I've a problem with a Vue-js application (Vue 2.6.6).
I need to create a new page in this application that must not be affected by vuetify and other styles placed in the head of index.html file. I wanna now if it is possible to inject a view (navigating to it with routing) without applying styles or if it is possible to create another entry point for the app, making it as a multi-page application.
I've found a documentation for doing it, but the structure of files and folders they talk about is different from mine (I did not create the project) and I don't understand what I gotta do to set multiple pages.
https://cli.vuejs.org/config/#pages
I have a "main-priv.js" file inside src, not a "main.js", don't know if it is same.
I'm really bad with configurations and stuff like that, I've probabily taken the wrong life choice with this work, but nevermind, can you help me?
I'm using Nuxt to build a component library for use with the various CMSs that my company uses. Basically, I want to use the generated HTML to create reusable widgets for the CMS. The CMSs in question can't use Vue components directly because the client's admin area doesn't play well with Vue (for example, the inline editor in Kentico 12 does not work at all with Vue and our clients require this functionality).
Using Nuxt to build the component library works great as long as the components don't DO anything. However, if I want to create an accordion that has an #click event, it doesn't work when loaded into the CMS. I narrowed down the issue:
A) http://example.com/Accordions/
B) http://example.com/Accordions/index.html
Case A works fine. With Case B, the page loads but none of the scripts work. The events do not fire at all, and I'm getting the following error:
"DOMException: Failed to execute 'appendChild' on 'Node': This node type does not support this method."
The Accordions component doesn't work on any page that is not http://example.com/Accordions/.
Nuxt is generating the Accordions/index.html page so I'm assuming it's connecting the route with the functionality in the JS, but I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, what to search for or how to fix it. I've been searching for hours. Can anyone help me with this?
I'm developing Nuxt universal application, where I have two layouts one for control panel and one for frond-end UI.
And the thing I need is to register global components, but I need them to be only global for specific layout, couse I dont want to download unnecesary scripts on my front-end app in its bundle.
Is there some way to do that?
According to docs global component's are registered on Vue prototype and will be accessible from any component within created Vue instance. That means, that as long you use single instance, all global registrations (components, filter, mixins, etc) will be shared.
So, the answer is that there is no easy way to do that, specially when Nuxt.js takes care of essential part of webpack configuration and route splitting.
Registering component's locally should be done, in order to optimize performance.
Another recommendation you might want to look at, is that even you optimize loading of components, application will still load all declared store modules, plugins, external libraries, etc. And the most important, from my experience, once automatic deployment has been setup for that application and some changes have to be deployed to control panel - whole site will have to go down for maintenance.
I would consider a good practice to separate front-end and control panel to their own apps, which keeps responsibility separated and is the only way to deliver best optimization to front-end part of application.
Control panel is usually available on a subdomain, but can be configured on the web server as a subfolder, e.g. domain.com/control-panel.
Two step can solve your problem:
make a global_component.js file into plugins directory
then add below code,
import Vue from 'vue'
import your_component from '../your component directory/your_component.vue'
Vue.component('your-component', your_component)
add this js file into Nuxt.config.js plugins block
plugins: ['#/plugins/global_component.js '],
now you can use your component into any template like below
<template>
<section class="container">
<your-component></your-component>
</section>
</template>
I just used the command line (CLI) to initialize a Vue.js project. The CLI created a src/components and src/views folder.
It has been a few months since I have worked with a Vue project and the folder structure seems new to me.
What is the difference between the views and components folders in a Vue project generated with vue-cli?
First of all, both folders, src/components and src/views, contain Vue components.
The key difference is that some Vue components act as Views for routing.
When dealing with routing in Vue, usually with Vue Router, routes are defined in order to switch the current view used in the <router-view> component. These routes are typically located at src/router/routes.js, where we can see something like this:
import Home from '#/views/Home.vue'
import About from '#/views/About.vue'
export default [
{
path: '/',
name: 'home',
component: Home,
},
{
path: '/about',
name: 'about',
component: About,
},
]
The components located under src/components are less likely to be used in a route whereas components located under src/views will be used by at least one route.
Vue CLI aims to be the standard tooling baseline for the Vue
ecosystem. It ensures the various build tools work smoothly together
with sensible defaults so you can focus on writing your app instead of
spending days wrangling with configurations. At the same time, it
still offers the flexibility to tweak the config of each tool without
the need for ejecting.
Vue CLI aims for rapid Vue.js development, it keeps things simple and offers flexibility. Its goal is to enable teams of varying skill levels to set up a new project and get started.
At the end of the day, it is a matter of convenience and application structure.
Some people like to have their Views folder under src/router like
this enterprise boilerplate.
Some people call it Pages instead of Views.
Some people have all their components under the same folder.
Choose the application structure that best suits the project you are working on.
I think its more of a convention. Something that is reusable can be kept in src/components folder something that is tied to router can be kept in src/views
Generally re-usable views are suggested to be placed in src/components directory. Examples like Header, Footer, Ads, Grids or any custom controls likes styled text boxes or buttons. One or more components can be accessed inside a view.
A View can have component(s) and a view is actually intended to be accessed by navigation url. They are generally placed in src/views.
Remember that you are not constrained to access the Components via url. You are free to add any component to the router.js and access it too. But if you are intended to do it so, you can move it to a src/views rather than placing it in src/components.
Components are user-controls in analogy to asp.net web forms.
Its just about structuring your code for better maintenance and readability.
Both folders are basically the same since they both hold components, but the aesthetic of Vue is that components that will function as pages (routed to like page for navigation) are kept in the /views folder, while reusable components like form fields are kept in the /components folder.
src/views is typically used for your main pages in the application that you navigate via router.
src/components is used for the reusable components that you use inside your main pages (multiple times inside the same page or across different pages)
Simple, Views are for routes while Components are components of the route.
You can consider Views like page and components are reusable block of code that you can use in any page or components (both are Vue files these terms are just for demonstration)
Less dynamic close to static pages is reffered to views and more reuseable and dynamic content is placed under the components.
It is quite simple, as mentioned by others: you usually use Views for the actual pages you want the user to navigate. Components are the elements inside those pages that you can reuse in any page of your project.
In my view, component folder must contain the components that are going to be used in the views. And in views, there must be those pages that are to be accessed by the router. For example, you have a navbar, header and a footer in your pages to be used and you have a login page, signup page and a main page. Then your src/components must contain header, footer and navbar. And in your src/views there must be files like login, signup and main file.
Both these folders hold Vue components, 'views' folder is supposed to contain root level components where other components would be imported. The so called 'other components' reside inside the 'components' folder. Let's take an example for illustration.
Suppose you have 3 root level pages for a website yourname.com
yourname.com
yourname.com/about
yourname.com/price
Your 'views' folder would have 3 components. 'about.vue', 'index.vue' and 'price.vue'. These files would be imported in your router file or could be directly imported in app.vue file for routing. These views could have multiple components inside them like 'price-card.vue', 'contact-card.vue' and more. These files would typically reside inside a folder named 'components'. You can import these components inside the vue files you have in the 'views' folder and then render them.
Nothing but to arrange the project in logical order. You can still create components in the view folder, but it's a better approach to separate items so that the code is less messy.
The difference is the function they perform. The views are used to represent your pages properly, that you can navigate back and forth, and the components are the parts that compose your page
Is it possible to use VusJS Components into Moqui Screens?
I know for sure that you can render Basic HTML but I wasn't able to find a hook for the VueJS app.
The need comes from the following scenario:
While form-single widget can be made collapsible, form-list cannot. So I wanted to use vue-collapsible (https://github.com/vue-comps/vue-collapsible) but I don't know where I am supposed to register the component.
If there's no way to use vue, maybe you can help me with my concrete issue.
In the 'vuet' render mode which is used in the /vapps path (as opposed to /apps) it isn't actually HTML sent to the client it is a Vue Template. If you look at the text returned by the server you'll see a number of Vue Components already being used (see the WebrootVue.js file for their source). You can see this in Chrome using the Sources or Network tab in the tools window or similar tools in other browsers. If you inspect an element you'll be looking at the rendered HTML, ie after Vue runs the components to change the Vue Template to HTML.
This means that if you include the necessary JavaScript file(s), and CSS file(s) if needed, then you can use any Vue component in the Vue Template returned. You can do this inline in XML Screen files using the render-mode.text element with the #type=vuet.
None of this runs under NPM in the way VueJS is used in Moqui Framework through XML Screens. In other words it isn't a pre-packaged Vue app with 100% client/browser rendering but rather is a hybrid client and server rendered approach.
You can include scripts in this Moqui hybrid approach using the script element with a #src attribute for the script file which the WebrootVue.js file loads on the fly. There are various examples of this for additional JS scripts like Chart.JS
