Welcome to Vueniverse!

Vueniverse is a full-stack JavaScript starter project. Some of the features that comes baked in include:

PWA by default, 100/100 lighthouse PWA score.
Universal es2015 JavaScript. No more context switching between client/server code!
A REST API, and full user authentication with JWT, Redis blacklisting, and MongoDB.
Client Side routing, Server Side Rendering and Global State Management thanks to Vuejs and Nuxtjs!
Abstracted WebPack build process.
Universal HMR for a clean development process, thanks to Nuxtjs and BackPack.
Ready for deployment with NOW

Live Demo It might take a while to load if it's asleep.

You must have vue-cli installed.

npm install -g vue-cli

Create Project

vue init rlindskog/vueniverse {{ your-project-name }}
cd {{ your-project-name }}
npm install

Start a MongoDB database locally

npm run start-db

Stop the MongoDB database locally

npm run stop-db

Run in development

npm run dev

Build for production

npm run build

Run in production (runs the database and application in a subprocess)

npm run start

Stop production running (stops the database and application)

npm run stop

Start a Redis database locally (use this if chose the redis session option)

Install

$ wget http://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf redis-stable.tar.gz
$ cd redis-stable
$ make
$ # wait for it to install...
$ sudo cp src/redis-server /usr/local/bin/
$ sudo cp src/redis-cli /usr/local/bin/

Then run

redis-server

Deploy with NOW

npm install -g now-cli

You will have to make a database else where, I recommend the Atlas free teir. When you do, paste the url to the DB_URL and a random SECRET variable to the secrets.json file.

Also, if you decided to use the Redis option instead of in-memory (highly recommended), then you will have to create a Redis session store else where as well. I recommend the Redis Labs free tier. Once you make your Redis session, add SESSION_HOST, SESSION_PORT, and SESSION_PASSWORD to the secrets.json file.

Then run...

npm run deploy

If you have any problems, please don't hesitate to create an issue!

FUTURE TODO

Create an admin interface! (currently working on)
Create a few more NPM convenience commands, such as "create-admin-user" and "create-app" (which would create an MVC folder in the API, and add a page on the admin interface).
vue-cli option to choose between PostgreSQL and MongoDB (MongoDB currently implemented)
vue-cli option to choose between AirBNB and Standard Linting Style.
vue-cli option to include unit/e2e tests.

Pull requests welcome!
