This plugin adds preload links by getting output assets from the build tools you are using.
Supporting:
- Vite 4 and 5 (on build only)
- Webpack 5 (with HtmlWebpackPlugin 5)
- Rspack 1.0 (with HtmlWebpackPlugin 5 or HtmlRspackPlugin)
Note
This plugin combines vite-plugin-inject-preload and html-webpack-inject-preload into one package.
See the migration guide for vite-plugin-inject-preload and html-webpack-inject-preload .
#npm
npm i -D unplugin-inject-preload
#yarn
yarn add -D unplugin-inject-preload
#pnpm
pnpm i -D unplugin-inject-preloadVite
// vite.config.ts
import UnpluginInjectPreload from 'unplugin-inject-preload/vite'
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
UnpluginInjectPreload({ /* options */ }),
],
})Example: playground/vitejs
The Vite plugin only works on build because of the way Vite behave.
Webpack (with HtmlWebpackPlugin)
// webpack.config.js
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')
const UnpluginInjectPreload = require('unplugin-inject-preload/webpack')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
HtmlWebpackPlugin({ /* HtmlWebpackPlugin options */ }),
UnpluginInjectPreload({ /* options */ }),
]
}Example: playground/webpack
Rspack (with HtmlWebpackPlugin)
// rspack.config.js
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')
const UnpluginInjectPreload = require('unplugin-inject-preload/rspack')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
HtmlWebpackPlugin({ /* HtmlWebpackPlugin options */ }),
UnpluginInjectPreload({ /* options */ }),
]
}Example: playground/rspack
Rspack (with HtmlRspackPlugin)
// rspack.config.js
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')
const UnpluginInjectPreload = require('unplugin-inject-preload/rspack')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new rspack.HtmlRspackPlugin({ /* HtmlRspackPlugin options */ }),
UnpluginInjectPreload({ /* options */ }),
]
}Example: playground/rspack
All example are presented for ViteJS but this is the same behavior for Webpack and RsPack
All the files needs to be process by the bundler to be find by the plugin. For example, if I load this CSS file :
@font-face {
font-family: 'Roboto';
src: url('./../fonts/Roboto-Italic.woff2');
font-weight: 400;
font-style: italic;
}
@font-face {
font-family: 'Roboto';
src: url('./../fonts/Roboto-Regular.woff2');
font-weight: 400;
font-style: normal;
}I can make the following configuration for UnpluginInjectPreload :
// vite.config.js / vite.config.ts
import UnpluginInjectPreload from 'unplugin-inject-preload/vite'
export default {
plugins: [
UnpluginInjectPreload({
files: [
{
entryMatch: /Roboto-[a-zA-Z]*\.woff2$/,
},
{
outputMatch: /lazy.[a-z-0-9]*.(css|js)$/,
}
]
})
]
}-
files: An array of files object
- entryMatch: A regular expression to target entry files you want to preload
- outputMatch: A regular expression to target output build files you want to preload
You need to set at least
entryMatchor/andoutputMatch. Be aware that entry file is not always present for webpack andentryMatchwill do nothing.- attributes (optional):
If this option is ommited, it will determine the
mimeand theasattributes automatically. You can also add/override any attributes you want.
-
injectTo (optional): By default, the preload links are injected with the
'head-prepend'options. But you can pass'head'to inject preload links at bottom of the head tag if you need it.
You can pass the'custom'option and put<!--__unplugin-inject-preload__-->in your.htmlfile where you want to inject the preload links.
With the full options usage, you can do something like this :
// vite.config.js / vite.config.ts
import UnpluginInjectPreload from 'unplugin-inject-preload/vite'
export default {
plugins: [
UnpluginInjectPreload({
files: [
{
entryMatch: /Roboto-[a-zA-Z]*\.woff2$/,
outputMatch: /Roboto-[a-zA-Z]*-[a-z-0-9]*\.woff2$/,
attributes: {
'type': 'font/woff2',
'as': 'font',
'crossorigin': 'anonymous',
'data-font': 'Roboto'
}
},
{
outputMatch: /lazy.[a-z-0-9]*.(js)$/,
attributes: {
rel: 'modulepreload',
type: undefined,
}
}
],
injectTo: 'head-prepend'
})
]
