The built library does not include assets correctly in nx project？ about nx

hi, Is there any progress on the issue? @jaysoo

Hi @luojinghui, the @nx/vite:build doesn't support assets. Our philosophy is to rely on the underlying tool as much as possible, so in this case I would configure assets in vite.config.ts instead. Maybe something like this would help: https://www.npmjs.com/package/vite-plugin-static-copy

I think we can add a plugin for this and configure vite.config.ts automatically for JS libs. That would be a new feature.

I opened a PR for this. You can configure the plugin like:

// Copies all markdown files to dist
nxCopyAssetsPlugin(['*.md'])

In the meantime I think vite-plugin-static-copy will still work.

Thank you. Actually, I tried to solve the problem with the two plugins rollup-plugin-copy and vite-plugin-static-copy before. Unfortunately, they both had problems. It seemed that the problem was caused by the timing difference between nx build and plugin execution. In the end, the specified *.md resource was not successfully copied to the destination.

So later I tried to execute a custom nodejs script after the nx build was completed to solve the problem, but it was not so elegant.

Thank you for providing another idea. I tried to upgrade the @nx/vite version to: @nx/[email protected], but did not find the corresponding plugin: @nx/vite/plugins/nx-copy-assets.plugin. Which version do I need to install?
