vite-plugin-node-polyfills

A Vite plugin to polyfill Node's Core Modules for browser environments. Supports node: protocol imports.

$3

``
Module "stream" has been externalized for browser compatibility. Cannot access "stream.Readable" in client code.
`

Since browsers do not support Node's Core Modules, packages that use them must be polyfilled to function in browser environments. In an attempt to prevent runtime errors, Vite produces errors or warnings when your code references builtin modules such as fs or path.

Getting Started

Install the package as a dev dependency.

`sh


npm

npm install --save-dev vite-plugin-node-polyfills

pnpm

pnpm install --save-dev vite-plugin-node-polyfills

yarn

yarn add --dev vite-plugin-node-polyfills
`

Add the plugin to your vite.config.ts file.

`ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import { nodePolyfills } from 'vite-plugin-node-polyfills'

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
nodePolyfills({
// Whether to polyfill node: protocol imports.
protocolImports: true,
}),
],
})
