### inputPath

> **inputPath**: `string`

Source: [packages/wxt/src/types.ts:924](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/7594a4ca5cae24d0d5d705ed0d3ff1347b306e7b/packages/wxt/src/types.ts#L924)

Absolute path to the entrypoint's input file.

### name

> **name**: `string`

Source: [packages/wxt/src/types.ts:922](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/7594a4ca5cae24d0d5d705ed0d3ff1347b306e7b/packages/wxt/src/types.ts#L922)

The entrypoint's name. This is the filename or dirname without the type
suffix.

Examples:

* `popup.html` → `popup`
* `options/index.html` → `options`
* `named.sandbox.html` → `named`
* `named.sandbox/index.html` → `named`
* `sandbox.html` → `sandbox`
* `sandbox/index.html` → `sandbox`
* `overlay.content.ts` → `overlay`
* `overlay.content/index.ts` → `overlay`

The name is used when generating an output file:
`<entrypoint.outputDir>/<entrypoint.name>.<ext>`

***

### outputDir

> **outputDir**: `string`

Source: [packages/wxt/src/types.ts:929](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/7594a4ca5cae24d0d5d705ed0d3ff1347b306e7b/packages/wxt/src/types.ts#L929)

Absolute path to the entrypoint's output directory. Can be
`wxt.config.outDir` or a subdirectory of it.

***

### skipped?

> `optional` **skipped?**: `boolean`

Source: [packages/wxt/src/types.ts:938](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/7594a4ca5cae24d0d5d705ed0d3ff1347b306e7b/packages/wxt/src/types.ts#L938)

When true, the entrypoint will not be built by WXT. Normally this is set
based on the `filterEntrypoints` config or the entrypoint's
`include`/`exclude` options defined inside the file.
