defineDevRemoteModuleConfig

Creates an Rsbuild configuration object that is adapted for a Squide remote module application in development mode. This function is a wrapper built on top of @workleap/rsbuild-configs. Make sure to read the defineDevConfig documentation first.

Reference

const rsbuildConfig = defineDevRemoteModuleConfig(applicationName, port, options?: {})

Parameters

• applicationName: The remote module application name.
• port: The remote module application port.
• options: An optional object literal of options:
  • Accepts most of Rsbuild definedDevConfig predefined options.
  • features: An optional object literal of feature switches to define additional shared dependencies.
    • i18next: Whether or not to add @squide/i18next as a shared dependency.
    • environmentVariables: false to remove @squide/env-vars from shared dependencies.
    • honeycomb: false to remove Honeycomb packages from shared dependencies.
    • launchDarkly: false to remove LaunchDarkly packages from shared dependencies.
    • msw: false to remove @squide/msw from shared dependencies.
  • sharedDependencies: An optional object literal of additional (or updated) module federation shared dependencies.
  • moduleFederationPluginOptions: An optional object literal of ModuleFederationPlugin options.

Returns

An Rsbuild configuration object tailored for a Squide remote module application in development mode.

Conventions

To fulfill Squide remote module requirements, the defineDevRemoteModuleConfig function will pre-configure the ModuleFederationPlugin with the following filename and exposes properties.

{
    filename: "/remoteEntry.js",
    exposes: {
        "register.js": "./src/register"
    }
}

Default shared dependencies

The defineDevRemoteModuleConfig function will add the following shared dependencies as singleton by default:

• react
• react-dom
• react-router
• @squide/core
• @squide/react-router
• @squide/module-federation
• @squide/msw
• @squide/env-vars
• @opentelemetry/api
• @squide/launch-darkly
• launchdarkly-js-client-sdk

For the full shared dependencies configuration, have a look at the defineConfig.ts file on Github.

Usage

Define a webpack config

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080);

Activate additional features

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    features: {
        i18next: true
    }
});

Specify additional shared dependencies

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    sharedDependencies: {
        "@sample/shared": {
            singleton: true
        }
    }
});

Extend a default shared dependency

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    sharedDependencies: {
        "react": {
            requiredVersion: "18.2.0"
        }
    }
});

In the previous code sample, the react shared dependency will be augmented with the newly provided strictVersion option. The resulting shared dependency will be:

{
    "react": {
        eager: true,
        singleton: true,
        requiredVersion: "18.2.0"
    }
}

Override a default shared dependency

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    sharedDependencies: {
        "react": {
            singleton: false
        }
    }
});

In the previous code sample, the react shared dependency singleton option will be overrided by the newly provided value. The resulting shared dependency will be:

{
    "react": {
        eager: true,
        singleton: false
    }
}

Customize module federation configuration

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    moduleFederationPluginOptions: defaultOptions => {
        defaultOptions.name = "my-application";

        return defaultOptions;
    }
});

Expose an additional module

import { defineDevRemoteModuleConfig } from "@squide/firefly-rsbuild-configs";

export default defineDevRemoteModuleConfig("remote1", 8080, {
    moduleFederationPluginOptions: defaultOptions => {
        defaultOptions.exposes = {
            ...(defaultOptions.exposes ?? {}),
            "./foo": "./src/bar"
        }

        return defaultOptions;
    }
});
