Setting quasar.config.js > build > sourcemap to `true` can't create a separate sourcemap file.

[dongwa]

What happened?

I want to test the configuration item of SourceMap. I found that when I set quasar.config.js > build > sourcemap to true, there was no separate sourcemap file in the dist/spa folder as described in the document：

If true, a separate sourcemap file will be created.

What did you expect to happen?

I don't know whether this is a document description error or quasar CLI behavior mistake, I think they should be consistent

How to reproduce?

1. Using Quasar CLI with vite to create a project
2. set quasar.config.js > build > sourcemap: true
3. run quasar build
4. see files in dist/spa/assets,There is no separate documents mentioned in the map file

The relevant Vite documentation is at https://vitejs.dev/config/build-options.html#build-sourcemap and Quasar is just reflecting the Vite documentation

Sooo.... it seems that Quasar is neither doing what its own docs say nor the Vite docs and is defaulting to "inline" when the config is true. Moreover, there seems to be no possible way of actually passing true through to Vite and therefore no way of generating separate sourcemap file.

Suggested code fix would simply be sourcemap: build.sourcemap ?? false

For those that are looking for a quick workaround, one can fortunately do sourcemap: 'true'

By setting it to a string, the quasar code passes it through (due to use of ===) but the vite code will respect the truthiness
