Vue3 WordPress Boilerplate

This is a simple Vue 3 project using WordPress API that showcase 3 examples:

User Authentication and State Management - Using JWT Auth for login and Pinia to store logged-in token.
How to GET data - Get latest posts data and display it.
How to POST data - Post a comment in an article.

We don't usually use it for native WordPress stuff, but it's just an example to show how it's done.

Previously only for internal project in my agency: Pixel Studio.

List of packages:

Vite
Vue Router
Pinia
Axios
DayJS
SVG Loader
ESLint Airbnb
Sass

How to Use

Install all packages:
```
npm install
```
Update the Environment variable (.env.development and .env.production) to fit your URL.
To start development server, run this command:
```
npm run dev
```
Start coding! All source code are in /src folder.
Before deployment, you need to compile and minify the files. Run this command and the compiled files will be in /dist folder:
```
npm run build
```

If you are deploying it into Apache server, add this .htaccess to the root folder:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>

Login

The Login form requires these steps to work:

Install JWT Authentication plugin.
Add this to wp-config:
```
define('JWT_AUTH_CORS_ENABLE', true);
define('JWT_AUTH_SECRET_KEY', 'any-salted-hash');
```
Pick any of the salted hash from here: https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/
Done!

Register and Forgot Password

WordPress doesn't have native APIs for Register and Forgot Password. So we need to implement them on our own.

Check out the sample code from our Wiki. This boilerplate works out-of-the-box with these samples:

Removing Login

If your app doesn't need login or register feature, do these:

Open router.js and remove all references from router-user.js.
Open App.vue and remove all LayoutLogin references.
Open Layout.vue and remove all references from stores-auth.js.
Open components/HeaderOffcanvas.vue and remove all Logout references.
Open helpers.js and remove the code that added the token to Header.
Delete user folder.
Delete LayoutLogin.vue.

SVG Loader

You can import SVG into a component like this:

```js
<script setup>
  import HouseSVG from '../svg/house.svg';
</script>

<template>
  <router-link to="/">
    <HouseSVG />
    Back to Home
  </router-link>
</template>
```

or

```html
<style lang="sass" scoped>
  .button-home
    background: url('../svg/house.svg') no-repeat center center
    background-size: 1rem 1rem
</style>
```
