feat!: port build internals from unbuild to tsdown - #811
this is phase 1 of preparing for @nuxt/module-builder v2. it picks up where #751 left off (thanks to @DamianGlowala ❤️)
the key change is that this moves the build internals to use tsdown and rolldown.
I've tried to keep this as non-breaking as possible, so build and prepare still work with no config file, and after a build, dist/ should have the same file list
I'll update this shortly with a longer list of the breaking changes and the migration required (but you can also see the migration guide in the docs of the PR)
the module entry is now bundled tsdown
runtime/ directories go through a new rolldown plugin, transpileDir, registered on that same build, which transpiles each file on its own with oxc, runs .vue files through vue-sfc-transformer/core, processes stylesheets with lightningcss/sass, copies everything else, and emits declarations from one TypeScript program per tsconfig project.
it is published as @nuxt/module-builder/rolldown for now - I plan to lift it out later into a separate library (in nuxt-contrib?) so it can be used by nuxt's own runtime build
⚠️ breaking changes
change
what to do
tsdown is a peer dependency
pnpm add -D tsdown
engines.node is ^22.18.0 || >=24.0.0
use Node 22.18+ or 24.11+
build.config.ts options with no tsdown equivalent fail the build (entries, externals, replace and the build:before/rollup:done/build:done hooks still work)
move entries to package.jsonbuild.entries, drop the rest
type errors that affect emitted declarations fail the build
annotate the exports the error lists
runtime stylesheets go through lightningcss
nothing, unless you relied on a postcss plugin
unbuild, mkdist, jiti, defu and magic-regexp are no longer dependencies
import defineBuildConfig from @nuxt/module-builder if you still have a build.config.ts
if you hit any errors, hopefully it will include a link to the section of docs/upgrade-v2.md that says what to change.
I validated the guide by upgrading color-mode, robots, content, i18n and icon with it, and had an agent build 14 ecosystem modules against this branch (ui, scripts, image, robots, color-mode, mdc, og-image, icon, i18n, content, nuxt-auth-utils, security, pinia, nuxt-auth).
a few fixes that this brings:
a .ts file importing from a .vue file keeps its inferred type (for example, nuxt/ui's useFormField is now strongly/correctly typed)
module.json generation no longer dies if the module entry imports runtime code
--stub doesn't need a bundler any more
build runs prepare first when .nuxt is missing, warns about any missing files
bracketed runtime file names (server/api/[id].get.ts) are kept
The build command now uses tsdown for regular builds and a separate stub-build path. The changes add a Rolldown plugin that transpiles runtime directories and processes scripts, Vue files, stylesheets, assets, imports, and declarations. They also add support for selected legacy build settings, package-path diagnostics, and declaration rewriting. Package exports, dependencies, and Node.js engine requirements change. The README, upgrade guide, example, CI workflow, and tests are updated to cover the new build behavior.
Emitted runtime scripts that import compiled Sass files can leave imports pointing at files absent from dist, which breaks consuming Nuxt apps. A CI test timeout and a Node engines range wider than tsdown supports are still open. Resolve the Sass import rewriting before merging; the tsconfig and outDir issues are smaller follow-ups.

Explanation
Issue [#726] asks whether module-builder will migrate to obuild or tsdown. The pull request implements the migration to tsdown and rolldown, updates the build pipeline and package exports, and adds build, runtime, declaration, and integration tests. The issue has no further coding acceptance criteria.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes remain within the migration scope of [#726]. Build configuration handling, runtime transpilation, declarations, stylesheets, documentation, fixtures, CI updates, and tests support the tsdown and rolldown migration. No unrelated product change is demonstrated. pnpm-lock.yaml is excluded from review, so its contents do not establish an out-of-scope change.

Review comments at @src/rolldown/tsconfig.ts:
- Line 21: Resolve a supplied relative tsconfig `file` against `dir` before
constructing `root`; use the resolved path for both `root.path` and
`parseTsconfig` so references and derived `extends` resolve from the correct
location. Preserve the existing `getTsconfig(dir)` fallback when no file is
supplied.
Review comments at @test/rolldown.spec.ts:
- Line 123: Normalise recursive `readdir` results to forward-slash separators
before applying filters or comparing snapshots in the affected tests in
`rolldown.spec.ts`. Reuse a shared listing helper for those calls, and apply the
same normalisation to the corresponding recursive listings in `build.spec.ts`,
preserving the existing filters and expectations.
Review comments at @test/unit.spec.ts:
- Around line 456-457: Update the generated script in the `importModule` test to
import the loader via a file URL, converting `loader` with `pathToFileURL` from

output behaviour.
- Around line 494-520: Reduce the TypeScript diagnostic workload in the test
“should type imports of generated aliases as `any` under `strict`, in referenced
projects too” without weakening its assertions; focus on the `diagnostics`
helper and its `ts.createProgram` inputs so checks remain limited to the
relevant source and projects. If that cannot reduce runtime safely, isolate this
test from the concurrent build suite to reduce CPU contention, rather than only
increasing the timeout.

Align engines.node with the tsdown floor.
engines.node accepts Node 24.0–24.10. docs/upgrade-v2.md line 7 states that tsdown needs ^22.18.0 || ^24.11.0 || >=26.0.0. Every non-stub build imports tsdown. On Node 24.0–24.10, a package manager therefore installs v2 without an engine warning, and the build then fails or misbehaves. test:engines ignores tsdown with -i tsdown, so CI does not detect this mismatch.
IMPORTANT
Review the replacement and indentation, then test before committing.

Prevent this test from timing out in CI.
This test timed out in the Ubuntu and engines-floor jobs. It creates two TypeScript programs and checks all their pre-emit diagnostics. The build suite starts 20 commands concurrently, which may increase CPU contention if the files overlap.
Reduce the diagnostic work without weakening the assertions, or isolate the build suite to reduce contention. Do not only increase the timeout.

Fail the fixture setup when a fixture build fails.
Only the routes chain (lines 521-525) passes throwOnError. The other commands in Promise.all ignore their exit codes. A failed fixture build therefore shows up later as an unrelated ENOENT or snapshot mismatch, and the build output is lost. None of these commands is expected to fail. Pass throwOnError: true to each of them, or check the exitCode and print stdout/stderr when it is not zero.

Use the module root, not process.cwd(), for the non-erasable syntax report.
The CLI normally runs from another directory, for example nuxt-module-build build --stub ./example. findNonErasableSyntax(process.cwd(), …) then reads the tsconfig paths of the wrong directory. Files that are imported through aliases are not followed, so the list is incomplete. A second warning can also appear later for those files. The reported paths are also relative to the wrong root. importModule already receives options.cwd. Pass that value to transpile and use it in both places.
Proposed change
-function transpile(url: string) {+function transpile(url: string, cwd = process.cwd()) {
@@
- const found = findNonErasableSyntax(process.cwd(), [filename])+ const found = findNonErasableSyntax(cwd, [filename])
for (const { file } of found) {
- reportedNonErasable.add(resolve(process.cwd(), file))+ reportedNonErasable.add(resolve(cwd, file))
}
At the call on line 92, use transpile(url, options.cwd).

A re-export such as export { default as theme } from '#build/ui/button' adds default to names. The generated export const default = stub is invalid syntax. This can prevent module.json generation and fail a stub build. Reserved words such as for also cannot be declared with const.
The stub already exports default. Export the other names as aliases of stub.

Write cached files atomically.
When no local route table exists, the parallel TypeScript worker can read the server-routes stub while directory declaration setup rewrites it. The worker may see an empty or partial file, causing declaration errors or incorrect inferred types.
Skip the write only when the existing file has the expected contents. Otherwise, write a temporary file and rename it.
Suggested fix
-import { mkdir, writeFile } from 'node:fs/promises'+import { mkdir, readFile, rename, writeFile } from 'node:fs/promises'

Update writeCached to avoid rewriting the cached file when it already contains the expected contents; otherwise, write the contents to a unique temporary file in the same directory and rename it over the target so readers never observe a partial write. Preserve the existing directory creation and return behaviour.

Do not delete an outDir that contains the module root.
outDir is resolve(cwd, options.outDir) from the CLI. When --outDir . or a parent path is passed, this call deletes the module source and package.json recursively. The failure handler at line 159 does the same. The deletion is irreversible. Reject an outDir that equals or contains cwd before any deletion.
Proposed guard
const outDir = resolve(cwd, options.outDir)
+ if (!relative(outDir, cwd).startsWith('..')) {+ throw new Error(`Refusing to build into \`${options.outDir}\`: it contains the module root \`${cwd}\`.`)+ }

Rewrite imports of compiled Sass files to their .css output.
The constructor at lines 248-251 plans styles/theme.scss as styles/theme.css. This method returns a replacement only for script and .vue targets, so import '../styles/theme.scss' stays in the emitted JS. The dist directory contains no theme.scss. A consuming Nuxt app therefore fails to resolve the import when it bundles the runtime plugin.
test/build.spec.ts lines 838-842 assert this dangling specifier, and lines 821-827 confirm that theme.scss is not emitted. Update that assertion together with this fix.

Expand ${configDir} against the derived tsconfig.
When rebasing a config that extends a shared base, absoluteOptions expands ${configDir} against the base directory. This can produce incorrect rootDir and paths values.

resolves #726
📚 Description
this is phase 1 of preparing for
@nuxt/module-builderv2. it picks up where #751 left off (thanks to @DamianGlowala ❤️)the key change is that this moves the build internals to use
tsdownandrolldown.I've tried to keep this as non-breaking as possible, so
buildandpreparestill work with no config file, and after a build,dist/should have the same file listI'll update this shortly with a longer list of the breaking changes and the migration required (but you can also see the migration guide in the docs of the PR)
the module entry is now bundled tsdown
runtime/directories go through a new rolldown plugin,transpileDir, registered on that same build, which transpiles each file on its own with oxc, runs.vuefiles throughvue-sfc-transformer/core, processes stylesheets with lightningcss/sass, copies everything else, and emits declarations from one TypeScript program per tsconfig project.it is published as

docs/upgrade-v2.mdthat says what to change.I validated the guide by upgrading color-mode, robots, content, i18n and icon with it, and had an agent build 14 ecosystem modules against this branch (ui, scripts, image, robots, color-mode, mdc, og-image, icon, i18n, content, nuxt-auth-utils, security, pinia, nuxt-auth).
a few fixes that this brings:
