vue-django-webpack-boilerplate

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 vue-cli@1.x, it will be pulling the master branch of this template by default. If you are using vue-cli@2.x, it will be pulling the dist branch instead, which provides more configurable options thanks to new features in vue-cli@2.x. 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

<a href="https://codeclimate.com/github/NdagiStanley/vue-django"><img src="https://codeclimate.com/github/NdagiStanley/vue-django/badges/issue_count.svg" /></a>

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
