Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Vite plugin which can import modules asynchronously from CDN.

This plugin is forked from vite-plugin-cdn-import and allows you to specify modules that should be loaded in defer/async mode in addition.

Installation

npm:

npm install vite-plugin-cdn-import-async --save-dev

yarn:

yarn add  vite-plugin-cdn-import-async -D

Usage

Plugin config

Specify async or defer to mode param whthin configs of the module you want to import asynchronously from CDN:

// vite.config.js
import cdnImport from 'vite-plugin-cdn-import-async'

export default {
    plugins: [
        cdnImport({
            modules: [
                {
                    name: 'react',
                    var: 'React',
                    mode: 'async', // 'async' atrribute will be added to its <script> tag.
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'lottie-web',
                    var: 'lottie',
                    mode: 'defer', // 'defer' atrribute will be added to its <script> tag.
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'axios',  // Module without 'mode' param will be loaded synchronously.
                    var: 'axios',
                    path: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/axios.min.js',
                }
            ],
        }),
    ],
}

This demo will generate codes below into the output file:

<script>function __cdnImportAsyncHandler(o,n){n&&window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules.push(o);var d=new CustomEvent("asyncmoduleloaded",{detail:{module:o,isError:!!n}});window.dispatchEvent(d)}window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules=window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules||[];</script>
<script async onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
<script defer onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/axios.min.js"></script>

Input file

By default, every module that defined in plugin config will generate its <script> tag into the output file, no matter this module was used in the project or not.

But now you can set attribute data-cdn-import in <meta> tag of the input file, to determind which module should generate <script> into the output file.

For example (example/react/index.html):

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" data-cdn-import="React,lottie" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Example</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
    <script type="module" src="/src/main.tsx"></script>
  </body>
</html>

According to data-cdn-import="React,lottie", plugin will only handle React and lottie modules and generate their <script> into the output file (example/react/dist/index.html):

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Example</title>
    <script>window.__cdnImportAsync_varToNameMap={"React":"react","lottie":"lottie-web"};</script>
    <script>function __cdnImportAsyncHandler(o,n){n&&window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules.push(o);var d=new CustomEvent("asyncmoduleloaded",{detail:{module:o,isError:!!n}});window.dispatchEvent(d)}window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules=window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules||[];</script>
    <script async onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
    <script defer onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js"></script>
    <script type="module" crossorigin src="/assets/index.c9473e27.js"></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/index.cd9c0392.css">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
  </body>
</html>

Mode suffix

Using suffix @async or @defer within data-cdn-import can also generate asynchronous <script> tag of marked module.

Example

Notice that here's no mode: 'async' in the configs of React module:

// vite.config.js
import cdnImport from 'vite-plugin-cdn-import-async'

export default {
    plugins: [
        cdnImport({
            modules: [
                {
                    name: 'react',
                    var: 'React',
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'lottie-web',
                    var: 'lottie',
                    mode: 'defer', 
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'axios',
                    var: 'axios',
                    path: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/axios.min.js',
                }
            ],
        }),
    ],
}

And the input file (example/react/index.html) likes:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" data-cdn-import="React@async,lottie" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Example</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
    <script type="module" src="/src/main.tsx"></script>
  </body>
</html>

According to React@async within data-cdn-import, the React module will generate <script> tag with async attribute into the output file (example/react/dist/index.html):

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Example</title>
    <script>window.__cdnImportAsync_nameToVar={"react":"React","lottie-web":"lottie"};</script>
    <script>function __cdnImportAsyncHandler(o,n){n&&window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules.push(o);var d=new CustomEvent("asyncmoduleloaded",{detail:{module:o,isError:!!n}});window.dispatchEvent(d)}window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules=window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules||[];</script>
    <script async onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('React', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
    <script defer onload="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie')" onerror="__cdnImportAsyncHandler('lottie', true)" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js"></script>
    <script type="module" crossorigin src="/assets/index.c9473e27.js"></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/index.cd9c0392.css">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
  </body>
</html>

Lazy loading

In addition to async or defer as the value of mode, here's other avalable values for lazy-loading:

| Value of mode | Description | | ---- | ---- | | DOMContentLoaded | Module will start being loaded within DOMContentLoaded event of window. | | load | Module will start being loaded within load event of window. | | [milliseconds] | Module will start being loaded in specified milliseconds after load event emits. |

Example

In vite.config.js:

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        importToCDN({
            modules: [
                {
                    name: 'react',
                    var: 'React',
                    mode: 'DOMContentLoaded',
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'lottie-web',
                    var: 'lottie',
                    mode: '3000',
                    path: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js`,
                },
                {
                    name: 'axios',
                    var: 'axios',
                    mode: 'load',
                    path: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/axios.min.js',
                }
            ],
        }),
        reactRefresh(),
    ],
})

Or the entry file:

<meta data-cdn-import="React@DOMContentLoaded,lottie@3000,axios@load" />

The output file would be like:

    <script>window.__cdnImportAsync_nameToVar={"react":"React","lottie-web":"lottie"};</script>
    <script>function __cdnImportAsyncHandler(o,n){n&&window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules.push(o);var d=new CustomEvent("asyncmoduleloaded",{detail:{module:o,isError:!!n}});window.dispatchEvent(d)}window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules=window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules||[];</script>
    <script>function __cdnImportAsync_deferredLoader(n,r){var c=document.createElement("script");c.onload=function(){__cdnImportAsyncHandler(n)},c.onerror=function(){__cdnImportAsyncHandler(n,!0)},c.src=r,document.body.appendChild(c)}</script>
    <script>!function(){window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",function e(){__cdnImportAsync_deferredLoader("React","https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js"),window.removeEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",e)},!1)}();</script>
    <script>!function(){window.addEventListener("load",function e(){setTimeout(function(){__cdnImportAsync_deferredLoader("lottie","https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/build/player/lottie.min.js")},3000),window.removeEventListener("load",e)},!1)}();</script>
    <script>!function(){window.addEventListener("load",function e(){__cdnImportAsync_deferredLoader("axios","https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/axios.min.js"),window.removeEventListener("load",e)},!1)}();</script>
  

Import async module

Once a module is loaded asynchronously by mode config, you should create an function to handle it while using it in pages:

export function cdnAsyncImport(moduleName: string, isDev: boolean): Promise<any> {
  if (isDev) {
    return Promise.reject()
  }

  return new Promise((resolve, rejects) => {
    const errorModules = window.cdnImportAsync_loadingErrorModules || []
    const moduleVar = window.__cdnImportAsync_nameToVar[moduleName]
    if (errorModules.includes(moduleVar)) {
      rejects()
    } else if (window[moduleVar]) {
      resolve(window[moduleVar])
    } else {
      window.addEventListener(
        'asyncmoduleloaded',
        (e: any) => {
          const { detail } = e || {}
          if (detail && !detail.isError && window[moduleVar]) {
            resolve(window[moduleVar])
          } else {
            rejects()
          }
        },
        false
      )
    }
  })
}

cdnAsyncImport('lottie-web', import.meta.env.DEV).then(lottie => {
  // Async module has been successfully loaded.
  console.log(lottie)
}).catch(() => {
  // Handling DEV or Error case
  import('lottie-web').then(...)
})
