is the gem compatible with react-rails?

[killernova]

We have an old project using react-rails gem for Reactjs with webpacker, and we want to move to vite, anyone has experience with vite_ruby and react-rails?

Hi there!

I haven't used react-rails, but the server-side rendering functionality seems to depend on webpacker.

The react_ujs library it provides seems to rely on either globals or Webpack's require.context.

If you are not using server-side rendering and are not using require.context, then it should be possible for you to migrate your react-rails project to Vite.

Otherwise, react-rails won't work out of the box with Vite, and requires additional work to integrate with Vite Ruby.

I'd suggest contacting the authors to check if they would be interested—it should be possible to allow passing a glob instead of require.context to "register" the available components.
