vue-hot-reload-loader

Enable hot module replacement (HMR) on your Vue components.

This loader is for Vue components written in .js (or other non single file components format) file. If you are using .vue file, you don't need this loader because they already have HMR feature.

Installation

# NPM
$ npm install --save-dev vue-hot-reload-loader

# Yarn
$ yarn add --dev vue-hot-reload-loader

Usage

You need to update your webpack config to let webpack awere vue-hot-reload-loader. Note that you should carefuly set webpack's rule condition so that vue-hot-reload-loader is only used for actual component files. See a discussion.

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.js/,
        use: ['vue-hot-reload-loader', 'buble-loader'],
        // If and only if all your components are in `path/to/components` directory
        include: path.resolve(__dirname, 'path/to/components')
      }
    ]
  }
}

And you have to export each component as default export.

export default {
  data () {
    return {
      message: 'hi'
    }
  }
}
