Vite.php is not using custom manifest file generated by laravel-vite-plugin

[ngstwr]

• Laravel Version: 9.32
• PHP Version: 8.1

Description:

Vite.php has 'manifest.json' hardcoded in manifestPath method!

protected function manifestPath($buildDirectory)
{
return public_path($buildDirectory.'/manifest.json');
}

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Install laravel-vite-plugin
   yarn add laravel-vite-plugin -D

2. Change manifest file name to 'custom-manifest.json' in vite.config.js
   build: {
   manifest: 'custom-manifest.json',
   }

3. Build the application
   yarn prod

Seems like this is a feature request. Feel free to send in a PR 👍

I don't understand how is this a feature request!

An official plugin 'laravel-vite-plugin', is generating the manifest file and Vite.php facade is using the same manifest file to map and provide resources.

Now, laravel-vite-plugin provides an option to generate manifest, named as per user provided configuration. However Vite.php hasn't been updated to allow this.

Anyway, I don't have a problem sending in a PR, but I am new to Laravel and have no idea on how to write tests!
