vite-plugin-vercel

Vercel adapter for Vite.

Bundle your Vite application as supported by Vercel Output API (v3).

Features

• SSG/Static files
  • see prerender config
• SSR/Serverless functions
  • .[jt]s files under the <root>/api folder of your project are automatically bundled as Serverless functions under .vercel/output/functions/api/*.func
  • see additionalEndpoints config
• ISR/Prerender functions
  • see isr config. Also see implementation of vike for example
• Edge functions
• Edge middleware
• Images optimization
• Preview mode
• Advanced config

Simple usage

Install this package as a dev dependency and add it to your Vite config:

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import vercel from 'vite-plugin-vercel';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [vercel()],
  vercel: {
    // optional configuration options, see "Advanced usage" below for details
  },
});

Note

Files under /api or /_api directory will automatically be added under /api/* route Prefer using /_api directory, as @vercel/build is currently force building /api files, with no way to disable it, thus avoiding double compilation and unexpected behaviour.

Configure endpoints

Endpoints under /api, /_api or added through additionalEndpoints can be configured by exporting values from the endpoint file:

// file: _api/endpoint.ts

// Should run on edge runtime
export const edge = true;

// Always add those header to this endpoint
export const headers = {
  'Some-Header': 'some value',
};

// Enable Incremental Static Regeneration for this endpoint
export const isr = {
  expiration: 30,
};

export default async function handler() {
  return new Response('Edge Function: OK', {
    status: 200,
  });
}

Note

Please create an issue if you need other per-endpoints configurations

Edge middleware

You can use Edge middleware as describe in the official documentation (i.e. with a middleware.ts file at the root of your project).

Usage with vike

vike is supported through @vite-plugin-vercel/vike plugin.

You only need to install @vite-plugin-vercel/vike, the Vite config stays the same as above.

Important

@vite-plugin-vercel/vike supersedes the old @magne4000/vite-plugin-vercel-ssr package. As such, you should remove @magne4000/vite-plugin-vercel-ssr from your package.json and vite config file.

You can then leverage config files to customize ISR configuration:

// /pages/product/+config.h.ts

import Page from './Page';
import type { Config } from 'vike/types';

// Customize ISR config for this page
export default {
  isr: { expiration: 15 },
} satisfies Config;

You will also need to extend the renderer config so that vike is aware of the new parameter:

// /renderer/+config.h.ts

import config from '@vite-plugin-vercel/vike/config';
import type { Config } from 'vike/types';

export default {
  extends: config,
} satisfies Config;

Advanced usage

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import vercel from 'vite-plugin-vercel';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [vercel()],
  vercel: {
    // All the followings optional
