Manual Configuration

Last updated 4 months ago
This information is intended for advanced users who wish to configure a Vuido application manually. In most cases the automatic quick setup should be enough.
You need to install the vuido package in order to use Vuido in you application:
npm install --save vuido
In order to use single-file components, you will also need webpack and vue-loader. The configuration is similar to a web application using Vue.js, with some important differences:
The vuido-template-compiler must be used instead of the standard vue-template-compiler which is used by vue-loader by default. Use the compiler option to pass the Vuido compiler to vue-loader. Note that this option requires vue-loader v15 or newer.
Set the target option to 'node' to ensure that the compiled script can be run correctly by Node.js.
Use webpack.ExternalsPlugin to exclude libui-node and other native modules from the bundle.
Example of webpack configuration using Vuido:
webpack.config.js
const path = require( 'path' );
const webpack = require( 'webpack' );
const VueLoaderPlugin = require( 'vue-loader/lib/plugin' );
const VuidoTemplateCompiler = require( 'vuido-template-compiler' );
​
module.exports = {
  mode: 'development',
  entry: './src/main.js',
  output: {
    path: path.resolve( __dirname, '../dist' ),
    filename: 'main.js'
  }
  target: 'node',
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.vue$/,
        loader: 'vue-loader',
        options: {
          compiler: VuidoTemplateCompiler
        }
      },
      {
        test: /\.js$/,
        loader: 'babel-loader',
        exclude: /node_modules/
      }
    ]
  },
  resolve: {
    extensions: [ '.js', '.vue', '.json' ]
  },
  plugins: [
    new webpack.ExternalsPlugin( 'commonjs', [ 'libui-node' ] ),
    new VueLoaderPlugin()
  ]
};
You also need to install babel-core, babel-loader and babel-preset-env.
The basic Babel configuration which compiles the scripts for Node.js v8 looks like this:
.babelrc
{
  "presets": [
    [ "env", {
      "targets": {
        "node": 8
      },
      "modules": false,
      "useBuiltIns": true
    } ]
  ],
  "comments": false
}
