`generatePageImport` error handling path variable of win32 style

[Gehbt]

I tried running the example on repo in windows, an warning occurred. And vite serve is broken.

By tracing, It seems by the root.insert call node variable __dirname. It will return win32 style path \\unplugin-vue-router\\ , and path.join function keep the style.

When it written to / __vue-router/auto-routes by generatePageImport, path is converted to \unplugin-vue-router\. That caused backslash escape error.

• go to vite.config.js
• change join function import source to node:path

AFAIK shouldn’t this just work? Or maybe I could use the join from pathe

If the path as string, it can work, but it has been written to a file. Backslashes are transformed. For a Win32-style path, should prepare \\\\unplugin-vue-router\\\\.

[Gehbt]

By the example of playground

beforeWriteFiles(root) {
   root.insert('/from-root', join(__dirname, './src/pages/index.vue'))
}

In windows, __dirname like C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\unplugin-vue-router, the path.join follow the style.

Like '\n' be newLine, the generated code be:

"component: () => import('C:\Users\USERNAME\unplugin-vue-router\playground\src\pages\index.vue'"

the backslashes transform do wrong.

If kept the Win32-style path, the filepath should be transformed into a raw string.

'C:\\\\Users\\\\USERNAME\\\\unplugin-vue-router\\\\playground\\\\src\\\\pages\\\\index.vue'

A reproduction will still help for this. I don't have a windows to test right now thought

[Gehbt]

OK, I will do.

Was using WSL previously, when switch to windows, get the same error. In the codegen part in windows, the backward slash "" here was unexpected and should be use double \ to escape.

[Update]:

I think I can target it now. it looks like the routeMapRecord need to use double escaped windows path.

Fix as below:
@posva , i think the root insert here can place the same handling.

basically, in line https://github.com/posva/unplugin-vue-router/blob/main/src/codegen/generateRouteRecords.ts#L108C1-L109C1, we need something like below visually to make it work, kinda confusing.

also, this is valid too in modern Windows.
