Codecast's Single Page Application Starter Kit

Build Status

Cover

A highly opinionated Single Page Application starter kit built on top of Vue.js and Laravel.

This package contains two separate projects to act as a starting point for a Single Page Application: a Vue.js project (created with vue-cli + webpack template) and a Laravel 5.3 project.

They're not just freshly created projects but a fully working application that can be modified and expanded to become your own application.

Demo

The live demo can be found in https://spa.codecasts.rocks/.

Features

  1. Client side
    • Vue.js 2.0 project create with vue-cli + webpack template
    • Centralized state management with Vuex
    • Route management with Vue-router
    • Authentication with JWT
    • Keep user signed in using local stored info
    • HTTP requests with Axios
    • ESLint with AirBNB preset
    • Pagination integrated with Laravel's LengthAwarePaginator
    • Alerts and Confirmation Alerts provided by SweetAlert
  2. Server side

Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed Node and Yarn (latest versions) as well as PHP 7 and MySQL.

Installation

Cloning

git commit -m "init"

Setup

  1. Client side - this is a Vue.js project created with vue-cli
    • With Terminal cd client && yarn && yarn run dev.
  2. Server side - this is a Laravel 5.3 project
    • With Terminal:
      • Navigate to webservice folder and then:
      • composer install to install Laravel and third party packages
      • touch database/database.sqlite to create an empty database file
      • cp .env.example .env to configure installation
      • php artisan key:generate to generate unique key for the project
      • php artisan jwt:secret to generate unique key for the project
      • php artisan migrate to create all the tables
      • php artisan db:seed to fill the tables with fake data
      • php artisan serve to serve application on localhost:8000

Usage

  1. Client side
  2. Server side
    • API endpoint is http://localhost:8000/api

Testing

Navigate to webservice folder and run the composer test script

$ composer test

Things worth mentioning

  1. Error handling is done globally by making use of Axios' interceptors. But you can still .catch() errors within components to perform actions related to that scope. See /client/src/plugins/http.js;

  2. The same way error messages lives in one single component (/client/src/modules/general/alerts.vue) and their visibility is controlled by a Vuex property. So to show/hide messages it is just a matter of dispaching a Vuex action from within any component;

  3. The spinner displayed during server requests (see top right close to user indentification) is also controlled by a Vuex property. The procedure to show/hide it is the same as outlined in the item 2 above;

  4. routes and Vuex modules live close to the modules they work for. Always look for routes.js and store.js inside a module directory. See /client/src/modules/categories;

  5. Important: Laravel project found in the directory webservice was modified beyond adding routes and controllers. For instance: the webservice/app/Exceptions/Handler.php was modified from its original version to return all exceptions to the client, not only HttpExceptions. Other changes are also in place. So our recommendation is to always use this project to build your own, instead of copying controllers and routes to a new project.
