Creating nested Vue components in a Laravel project involves several steps. Vue.js is a progressive JavaScript framework that integrates well with Laravel. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to create nested Vue components in a Laravel project:
Install Laravel: Make sure you have Laravel installed on your system. You can install Laravel using Composer:
bashcomposer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel your-project-name
Install Vue.js: Laravel comes with Vue.js pre-installed. If you need a more recent version or want to manage your JavaScript dependencies using npm, you can install Vue using the following commands:
bashnpm install
Create Vue Components:
Create your Vue components in the resources/js/components
directory. For example, let's create two components, ParentComponent.vue
and ChildComponent.vue
:
html<!-- resources/js/components/ChildComponent.vue -->
<template>
<div>
<h2>Child Component</h2>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: 'ChildComponent'
}
</script>
html<!-- resources/js/components/ParentComponent.vue -->
<template>
<div>
<h1>Parent Component</h1>
<child-component></child-component>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import ChildComponent from './ChildComponent.vue';
export default {
name: 'ParentComponent',
components: {
ChildComponent
}
}
</script>
Register Vue Components:
Register your Vue components globally or within a specific Vue instance. In your main Vue file (e.g., resources/js/app.js
), import and register the components:
js// resources/js/app.js
import Vue from 'vue';
import ParentComponent from './components/ParentComponent.vue';
Vue.component('parent-component', ParentComponent);
const app = new Vue({
el: '#app',
});
Include Vue Instance in Blade File:
Include the Vue instance in your Blade file (e.g., resources/views/welcome.blade.php
). Make sure to have an element with the id app
where the Vue app will mount:
html<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel Vue Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="app">
<parent-component></parent-component>
</div>
<script src="{{ mix('js/app.js') }}"></script>
</body>
</html>
Compile Assets: Compile your assets using Laravel Mix. Run the following command to compile your JavaScript and Vue components:
bashnpm run dev
For production, you can use npm run prod
for minification and optimization.
Run Your Laravel Application: Start your Laravel development server:
bashphp artisan serve
Visit http://localhost:8000
in your browser to see the nested Vue components in action.
Now you have successfully created and nested Vue components in a Laravel project. You can continue building your application by creating more components and organizing them as needed.
