It seems that vite build command doesn't run tests (unit tests written with vitest, for example) before building the application for production. This is quite unsafe.
Is there a way to configure vite build to run tests before trying to build ?
I couldn't find anything in Build Options.
What do you have in your package.json, scripts section? Don't you have some test or alike?
build is used to bundle your app and ship it to production. It's not supposed to run any tests by default.
You could achieve this by doing something like
"scripts": {
"build": "vite build && npm run test:unit && npm run test:e2e",
"test:unit": "vitest --environment jsdom",
"test:e2e": "start-server-and-test preview http://localhost:4173/ 'cypress open --e2e'",
},
If you generate a new project via the CLI, you will have most of them already written for you, then it's a matter of properly chaining them with && to assure that they are all succeeding before proceeding further.
You can also add some Git hooks with something like husky + lintstaged so that your flow is using something by default before even pushing it to a remote repo.
Otherwise, it's part of your CI. Either it be a Docker compose file, some Github actions, Gitlab pipelines or anything your devops team could have setup for your deploy environments.
While production of my file am using
npm run build -- --c prod
npm run build -- --c --prod
above both that --prod and prod difference i need , while run both has been running but --prod fast and prod system hang and taking time and can any one clarify me about using (--)in command prompt
The --prod option will make Angular to make the application much smaller in size.
This is the reason why --prod is faster.
From documentation:
--prod=true|false
Shorthand for "--configuration=production". When true, sets the build configuration to the production target. By default, the production target is set up in the workspace configuration such that all builds make use of bundling, limited tree-shaking, and also limited dead code elimination.
For < Angular 5:
ng build --prod --build-optimizer
What I've done so far:
I've been trying to setup multiple build modes like staging, testing, production and development based on NODE_ENV=production. So I'm keeping the respective files in the root of the project folder like:
.env.production
.env.staging
.env.testing
.env.development
Now, all these files are having
NODE_ENV=production
VUE_APP_ENV=<mode>
The document that I followed clearly states that,
vue-cli-service build --mode staging builds a production app in
staging mode, using .env, .env.staging and .env.staging.local if they
are present.
Problem:
As expected, running the command npm run build --mode staging is to give a production build with variable as listed in the .env.staging file. However, production variables are loaded instead of staging.
Ref:
https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/mode-and-env.html#example-staging-mode
https://forum.vuejs.org/t/how-to-build-production-app-with-varying-config/29708
You need to use the following command
npm run build -- --mode staging
All arguments before -- are considered npm arguments and arguments after -- are passed to vue-cli-service
I was having the same problem, I figured out my problem was from using a beta version (3.0.0-beta.9) of #vue/cli-service so changing it to the rc version (3.0.0-rc.3) worked. So in my package.json under devDependencies I changed it to "#vue/cli-service": "^3.0.0-rc.3"
What should I do after developing a Vue app with vue-cli?
In Angular there was some command that bundle all the scripts into one single script.
Is there something the same in Vue?
I think you've created your project like this:
vue init webpack myproject
Well, now you can run
npm run build
Copy index.html and /dist/ folder into your website root directory. Done.
If you've created your project using:
vue init webpack myproject
You'd need to set your NODE_ENV to production and run, because the project has web pack configured for both development and production:
NODE_ENV=production npm run build
Copy dist/ directory into your website root directory.
If you're deploying with Docker, you'd need an express server, serving the dist/ directory.
Dockerfile
FROM node:carbon
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
ADD . /usr/src/app
RUN npm install
ENV NODE_ENV=production
RUN npm run build
# Remove unused directories
RUN rm -rf ./src
RUN rm -rf ./build
# Port to expose
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "npm", "start" ]
in your terminal
npm run build
and you host the dist folder. for more see this video
To deploy your application to prod environment add
"build": "vue-cli-service build --mode prod"
in your scripts in package.json file.
Open your main.js and add
Vue.config.productionTip = false;
right after your imports.
Then open your cli in the project folder and run this command
npm run build
This will make a dist folder in your project directory you may upload that dist folder in your host and your website will be live
If you run into problems with your path, maybe you need to change the assetPublicPath in your config/index.js file to your sub-directory:
http://vuejs-templates.github.io/webpack/backend.html
The vue documentation provides a lot of information on this on how you can deploy to different host providers.
npm run build
You can find this from the package json file. scripts section. It provides scripts for testing and development and building for production.
You can use services such as netlify which will bundle your project by linking up your github repo of the project from their site. It also provides information on how to deploy on other sites such as heroku.
You can find more details on this here
The commands for what specific codes to run are listed inside your package.json file under scripts. Here is an example of mine:
"scripts": {
"serve": "vue-cli-service serve",
"build": "vue-cli-service build",
"lint": "vue-cli-service lint"
},
If you are looking to run your site locally, you can test it with
npm serve
If you are looking to prep your site for production, you would use
npm build
This command will generate a dist folder that has a compressed version of your site.

URL/myApp/) - I looked for a longtime to find this answer...hope it helps someone.
Get the VUE CLI at https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/ and use the UI build to make it easy. Then in configuration you can change the public path to /whatever/ and link to it URL/whatever.

For NPM => npm run Build
For Yarn => yarn run build
You also can check scripts in package.json file
You write down the below command being at the project root.
npm run build
First Install Vue Cli Globally
npm install -g #vue/cli
To create a new project, run:
vue create project-name
run vue
npm run serve
Vue CLI >= 3 uses the same vue binary, so it overwrites Vue CLI 2 (vue-cli). If you still need the legacy vue init functionality, you can install a global bridge:
Vue Init Globally
npm install -g #vue/cli-init
vue init now works exactly the same as vue-cli#2.x
Vue Create App
vue init webpack my-project
Run developer server
npm run dev
This command is for start the development server :
npm run dev
Where this command is for the production build :
npm run build
Make sure to look and go inside the generated folder called 'dist'.
Then start push all those files to your server.
One way to do this without using VUE-CLI is to bundle the all script files into one fat js file and then reference that big fat javascript file into main template file.
I prefer to use webpack as a bundler and create a webpack.conig.js in the root directory of project. All the configs such as entry point, output file, loaders, etc.. are all stored in that config file. After that, I add a script in package.json file that uses webpack.config.js file for webpack configs and start watching files and create a Js bundled file into mentioned location in webpack.config.js file.
I think you can use vue-cli
If you are using Vue CLI along with a backend framework that handles static assets as part of its deployment, all you need to do is making sure Vue CLI generates the built files in the correct location, and then follow the deployment instruction of your backend framework.
If you are developing your frontend app separately from your backend - i.e. your backend exposes an API for your frontend to talk to, then your frontend is essentially a purely static app. You can deploy the built content in the dist directory to any static file server, but make sure to set the correct baseUrl
npm run build - this will uglify and minify the codes
save index.html and dist folder in root directory of your website.
free hosting service that you might be interested in -- Firebase hosting.
if you used vue-cli and webpack when you created your project.
you can use just
npm run build command in command line, and it will create dist folder in your project. Just upload content of this folder to your ftp and done.
If you are using npm u can use npm run build but if you are using yarn you can simply run yarn build
If you want to create a build for a domain, you can use the $ npm run build command.
If you're going to build for a sub-domain, follow these instructions:
Create a file that's name is vue.config.js in the root
Write down the below code in the vue.config.js file:
module.export = {
publicPath: '/demo-project',
}
Now run $ npm run build
Note: Use your subdomain name instead of "/demo-project".
If you want to build and send to your remote server you can use cli-service (https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/cli-service.html) you can create tasks to serve, build and one to deploy with some specific plugins as vue-cli-plugin-s3-deploy
