Initial packages to create SPA website with CodeIgniter 4 dan Vue.js. For CodeIgniter 3, check here or here

Limitation

Currently only works with hash route mode.

Detail

1. CodeIgniter 4. I don't include some CI4 folders here: contributing, test, user_guide_src, .github
2. Vue.js 2.6.10 with webpack template
3. Node.js (> 6.0.0) and npm (> 3.0.0)

How to Run

1. Copy env and rename it as .env. Set the environment to development, uncomment other variables to set url and database.

2. Set your application url on app/Config/App.php

3. Setup Database For this example, we use mySQL. First, create a mySQL database and then setup your database connection by editing app/Config/Database.php or use the env file.

4. Run migrations and seed.

# ci4-vue

php spark migrate:latest -g default && sudo php spark db:seeder BookSeeder

5. Install node_modules on ci4-vue/client

# ci4-vue/client

npm install

6. Development In this step, we are developing the vue app, codeigniter is not running or used yet. To run this, use the following command (Administrator access might be needed).

# ci4-vue/client

npm run dev

7. Production After developing the vue app, we can build the app and then run codeigniter

# ci4-vue/client

npm run build

this will generate dist folder and app/Views/index.php file. To run, visit: {host}/ci4-vue/

Other

1. All of above commands are run on CMD (Windows) or terminal on Linux/Mac
2. Contoller Api/books (using database) and Api/ping (not using database) is just an example of REST Controller. We are using filters to limit access to those apis. To update the filters, edit app/Config/Filters.php and the filters code are in app/Filters
3. For Axios, you can edit the base URL in client/main.js
