Build Process

Dependencies

• Node.js LTS >=16.13.1 <17.0.0
• npm >=8.1.2 (included in Node.js)
• Jellyfin Server >=10.7.0

Getting Started

1. Clone or download this repository.

   git clone https://github.com/stevenliuit/jellyfin-vue.git
   cd jellyfin-vue

2. Install the build dependencies in the project directory.

   npm install

3. Run the web client with Nuxt as a server for local development.

   npm start

   The client will be available at http://127.0.0.1:3000 by default.

   Build for production

   When you're ready to deploy the client, you must build the client specifically production:

   npm run build

   Build output will be available under the src/dist folder.

Other build features

Running a production build

Instead of a development version, you can run a server with a production-ready build of the client directly with Nuxt, so you can verify in advance how the client will work in a production environment:

npm run prod

Although the build of the client is production-ready, Nuxt's own HTTP server should never be exposed directly to the internet and a proper hosting tool like Nginx should always be used instead.

Contributing

We provide a devcontainer to help you setup your environment.

The project also contains recommended extensions for Visual Studio Code, which will help you with syntax style and development.

Finally, we try to follow the ConventionalCommits Guidelines when writing commit messages.
