template docker for laravel+nuxt

Prerequisites

Well tested on Ubuntu 19.10, macOS 10.14.6

About the structure

Laravel API and Nuxt are totally separate from each other and there are some reasons why I don't mix them up.

• First, throwing two frameworks together is a guaranteed mess in the future.
• API should be the only one layer of coupling.
• You can host them on the different servers.
• You can even split them into separate repositories if (when) the project will grow.
• You can even add a third project, for example, a mobile APP, which will use the same API also.

Basic usage

Your base url is http://localhost:8080. All requests to Laravel API must be sent using to the url starting with /api prefix. Nginx server will proxy all requests with /api prefix to the node static server which serves the Nuxt.

There is also available http://localhost:8081 url which is handled by Laravel and should be used for testing purposes only.

You don't need to configure the api to allow cross origin requests because all requests are proxied through the Nginx.

The following image demonstrates a request path going through the environment.

Install

clone project:

git clone https://github.com/mioe/i-want-to-break-free-laravel-nuxt app
cd app

set up laravel permissions:

sudo chmod -R 777 laravel/bootstrap/cache
sudo chmod -R 777 laravel/storage

copy environment files:

cp .env.example-nuxt nuxt/.env
cp .env.example-laravel laravel/.env

init docker containers && start project:

docker-compose up # first start (5-10 min)
# or
docker-compose up -d

create new DB:

# open mysql client

user:     root
password: 123456
port:     33061 # not 3306

init laravel:

docker-compose exec laravel bash # -> open bash terminal

Enjoy 😙
