rollup-plugin-import-extendscript

An experimental Vite / Rollup plugin to import ExtendScript files as a string

Installation

npm install rollup-plugin-import-extendscript --dev

Setup

When used with Vite, call the plugin in Vite's config instead of rollup's config to enjoy it during both development & bundling

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import  importExtendScript  from 'rollup-plugin-import-extendscript';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        importExtendScript()
    ]
});

Rollup

import importExtendScript from 'rollup-plugin-import-extendscript';

export default {
  plugins: [
    importExtendScript()
  ]
};

Usage

In your code, import the file as a string, then evaluate it

import jsxContent from './jsx/file.jsx';
new CSInterface().evalScript(jsxContent);

The plugin will make sure that the file is loaded as a string, and that the string is properly escaped for ExtendScript.

Options

explicit

.jsx is not an extendscript exclusive file extension. To avoid clashes, you can set explicit to true and add a ?extendscript suffix to your import statements. For example:

In your config file:

importExtendScript({
    explicit: true
})

In your code:

import jsxContent from './jsx/file.jsx?extendscript';

Files without the ?extendscript suffix will be ignored by the plugin.

Include

There are multiple ways to include a file in ExtendScript. This plugin knows how to handle the following two:

#include './other.jsx'

Or

// @include './other.jsx'
