[esbuild-renderer] static files

[usaccounts]

Need to be able to import js files in html - cannot do that because source is a bundle - a single js file. One should be able to import static js files - perhaps a static directory would be useful and served by the proxy. Or have a way to create multiple bundles.

Also css.

• For webpack, dev-server allow static files
• For esbuild, I'll need to do something myself
• For vite, dev server allow static files.

This will come in next releases

I have been trying to use WebWorker but it seems this feature needs to be supported internally first.
On 2nd thought, this is a little bit different than what the OP was asking.

I haven't found the time to work on this issue. Helps are welcome!

I'm still ramping up to esbuild, but could esbuild external option be used? Or potentially the same way preload.js is done in the main-ts template, making the js a separate entry point and then referencing it by path?

You could add support for an optional path-option for static files in the yaml renderer-config or reuse output.dir and then use one of them in esbuild.builder as servedir property in ctx.serve() (line 106)

ctx
    .serve({
        host,
        port,
        servedir: path.resolve(this._config.fileConfig.staticPath or this._config.fileConfig.output.dir),
    })
