vite.config.ts

vite.config.ts is where you configure your application.

tsx
import netlify from "solid-start-netlify";
import solid from "solid-start/vite";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    solid({
      adapter: netlify({ edge: true })
    })
  ]
});

tsx
import netlify from "solid-start-netlify";
import solid from "solid-start/vite";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    solid({
      adapter: netlify({ edge: true })
    })
  ]
});

Usage

Configuring your application

SolidStart is built with Vite. It is little more than a collection of Vite plugins that enable all the functionality that we see here. This is an incredibly powerful approach as we get to leverage Vite's whole ecosystem of plugins to enhance our applications.

The core plugin used by SolidStart is found at solid-start/vite. The main configuration for it is setting the adapter. Adapter's in SolidStart set the environment to which your project is deployed. Currently, SolidStart supports:

• Node
• Static hosting
• Netlify Functions & Edge
• Vercel Functions & Edge
• AWS Lambda & Lambda@Edge
• Cloudflare Workers & Pages
• Deno Deploy

The simplest usage is passing no arguments, which defaults to the Node adapter. Other adapters must be installed in your project and added to the configuration via the adapter option. For example, this uses Netlify Edge:

tsx
import netlify from "solid-start-netlify";
import solid from "solid-start/vite";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    solid({
      adapter: netlify({ edge: true })
    })
  ]
});

tsx
import netlify from "solid-start-netlify";
import solid from "solid-start/vite";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    solid({
      adapter: netlify({ edge: true })
    })
  ]
});
