Vite built-in env inconsistent with typing

[melishev]

In the vite-inv.d.ts file, I get content like this:

/// <reference types="vite-envs/client" />

type ImportMetaEnv = {
  // Auto-generated by `npx vite-envs update-types` and hot-reloaded by the `vite-env` plugin
  // You probably want to add `/src/vite-env.d.ts` to your .prettierignore
  BASE_URL: string
  MODE: string
  DEV: boolean
  PROD: boolean

The problem is that when calling import.meta.env.PROD I will get a string, which seems to be normal behavior for an environment variable, so why the confusion?

Hello @melishev,

This is a bug. Thank you for reporting it. I'll release a new version with a fix

It's fixed in 4.3.3.
The runtime values you're getting matches the type definitions.

Aditionally this release makes vite-envs self contained. (It won't add any thing to your node module but itself)
