vueify

Browserify transform for Vue.js components

This is just a thin adaptor on top of vue-component-compiler. It allows you to write your components in this format:

// app.vue
<style>
  .red {
    color: #f00;
  }
</style>

<template>
  <h1 class="red">{{msg}}</h1>
</template>

<script>
  module.exports = {
    data: function () {
      return {
        msg: 'Hello world!'
      }
    }
  }
</script>

You can also mix preprocessor languages in the component file:

// app.vue
<style lang="stylus">
.red
  color #f00
</style>

<template lang="jade">
h1(class="red") {{msg}}
</template>

<script lang="coffee">
module.exports =
  data: ->
    msg: 'Hello world!'
</script>

And you can import using the src attribute (note you'll have to save the vue file to trigger a rebuild since the imported file is not tracked by Browserify as a dependency):

<style lang="stylus" src="style.styl"></style>

Under the hood, the transform will:

• extract the styles, compile them and insert them with the insert-css module.
• extract the template, compile it and add it to your exported options.

You can require() other stuff in the <script> as usual. Note that for CSS-preprocessor @imports, the path should be relative to your project root directory.

Usage

npm install vueify --save-dev
browserify -t vueify -e src/main.js -o build/build.js

And this is all you need to do in your main entry file:

// main.js
var Vue = require('vue')
var appOptions = require('./app.vue')
var app = new Vue(appOptions).$mount('#app')

Enabling Pre-Processors

You need to install the corresponding node modules to enable the compilation. e.g. to get stylus compiled in your Vue components, do npm install stylus --save-dev.

These are the built-in preprocessors:

• stylus
• less
• scss (via node-sass)
• jade
• coffee-script
• myth
• es6 (via 6to5 aka babel)

Registering Custom Pre-Processors

Create a vue.config.js file at where your build command is run (usually y the root level of your project):

module.exports = function (compiler) {
  
  // register a compile function for <script lang="es">
  compiler.register({
    lang: 'es',
    type: 'script',
    compile: function (content, cb) {
      // transform the content...
      cb(null, content)
    }
  })

}

Syntax Highlighting

And here's a SublimeText package for enabling language highlighting/support in these embbeded code blocks.

Example

For an example setup, see vuejs/vueify-example.

If you use Webpack, there's also vue-loader that does the same thing.
