• Updated dependencies [bbf9b75]:
  • @tanstack/router-devtools-core@1.168.3

• #8863 01fab5a - The Rsbuild plugin keeps the app's server.compress setting instead of always setting it to false. Compression stays off by default: a compressed streamed page reaches the browser only once the stream ends. The optional @rsbuild/core peer is now ^2.0.5, the first version whose compression keeps SSR response headers intact.

• Updated dependencies [01fab5a, c5320d7, 545a8d3, da8c28c]:

  • @tanstack/start-plugin-core@1.171.56

• Updated dependencies [bbf9b75]:
  • @tanstack/router-devtools-core@1.168.3

• #8855 446ce1b - Require Node ^20.19.0 || >=22.12.0 (was >=20.19), so the CommonJS builds can load ESM-only dependencies through require(esm). Node 21 and Node 22.0–22.11 do not enable it by default, so they are no longer supported.

• #8857 ad5b3b7 - A pathless layout inside a route group (routes/(group)/_layout.tsx) or a route group's own layout (routes/(group)/route.tsx) is typed with the full path '/' in FileRoutesByPath, like the router gives it at runtime, instead of ''. When no index route claims /, the layout also appears under '/' in FileRoutesByFullPath and FileRoutesByTo, as a pathless layout outside a group already does.

• Updated dependencies [446ce1b, ff157f0]:

  • @tanstack/router-utils@1.163.0

• #8855 446ce1b - Require Node ^20.19.0 || >=22.12.0 (was >=20.19), so the CommonJS builds can load ESM-only dependencies through require(esm). Node 21 and Node 22.0–22.11 do not enable it by default, so they are no longer supported.

• #8867 ff157f0 - Parse decorators placed after export (export @dec class Store {}). A route file with one is now read by the route generator and split, instead of logging a parse error, leaving the route tree unwritten and the route unsplit. Start's compilers, which share the parser, accept it too.

• #8863 01fab5a - The Rsbuild plugin keeps the app's server.compress setting instead of always setting it to false. Compression stays off by default: a compressed streamed page reaches the browser only once the stream ends. The optional @rsbuild/core peer is now ^2.0.5, the first version whose compression keeps SSR response headers intact.

• #8869 d05c6c6 - Vite dev: Vue Start pre-bundles @tanstack/vue-router > @tanstack/vue-store, as React Start does for @tanstack/react-store. The first page load on a cold dependency cache no longer re-optimizes vue and reloads the page.

• Updated dependencies [01fab5a, c5320d7, 545a8d3, da8c28c]:

  • @tanstack/start-plugin-core@1.171.56

• Updated dependencies [1ba19a0, 94f36c4, 446ce1b, 533ca27, 13b6256, b5e2ac9, d250819, f420d4a]:
  • @tanstack/router-plugin@1.169.0

• #8855 446ce1b - Require Node ^20.19.0 || >=22.12.0 (was >=20.19), so the CommonJS builds can load ESM-only dependencies through require(esm). Node 21 and Node 22.0–22.11 do not enable it by default, so they are no longer supported.

• #8851 d250819 - Require Vite 6 or later: the vite peer range is now >=6.0.0. Vite 5 is no longer supported.

• 1ba19a0 - fix: webpack and Rspack production builds no longer put the code splitter's "will not be code-split" warning, with the route file's absolute path, into the client bundle when the build process's NODE_ENV isn't production. The bundler's mode decides, and a config without mode counts as production, as it does for webpack and Rspack. The warning still prints in the build output.

• #8852 94f36c4 - The esbuild plugin now throws when autoCodeSplitting is enabled, and TanStackRouterCodeSplitterEsbuild throws, instead of silently bundling every route without splitting. Route generation with esbuild is unchanged.

• #8856 533ca27 - Remove the undocumented plugin.hmr.style option and the HmrOptions type. Each bundler entry now picks its own HMR runtime: the webpack and Rspack entries already forced 'webpack', and on Vite, 'webpack' broke route HMR.

• #8853 13b6256 - Remove internal code-splitter APIs: the codeSplittingOptions.compilerPlugins option, and the root-entry exports unpluginRouterCodeSplitterFactory, getObjectPropertyKeyName, CodeSplitCompilerPlugin, ReferenceRouteCompilerPlugin, ReferenceRouteCompilerPluginContext and VirtualRouteSplitNodeCompilerPluginContext.

• #8860 b5e2ac9 - Source maps of split routes now point at the route file. On webpack and Rspack (including Rsbuild), a split component or shared code mapped to the wrong line, because unplugin's loader dropped the router plugin's map; unplugin now requires ^3.5.0, which keeps it. The maps of split and shared modules also name the route file itself instead of its ?tsr-split / ?tsr-shared module id, so debuggers bind breakpoints set in the route file.

• #8870 f420d4a - Vite route HMR now writes import.meta.hot.accept( out instead of calling it through a hot alias. Vite only treats a module as a hot boundary when the call is spelled out, so an edit of a route file no framework plugin accepts (a .ts route file, or an app without @vitejs/plugin-react) reloaded the page instead of updating the route in place. With React HMR, a route file that declares its own top-level hot binding no longer fails to compile with Duplicate declaration "hot".

• Updated dependencies [446ce1b, ad5b3b7, ff157f0]:

  • @tanstack/router-generator@1.168.0
  • @tanstack/router-utils@1.163.0

• #8863 01fab5a - The Rsbuild plugin keeps the app's server.compress setting instead of always setting it to false. Compression stays off by default: a compressed streamed page reaches the browser only once the stream ends. The optional @rsbuild/core peer is now ^2.0.5, the first version whose compression keeps SSR response headers intact.

• #8805 c5320d7 - With spa.enabled, the Rsbuild dev server answers the SPA shell, as Vite's dev server does, instead of rendering the route and running its loaders on the server.

• #8871 545a8d3 - Require exsolve ^1.1.3: a failed lookup that exsolve caches no longer keeps its callers alive, so Start's cached failed lookups no longer hold on to each build's objects. Entry lookups bypass exsolve's process-wide cache, so a dev server restart finds an entry file (such as src/start.ts) created since.

• #8861 da8c28c - Start's router options now reach the route generator and the code splitter as they do in a router app:

  • Generator plugins given as router.plugins run (#7768). Start's own generator plugins used to replace them.
  • A function-form router.routeTreeFileFooter is called at every print of the route tree. Start's Vite plugin used to print its first result for the whole dev server.
  • Start's Rsbuild plugin keeps router.codeSplittingOptions.deleteNodes for the server build. It used to drop the option there.
  • Start's Vite plugin finds the client route tree by its exact module id (#8839). With a regular-expression character in the project path, such as +, the client used to get the full route tree, server-only routes included; a file whose name differed from the route tree's by one character (routeTree-gen.ts) was replaced by the client route tree.

• Updated dependencies [1ba19a0, 94f36c4, 446ce1b, ad5b3b7, 533ca27, 13b6256, b5e2ac9, d250819, f420d4a, ff157f0]:
