VueComponentPlugin

Description

Transpile .vue files into JavaScript.

Install

This plugin depends on the following node modules:

  • vue-template-compiler
  • vue-template-es2015-compiler
  • vue-hot-reload-api
  • postcss-selector-parser
  • vue
yarn add vue-template-compiler vue-template-es2015-compiler vue-hot-reload-api vue postcss-selector-parser --dev

npm install vue-template-compiler vue-template-es2015-compiler vue-hot-reload-api vue postcss-selector-parser --save-dev

For more information about the *.vue file specifications please see the official documentation

Usage

Just import from FuseBox:

const { VueComponentPlugin } = require("fuse-box");

Inject into a chain:

fuse.plugin(VueComponentPlugin());

note: It's recommended to use typescript to compile your javascript. Even if you are not familiar with Typescript you can still use it to transpile modern code without dancing around the fire with a drum configuring Babel. {useTypescriptCompiler : true}

Or add it to the main config to make it available across bundles:

FuseBox.init({
  useTypescriptCompiler: true,
  plugins: [VueComponentPlugin()],
});

Defaults

If no lang attributes are specified (see below) the VueComponentPlugin will use the following configuration out of the box:

  • <template> Defaults to html and uses HTMLPlugin
  • <script> Defaults to ts and uses FuseBox's integrated Typescript compiler
  • <style> Defaults to css and uses CSSPlugin

Language Attributes

When VueComponentPlugin detects a lang attribute on a block it will attempt to match with the corresponding FuseBox plugin. For example:

In addition, the VueComponentPlugin will try to infer the lang type if it is not explicitly set but the src contains an extension:

<template src="my-template.pug"> <!-- VueComponentPlugin will infer lang as "pug" -->

note: If using lang="js" and configuration item useTypescriptCompiler: true then FuseBox will use the internal Typescript compiler and NOT BabelPlugin

Using Custom Plugin Chains

If the above functionality doesn't fit your needs, you can override the pre-processing by optionally setting the script, style or template options. This follows the standard FuseBox way of defining plugin chains:

const { FuseBox, VueComponentPlugin, BabelPlugin, ConsolidatePlugin, SassPlugin, CSSResourcePlugin, PostCSSPlugin, CSSPlugin } = require('fuse-box')

const fsbx = FuseBox.init({
    homeDir: './src',
    output: 'dist/app.js',
    plugins: [
      VueComponentPlugin({
          script: BabelPlugin({ ... }), // consider setting useTypescriptCompiler option in FuseBox
          template: ConsolidatePlugin({ ... })
          style: [
              SassPlugin({ ... }),
              CSSResourcePlugin({ ... }),
              PostCSSPlugin( ... ),
              CSSPlugin({ ... })
          ]
      })
    ]
})

note: Overriding a plugin chain for a .vue block will make the VueComponentPlugin ignore any lang attributes.

Using Typescript Decorators

If you are writing Vue components with Typescript and are making use of vue-class-component then you will need to install tslib and update your tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "importHelpers": true
  }
}

External Files

The VueComponentPlugin fully understands the src attribute and will handle external files just the same as inline content.

Scoped Styling

Scoped styling is fully supported by using the scoped attribute. Support for the module attribute will be coming soon.

HMR

Hot Module Reloading is also fully supported, just enable it on your bundles by calling .hmr(). See here for more info.
