Caution

Libraries that are used in the client should be included in the devDependencies for Bundle size optimization. (because of Lambda Limit)
If you install a module for nuxt.js, it must be in a the dependencies not devDependencies
Auto generated URL https://*.execute-api.{region}.amazonaws.com/{stage}/ will result in a JavaScript error. (routing problem) Please use the Custom Domain.
If you encounter Cannot GET / error message, the error log can be founded in the AWS CloudWatch.

Build Setup

# Install dependencies
$ yarn

# Serve develop server at localhost:3000 using Nuxt.js
$ yarn dev

# Build
$ yarn build

# Prod server start with built assets
$ yarn start

## SERVERLESS DEPLOYMENT ##
# Build and deploy the function and bundled assets
$ yarn deploy:dev
$ yarn deploy:stage
$ yarn deploy:prod

# Remove Deployment
$ yarn undeploy:dev
$ yarn undeploy:stage
$ yarn undeploy:prod

Environment Variables

update .env.development, .env.production.
If env variable key started with NUXT_APP, it injected to client in this.$store.state.environments.
WARNING!: Untrack the .env.development and the .env.production before commit

Folder Structure

/api: You can create a sub-API based on Express.js. dynamic ajax Set-Cookie is mainly used.

Let the URL be a * .json to distinguish it from the REST API that returns JSON.
/pages: File-based page routing. All ts files in /pages are only alias with export {default} to /services/${serviceName}/pages/**. all implementations should be done inside /services.
```
export { default } from '~/services/home/pages/index'
```
/services: The application is divided into several services and should be implemented in a folder named by service name. (Example: /home, /auth, ...)
- Inside a Service: /components, /queries, /pages, /helpers, /types, ...
/store: One Store that is globally used.
/types: Declare only .d.ts. The type used for each service should be stored in `/types' in each service.

To-do

optimize the lambda capacity (create SSR bundle with no dependencies)
static file serve
gzip Compression
