rollup-plugin-dot

library1.1.0jsnpmunverified

Rollup plugin that compiles doT.js template files (.dot, .tpl) into JavaScript functions during bundling. Current stable version is 1.1.0. The plugin provides a seamless integration of doT templates with Rollup, enabling imports like `import view from './view.dot'`. It supports include/exclude patterns, custom doT template settings, and template defines. Key differentiators: minimal configuration, TypeScript type definitions included, and supports both .dot and .tpl extensions. Unlike alternatives, it focuses solely on doT without additional template engine overhead.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import dot from 'rollup-plugin-dot'

✗ import { dot } from 'rollup-plugin-dot'

The package exports a default function; named import will result in undefined.

dot

✓ const dot = require('rollup-plugin-dot')

✗ const { dot } = require('rollup-plugin-dot')

CommonJS require returns the default export directly, not an object.

DotPluginOptions

✓ import type { DotPluginOptions } from 'rollup-plugin-dot'

TypeScript type exported for plugin options, useful for custom configs.

Shows basic rollup-plugin-dot setup with include pattern, template settings, and defines.

// rollup.config.js import dot from 'rollup-plugin-dot'; export default { input: 'src/index.js', output: { file: 'dist/bundle.js', format: 'iife', }, plugins: [ dot({ include: ['**/*.dot'], templateSettings: { strip: false }, defines: { env: process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development', }, }), ], };

Debug

Known issues

gotchaDefault Export Only; Named Import Fails Silently

fix

Use default import: `import dot from 'rollup-plugin-dot'`

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaExports Undefined if Named Export Used

fix

Use default import: `import dot from 'rollup-plugin-dot'`

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaRequire Returns Function Directly, Not an Object

fix

Use `const dot = require('rollup-plugin-dot')` instead of destructuring

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaOnly .dot Files Processed by Default

fix

Add `include: ['**/*.tpl']` to process .tpl files

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaTemplate Settings Are Passed to doT Compiler; Typos Not Validated

fix

Ensure templateSettings keys match doT documentation exactly

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Could not load ... (imported by ...): Cannot find module 'dot'

Missing doT runtime dependency; 'dot' is a peer dependency.

fix

Run `npm install -D dot` or `yarn add -D dot`

TypeError: dot is not a function

Using named import `import { dot } from 'rollup-plugin-dot'` instead of default.

fix

Use `import dot from 'rollup-plugin-dot'`

Error: Unexpected token (Note that you need plugins to import files that are not JavaScript)

Rollup cannot process .dot files without the plugin.

fix

Add the dot plugin to the plugins array in rollup.config.js
