Is it possible to include snippets of shared HTML using Vite (vanilla)? I'm looking for a way to have the HTML prerendered without injecting via JS.
Something like:
<html>
<head>
{ include 'meta-tags' }
</head>
<body>
{ include 'nav' }
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<body>
</html>

vite-plugin-handlebars was the solution I was looking for. Partials were super easy to set up with this package:
Setup:
// vite.config.js
import { resolve } from 'path';
import handlebars from 'vite-plugin-handlebars';
export default {
plugins: [
handlebars({
partialDirectory: resolve(__dirname, 'partials'),
}),
],
};
File where you want to include partial:
<!-- index.html -->
{{> header }}
<h1>The Main Page</h1>
Rendered output:
<header><a href="/">My Website</a></header>
<h1>The Main Page</h1>
You could use the vite-plugin-html that enables EJS templates in index.html:
// vite.config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import { createHtmlPlugin } from 'vite-plugin-html'
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
createHtmlPlugin({
entry: 'main.js',
/**
* Data that needs to be injected into the index.html ejs template
*/
inject: {
data: {
metaTags: `<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />`,
nav: `<nav>
<a href="https://google.com">Google</a> |
<a href="https://apple.com">Apple</a>
</nav>`,
},
},
}),
],
})
<!-- index.html -->
<html>
<head>
<%- metaTags %>
</head>
<body>
<%- nav %>
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<body>
</html>
