import { pluginModuleFederation } from '@module-federation/rsbuild-plugin';
import { defineConfig } from '@rsbuild/core';
import { pluginReact } from '@rsbuild/plugin-react';

export default defineConfig({

      },
      shared: ['react', 'react-dom'],
    }),
  ],
});

Rslib Module

rslib.config.ts
import { pluginModuleFederation } from '@module-federation/rsbuild-plugin';
import { defineConfig } from '@rslib/core';

export default defineConfig({
  lib: [
    // ...
    {
      format: 'mf',
      output: {
        distPath: {
          root: './dist/mf',
        },
        assetPrefix: 'xxx',
      },
      plugins: [
        // ...
        pluginModuleFederation({
          name: 'rslib_provider',
          exposes: {
            '.': './src/index.tsx',
          },
          shared: {
            react: {
              singleton: true,
            },
            'react-dom': {
              singleton: true,
            },
          },
        }),
      ],
    },
  ],
});

Note

If you need to use the Module Federation runtime capabilities, please install @module-federation/enhanced

Configuration

  • Type:
export declare const pluginModuleFederation: (moduleFederationOptions: ModuleFederationOptions, rsbuildOptions?: RSBUILD_PLUGIN_OPTIONS) => RsbuildPlugin;

type RSBUILD_PLUGIN_OPTIONS = {
  ssr?: boolean;
}

moduleFederationOptions

Module Federation Configuration

rsbuildOptions

Additional configuration for the Rsbuild plugin.

ssr

TIP

Only supports Rslib global plugins.

  • Type: boolean

  • Default: false

Enables the generation of SSR artifacts.

Example:

First, create an Rslib project using npm create module-federation@next:

# Here, three parameters (template, role, name) are passed. You can also run npm create module-federation@latest directly and follow the prompts.
npm create module-federation@next -- --template provider-rslib --role provider --name rslib_ssr_provider

Then, modify the rslib.config.ts configuration to add ssr:true:

rslib.config.ts
- plugins: [pluginReact(), pluginModuleFederation(moduleFederationConfig)],
+ plugins: [pluginReact(), pluginModuleFederation(moduleFederationConfig, { ssr: true })],

Install dependencies and start the project:

pnpm install
pnpm run mf-dev

This will generate a dist/mf/ssr directory containing the SSR artifacts.

Then, refer to the Create a Modern.js Consumer section to create a consumer, reference the Rslib SSR provider, and then start project development.
