Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • The Vite build integration now generates output only for JavaScript modules included in the loaded application, avoiding unintended generation for other project source files.

Walkthrough

The Vite plugin now generates module code only for relative IDs that end in .js and exist in the loaded application's repository. BuildHelper adds a repository membership check and uses a shared accessor for application lookups.

Changes

Vite module filtering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Repository membership and Vite load filtering packages/build/src/BuildHelper.ts, packages/plugin-vite/src/index.ts	BuildHelper.includesModule checks whether the loaded application's repository contains a filename. load returns null for IDs without a .js suffix or IDs that fail this check. Module and segment generation use a shared application accessor that preserves the ApplicationNotRead error.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 4934c

Vite module generation is skipped for valid application modules, likely breaking the plugin’s normal build workflow. Normalize the ID before lookup and generation before merging.

Before / after behavior

• observed — Modified behavior in packages/build/src/BuildHelper.ts: Adds includesModule, which gets the loaded application and returns whether its repository contains the filename.
• observed — Modified behavior in packages/build/src/BuildHelper.ts: generateModuleCode replaces its inline unread-application check and direct field access with #getApplication(); its parameters and return type are unchanged.
• observed — Modified behavior in packages/build/src/BuildHelper.ts: Module generation now reads resources and segmentation from the application returned by #getApplication(), rather than directly from #application.
• observed — Modified behavior in packages/build/src/BuildHelper.ts: generateSegmentCode replaces its inline unread-application check and direct field access with #getApplication() before looking up the segment.

And lets unmatched paths pass by.
The loaded app is checked with care,
While generators keep their guard.
The bunny hops through builds anew,
With fewer files to rewrite.}

Normalize the repository ID before lookup and generation.

A normal source ID becomes /file.js after the source prefix is removed. The repository stores file.js, so includesModule returns false and load returns null. Use the normalized ID for both lookup and generation. Ignored files remain excluded because they are not present in the repository.

Suggested fix

                 const relativeId = id
                     .replace(paths.project.source!, '')
                     .replace('.ts', '.js');
+                const repositoryId = relativeId.startsWith('/') ? relativeId.slice(1) : relativeId;
                 
                 if (relativeId.endsWith('.js') === false)
                 {
                     return null;
                 }

-                if (buildHelper.includesModule(relativeId) === false)

                 }
                 
-                return buildHelper.generateModuleCode(relativeId, segments);
+                return buildHelper.generateModuleCode(repositoryId, segments);
