Import Alias

import { sum } from "~server/utils/math.ts";

import { rand } from "#server/utils/math.ts";

export default () => {
  const [a, b] = [rand(1, 10), rand(1, 10)];
  const result = sum(a, b);
  return `The sum of ${a} + ${b} = ${result}`;
};

Import aliases like ~ and # let you reference modules with shorter paths instead of relative imports.

Importingi Using Aliases

import { sum } from "~server/utils/math.ts";

import { rand } from "#server/utils/math.ts";

export default () => {
  const [a, b] = [rand(1, 10), rand(1, 10)];
  const result = sum(a, b);
  return `The sum of ${a} + ${b} = ${result}`;
};

The route imports the sum function using ~server/ and rand using #server/. Both resolve to the same server/utils/math.ts file. The handler generates two random numbers and returns their sum.

Configuration

Aliases can be configured in package.json imports field or nitro.config.ts.
