local: <script type="module" src="http://localhost:5173/resources/scripts/main.ts"></script>
//
// Prod:  <script type="module" src="https://app-url.test/build/assets/main.a2c636dd.js"></script>
//        <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://app-url.test/build/assets/main.65bd481b.css" />

vite_tags

This function returns the tags for the Vite client script and every configured entrypoint. It's the exact same as the @vite directive. You can specify the configuration name as the first parameter.

//
// Prod:  <script type="module" src="https://app-url.test/build/assets/main.a2c636dd.js"></script>
//        <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://app-url.test/build/assets/main.65bd481b.css" />
