Resolves #882

📚 Description

With selective client islands enabled, Nuxt builds every auto-registered component. That made unused Nuxt Scripts widgets download third-party SDKs and fail builds without internet access. Downloads now run only for components imported by the app.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The transformer receives the runtime components directory and defers script downloads for auto-registered components until Vite resolves the final module graph. Unused components retain source URLs. Failed bundle resolution removes empty integrity and crossorigin attributes. Concurrent downloads and issue-882 behavior have unit and end-to-end coverage.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 50104

An unused auto-registered parent can still cause a nested widget’s third-party SDK to download, leading to unnecessary network requests and possible offline build failures. The PR should not merge until component reachability is traced recursively and the nested-unused-component case is covered.

Nuxt 4 addComponentsDir auto registered components generated entry Rollup importers getModuleInfo

💡 Result:

In Nuxt 4, the component auto-registration system is managed by the built-in nuxt:components module, which utilizes @nuxt/kit utilities like addComponentsDir and addComponent to handle component discovery, registration, and virtual template generation [1][2][3]. Mechanism Overview The component system operates through several phases [2]: 1. Build-time scanning: The module scans directories (configured via addComponentsDir) for Vue files, resolving them into Component objects [4][3]. 2. Template generation: Nuxt generates virtual files (such as components.plugin.mjs and components.d.ts) that are used by the bundler (Vite/Rollup) to inject auto-imports and provide type support [2]. 3. Transformation: Nuxt's transformation plugins intercept code to automatically replace component tags with import statements [2]. Rollup and getModuleInfo While Nuxt abstracts the underlying bundler, it relies on Vite (which uses Rollup internally) [5]. The specific mention of getModuleInfo refers to the Rollup JavaScript API [6]. In advanced scenarios—such as custom manual chunk strategies or module graph analysis—developers interact with the getModuleInfo function provided by Rollup's manualChunks API [7]. getModuleInfo allows you to inspect module properties within the build graph, such as importers, dynamicImporters, isEntry, and isDynamicEntry [6][8][7]. This is typically used to: - Determine dependency relationships for code splitting [7]. - Resolve entry-point issues when configuring rollupOptions [5]. - Debug why certain modules are (or are not) being included in specific chunks [8]. Nuxt modules generally do not require you to manually interface with getModuleInfo to register components [9][10]. Instead, you should use the official Nuxt Kit utilities: - addComponentsDir: Use this to register entire directories [1][9]. - addComponent: Use this for registering individual components [1][4]. If you are encountering issues with generated entries or Rollup module information, it is often due to how components are being scanned or named, which can be managed by adjusting the pathPrefix or priority options in your component configuration [9][11][3]. If you need to perform advanced chunking based on these components, you can use the Rollup manualChunks option in vite.build.rollupOptions in your nuxt.config.ts, leveraging getModuleInfo within that function to identify component modules [7].

Rollup 4 ModuleInfo getModuleInfo importers dynamicImporters documentation

💡 Result:

In Rollup, getModuleInfo is a method available within the PluginContext that returns a ModuleInfo object for a given module ID [1][2]. This object provides detailed information about a module's relationships within the dependency graph [1][3]. The importers and dynamicImporters properties on the ModuleInfo object provide lists of modules that import the current module [1][3]: importers: A readonly array of strings representing the IDs of modules that import the current module statically (e.g., using import... from '...'). dynamicImporters: A readonly array of strings representing the IDs of modules that import the current module dynamically (e.g., using import('...')). When using these properties within plugin hooks, note that the information may be incomplete depending on the current build phase [2][4]. Because Rollup discovers modules incrementally, information about importers might not be fully populated in early hooks like moduleParsed [2][4]. If your plugin requires a complete and accurate list of all importers, it is recommended to access this information during the buildEnd hook, where all dependency discovery has concluded [2][4]. The ModuleInfo interface also includes related properties such as importedIds and dynamicallyImportedIds, which list the modules that the current module imports, and their corresponding resolutions (importedIdResolutions and dynamicallyImportedIdResolutions) [1][5].

site:github.com/nuxt/nuxt "components.plugin.mjs" "addComponentsDir" generated components entries

💡 Result:

In Nuxt, addComponentsDir is a utility function exported from @nuxt/kit used to register a directory of components so they can be auto-imported [1][2][3]. When you call addComponentsDir, it instructs Nuxt to scan the specified directory for components and makes them available for use throughout your application [1][3]. Internally, Nuxt handles this by hooking into the components:dirs lifecycle event [1]. This process eventually contributes to the generation of the virtual components entry point, commonly seen in build logs or error traces as.nuxt/components.plugin.mjs [4]. Key technical aspects include: 1. Registration: The function adds the provided directory path to Nuxt's internal list of component directories [1]. 2. Virtual Module Generation: By registering these directories, Nuxt's build process (via Vite or Webpack) generates the virtual code necessary to lazy-load these components on demand [1][4]. The file.nuxt/components.plugin.mjs is a generated artifact that contains the registration logic for these components, enabling features like auto-importing and tree-shaking [4]. 3. Best Practices: It is the recommended approach for Nuxt module authors to register components [5][3]. When used, you can specify options such as a path, a prefix for component names, and priority levels [1][3]. For example: import { addComponentsDir, createResolver, defineNuxtModule } from '@nuxt/kit' export default defineNuxtModule({ setup { const resolver = createResolver(import.meta.url) addComponentsDir({ path: resolver.resolve('./components'), prefix: 'my-prefix' // Optional: prepends this to component names }) }, }) If you encounter errors referencing.nuxt/components.plugin.mjs, it often indicates an issue with the resolution of these components or a naming conflict, which can sometimes be resolved by ensuring your component files follow valid naming conventions or by checking the directory structure [4]. For module development, it is increasingly recommended to place components in a runtime/app/components directory to ensure proper TypeScript type checking [2][6].

Trace component importers to an application-reachable module.

this.getModuleInfo(pending.componentId) checks only direct importers and dynamicImporters. A child component imported by an unused auto-registered parent can therefore reach resolveScriptBundle; on a cache miss, downloadScript calls $fetch.raw for the unused SDK. Traverse both importer sets recursively, and bundle the component only when an importer path reaches an application module. Add a regression case with an unreferenced UnusedParent.vue importing Tracker.vue; Tracker.vue must not start a download during renderStart.
