Laravel Vapor is a serverless deployment platform for Laravel applications, and it primarily focuses on backend services. If you are using Vue.js for your frontend, you can deploy it separately as a static site to a service like AWS S3 or another suitable hosting provider, and then connect it to your Laravel Vapor backend.
Here's a general guide on how you can deploy a Vue.js frontend with Laravel Vapor:
Assuming you have a Vue.js project ready, build the project using:
bashnpm run build
This command will generate a dist
folder containing your static assets.
You can choose a static site hosting provider like AWS S3, Netlify, Vercel, GitHub Pages, or others. For example, if you choose AWS S3:
dist
folder to the bucket.Assuming you already have a Laravel Vapor project set up, configure the vapor.yml
file to include information about your Vue.js frontend. Add the following to the vapor.yml
file:
yamlassets:
- source: /path/to/your/vuejs/dist
target: public
exclude:
- .gitignore
- node_modules
- src
- public
- .env
- .git
- .gitignore
- README.md
Replace /path/to/your/vuejs/dist
with the actual path to your Vue.js dist
folder.
Deploy your Laravel Vapor project with the following command:
bashvapor deploy
This will deploy both your Laravel backend and the Vue.js frontend to the serverless environment.
In your Vue.js application, update the API endpoints to point to your Laravel Vapor backend. Ensure that your Laravel backend is set up to handle requests from your frontend.
Test your deployed application to ensure that the frontend and backend communicate correctly.
Remember, Laravel Vapor is primarily designed for deploying serverless Laravel applications, so you may need to adjust your setup based on the specific requirements of your project.
Make sure to refer to the official Laravel Vapor documentation for any updates or changes:
This guide assumes a basic setup, and your specific requirements may necessitate additional configurations or steps.
