Vite Plugins	Using Vite Plugins in Nuxt	Learn how to integrate Vite plugins into your Nuxt project.

While Nuxt modules offer extensive functionality, sometimes a specific Vite plugin might meet your needs more directly.

First, we need to install the Vite plugin, for our example, we'll use @rollup/plugin-yaml:

::package-managers

npm install @rollup/plugin-yaml

yarn add @rollup/plugin-yaml

pnpm add @rollup/plugin-yaml

bun add @rollup/plugin-yaml

::

Next, we need to import and add it to our nuxt.config.ts file:

import yaml from '@rollup/plugin-yaml'

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  vite: {
    plugins: [
      yaml()
    ]
  }
})

Now we installed and configured our Vite plugin, we can start using YAML files directly in our project.

For example, we can have a config.yaml that stores configuration data and import this data in our Nuxt components:

::code-group

greeting: "Hello, Nuxt with Vite!"

<script setup>
import config from '~/data/hello.yaml'
</script>

<template>
  <h1>{{ config.greeting }}</h1>
</template>
