# plumber-vue
Project structure showing the use of an R-based [Plumber API](https://github.com/rstudio/plumber) with a [Vue](https://vuejs.org/) frontend, using Vue CLI.
## Project Structure
Creates a single-page application that operates on the same origin. For that reason, it isn't necessary to enable CORS on the specific routes if accessed from within the application.
This allows a development split between the analytical logic, served by the API, and the presentation logic and development workflow.
### Directory Structure
```
.
├── files/ # output js built here, served as Plumber static assets
├── js/
│ ├─ src/
│ ├─ components/
│ ├─ .env.local
│ └─ main.js
│
├─ entrypoint.R
└─ plumber.R
```
The static Vue assets can then be built into the `@assets` directory served by Plumber.
```r
# plumber.R
#* @assets ./files/static /
list()
```
Using the below structure in the `vue.config.js`:
```js
// vue.config.js
module.exports = {
publicPath:
process.env.NODE_ENV == "production" ? process.env.CONNECT_URL : "/",
outputDir: "../files/static",
devServer: {
proxy: process.env.PROXY_URL
}
};
```
The `env` variables are defined in a [`.env`](https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/mode-and-env.html#environment-variables) file in the `/js` root.
```ini
CONNECT_URL=
PROXY_URL=http://localhost:
```
## Frontend Application
The Vue application uses [axios](https://github.com/axios/axios) to make requests back to the API routes.
```js
// main.js
const HTTP = axios.create({
baseURL: process.env.NODE_ENV == "production" ? process.env.CONNECT_URL : ""
});
Vue.prototype.$axios = HTTP;
```
Every request using `this.$axios` within the VUe app will now use the `HTTP` custom instance.
## Development
After cloning the repo:
```bash
yarn install # or npm install
```
### Start the frontend application
Make sure that the Plumber application is also running at this time since the API, even in development mode is making requests against the API endpoints.
```bash
yarn serve
```
### Build the frontend assets into the Plumber project
```bash
yarn build
```
