vue-django-webpack-boilerplate
@NdagiStanley has mirrored the fork to have this repo here. This starterpack has proved useful to many and I thank you for the emails I have received from all of you. The reasoning behind this mirror is that this is an effort to support the users more by develop further on this project. From here on, I am calling on all potential collaborators by making it easier to make PRs and adding utility of Issues in this 'new' repo (Of course with the same name :) ). Lastly, just so you know, I'll be keeping up with developments in the
original
.
A full-featured Webpack setup with hot-reload, lint-on-save, unit testing & css extraction integrated into a django application
Vue CLI Version Notice
If you are using [email protected]
, it will be pulling the master
branch of this template by default. If you are using [email protected]
, it will be pulling the dist
branch instead, which provides more configurable options thanks to new features in [email protected]
. It is recommended to upgrade vue-cli
as soon as you can.
VueJS Templates Documentation
Common topics are discussed in the docs. Make sure to read it!
Vue Django
https://vuedjango.herokuapp.com/ is a deployed instance of this boilerplate.
Usage of VueDjango
This is a project template that includes VueJS
and Django
based on the vue-cli templates. It is recommended to use npm 3+ for a more efficient dependency tree.
$ npm install -g vue-cli
You might want to use sudo
if you encounter permissions error
$ vue init NdagiStanley/vue-django my-project
$ cd my-project
$ npm install
Secondly, have Python installed and preferably create a virtual environment for the project.
To develop
$ npm run dev
Deploy
To deploy your django project
$ .deploy.sh
Then get to localhost:8000. You should have a page exactly like the image below or as the deployed instance mentioned earlier: https://vuedjango.herokuapp.com/
Docker
Ensure that docker is running.
If you use docker
in your workflow, there is a Dockerfile
in the root directory for you. Simply run
docker build -t [image-name] .
Use your preferred image name in place of the image-name
in the command. Remember to enter the trailing period before running it.
There is a docker container for vue-django that you can run. Simply run the following command.
docker run -p 8000:8000 stanmd/vue-django python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
Then get to localhost:8000. You should have a page exactly like the image above
