rollup-plugin-lit-html

Use plain HTML files as lit-html templates.
Keep your markup and your logic separate!

##Installation

npm install rollup-plugin-lit-html

Usage

• Add rollup-plugin-lit-html to your rollup configuration:

// rollup.config.js
import litHtml from 'rollup-plugin-lit-html';

export default {
  input: 'src/main.js',
  output: {
    file: 'bundle.js',
    format: 'esm'
  },
  plugins: [ litHtml() ]
};

Now you can write "plain" html and use lit-html to easily manage your DOM without mixing JavaScript and HTML.

NOTE:
lit-html is extremely sensitive to multiple copies running in the same application.

You must provide your own copy of lit-html to avoid this problem.

"API"

Instead of importing a string of HTML, you will import a template function.

import { template } from "./main.html";

The template function's signature is

template( configuration )

configuration is a required object that must contain at least these two values:
| Property | Type | Default | | ---------|------|-------- | | values | Object | {} | | html | Function | ( str ) => str.raw |

values should be a list of values to expand into the HTML.

So if your lit-html use-case was:

// src/main.js
import { html, render } from "lit-html";

var descriptor = "neat";

render( html`<span>This is ${descriptor}</span>`, document.body );

// Boo, mixed JS and HTML!

Now it can be:

// src/main.html
<span>This is ${descriptor}</span>

// src/main.js
import{ render, html } from "lit-html";
import { template } from "./main.html";

var descriptor = "neat";

render( template( { "values": { descriptor }, html } ), document.body );

// Hooray, separation!

rollup-plugin-lit-html will play nice with other html/string loaders, just exclude or include what you need:

// rollup.config.js
import litHtml from 'rollup-plugin-lit-html';

export default {
  input: 'src/main.js',
  output: {
    file: 'bundle.js',
    format: 'esm'
  },
  plugins: [
    litHtml( {
      "include": "**/*.template.html",
      "exclude": "static/**/*.html"
    } )
  ]
};
