Support for PUG includes

[silentmantra]

Description

Promoting Vite on stackoverflow.com but that's hard. I guess Vite loses to Webpack in terms of support and size of community. I think more easy-to-implement features could be added to Vite for closing the gap.

I had recently a hot debate on handling PUG files. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76565215/vite-not-detecting-changes-vue-pug

Turned out there's no support for PUG includes in VIte and a couple of existing PUG plugins doesn't solve the problem.

Suggested solution

Add support of using include inside <template lang="pug">

I got pug includes to work in our projects by specifying the basedir in the vue plugin config like this:

vue({
  template: {
    preprocessOptions: {
      basedir: path.resolve(__dirname, './src') // or something else here
    },
  }
}
