+## Component extensions
+
+By default, any file with an extension specified in the [extensions key of `nuxt.config.ts`](/api/configuration/nuxt-config#extensions) is treated as a component.
+If you need to restrict the file extensions that should be registered as components, you can use the extended form of the components directory declaration and its `extensions` key:
+
+```diff
+export default defineNuxtModule({
+  components: [
+    {
+      path: '~/components',
++     extensions: ['.vue'],

+If you want to auto-import components based only on its name, not path, then you need to set `pathPrefix` option to `false` using extended form of the configuration object:

+```diff

+
+This registers the components using the same strategy as used in Nuxt 2. For example, `~/components/Some/MyComponent.vue` will be usable as `<MyComponent>` and not `<SomeMyComponent>`.

 ## Dynamic Components
 
 If you want to use the Vue `<component :is="someComputedComponent">` syntax, then you will need to use the `resolveComponent` helper provided by Vue.
