Installation
Create a normal Vite project for Vue2. (see tests/playground)
Usage
// entry-client.ts
import ssr from "vite-ssr-vue2/client";
import App from "./App.vue";
export default ssr(App);// entry-server.ts
import ssr from "vite-ssr-vue2/server";
import App from "./App.vue";
export default ssr(App);There can be only one entry point for the server and for the client. Plugin automatically changes alias for SSR. If for some reason you need separate entry points, then specify the server side in the ssr parameter
Available options for Vite plugin

name: plugin name (default: vite-ssr-vue2) -

Accessing context, res and req objects
In the built-in dev server, context, req, res objects are passing to created hook. In production, you must pass these objects to the rendering function in order to have them available.
({html} = await entry(url, {
manifest,
res,
req,
context
}));Redirect
The redirect method add to res object for development, and requires implementation in production.
ClientOnly
Aka vite-ssr, vite-ssr-vue2 exports ClientOnly component that renders its children only in the browser:
import { ClientOnly } from "vite-ssr-vue2"
<div>
<ClientOnly>
<!--- your code --->
</ClientOnly>
</div>
Production
Run vite build for buildling your app. This will create 2 builds (client and server) that you can import and use from your Node backend.
