## Summary
Establishes distribution-specific code pattern using compile-time
constants and dead code elimination. Demonstrates with Help Center by
hiding extension manager and update buttons in cloud distribution.
Below commentary makes assumption that minifcation and tree-shaking is
enabled (which isn't true yet, but will be eventually).
## Changes
- **What**: Added `src/platform/distribution/types.ts` with distribution
detection via `__DISTRIBUTION__` variable
- **Build**: Vite replaces `__DISTRIBUTION__` at build time using
environment variables
- **Tree-shaking**: All code not relevant to target distribution is
DCR'd and eliminated from bundle
- **Example**: Help Center hides "Manager Extension" menu item and
"Update" buttons in cloud builds
## Pattern
This PR defines a `__DISTRIBUTION__` variable which gets replaced at
build time by Vite using environment variables. All code not relevant to
the given distribution is then DCR'd and tree-shaken.
For simple cases (like this Help Center PR), import `isCloud` and use
compile-time conditionals:
```typescript
import { isCloud } from '@/platform/distribution/types'
if (!isCloud) {
items.push({
key: 'manager',
action: async () => {
await useManagerState().openManager({ ... })
}
})
}
```
The code is DCR'd at build time so there's zero runtime overhead - we
don't even incur the `if (isCloud)` cost because Terser eliminates it.
For complex services later, we'll add interfaces and use an index.ts
that exports different implementations under the same alias per
distribution. It will resemble a DI container but simpler since we don't
need runtime discovery like backend devs do. This guarantees types and
makes testing easier.
Example for services:
```typescript
// src/platform/storage/index.ts
import { isCloud } from '@/platform/distribution/types'
if (isCloud) {
export { CloudStorage as StorageService } from './cloud'
} else {
export { LocalStorage as StorageService } from './local'
}
```
Example for component variants:
```typescript
// src/components/downloads/index.ts
import { isCloud } from '@/platform/distribution/types'
if (isCloud) {
export { default as DownloadButton } from './DownloadButton.cloud.vue'
} else {
export { default as DownloadButton } from './DownloadButton.desktop.vue'
}
```
## Implementation Details
Distribution types (`src/platform/distribution/types.ts`):
```typescript
type Distribution = 'desktop' | 'localhost' | 'cloud'
declare global {
const __DISTRIBUTION__: Distribution
}
const DISTRIBUTION: Distribution = __DISTRIBUTION__
export const isCloud = DISTRIBUTION === 'cloud'
```
Vite configuration adds the define:
```typescript
const DISTRIBUTION = (process.env.DISTRIBUTION || 'localhost') as
| 'desktop'
| 'localhost'
| 'cloud'
export default defineConfig({
define: {
__DISTRIBUTION__: JSON.stringify(DISTRIBUTION)
}
})
```
## Build Commands
```bash
pnpm build # localhost (default)
DISTRIBUTION=cloud pnpm build # cloud
DISTRIBUTION=desktop pnpm build # desktop
```
## Future Applications
This pattern can be used with auth or telemetry services - which will
guarantee all the telemetry code, for example, is not even in the code
distributed in OSS Comfy whatsoever while still being able to develop
off `main`.
