Vue Static Site Template

This template should help get you started developing with a static Vue 3 web application built with Vite and styled with Vuetify.

Recommended IDE Setup

VSCode + Volar (and disable Vetur).

Type Support for .vue Imports in TS

TypeScript cannot handle type information for .vue imports by default, so we replace the tsc CLI with vue-tsc for type checking. In editors, we need Volar to make the TypeScript language service aware of .vue types.

Customize configuration

See Vite Configuration Reference.

Project Setup

Step 1 - Create new Repo

Create a new project in Github. You can either reference this template repo, or create an empty repository and clone this template repo. To clone, follow this process:

git clone git@github.com:JoelYoung01/VueStaticSiteTemplate.git <project_name_here>
cd <project_name_here>
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial Commit"
git remote add origin <new_repo_url>
git push -u origin main

Step 2 - Setup Environment

Copy .envtemplate to a new file, .env, and fill out applicable values

Setup the backend by creating a venv.

# Add venv
py -m venv venv

When using VSCode, you should have the option to set this venv as your default python interpreter. If the option did not pop up, you can set this opening the cmd palette Ctrl + Shift + P and typing Python: Select Interpreter or something similar.

When setting your venv python as your default interpreter, you will have to reload VSCode before your terminals switch to using that python instance.

Once your venv is active, echo $env:VIRTUAL_ENV should return your venv's path.

Step 3 - Install Dependencies

Install dependencies

# Install Vite Deps
pnpm i

# Activate venv (only if not already active)
./venv/Scripts/activate

# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Run / Build / Deploy

Compile and Hot-Reload for Development

# Run Vite Dev Server
pnpm dev

# Run FastAPI Dev Server
fastapi dev api/main.py

Type-Check, Compile and Minify for Production

pnpm build

Lint with ESLint

pnpm lint

S3 Deployment

This repo comes with a GitHub Action that will deploy the site to an S3 bucket. To set this up, you'll need to add the following environment variables and secrets to your GitHub repository:

Environment Variables

• APP_NAME lower-snake-case
• APP_TITLE Display Name

Secrets:

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
• S3_BUCKET

The actions are set up to deploy to 3 environments; dev, stage, and prod. It is recommended to set up S3_BUCKET environment secret per environment.
