Laravel 8 with Vue 3 -

Prerequisite

Laravel >=8
Laravel Mix >=6
Node version >=12.14

Creating Laravel Project: First Create a Laravel project using below command

composer create-project laravel/laravel Laravel_Vue_Ex

Creating Database: Create a new database in mysql with the name Laravel vue. Then Open ‘env’ file and change Database configuration

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravel_vue

Table Creation: Now we will create a product table.

php artisan make:model Product -m

Relationship: One User will add one to many products. And one product belongs to only one user.

This below command will create one model class named “Product”, one migration class named “CreateProductsTable”.

Migration: From database->migrations-> Open the CreateProductsTable table add ‘name’ and ‘details’ column.

public function up(){
Schema::create('products', function (Blueprint $table) {
   $table->id();
   $table->string('name');
   $table->text('details');
   $table->timestamps();
 });
}

But the table products still not added because we have to run below command

php artisan migrate

Migrating: 2022_02_15_060026_create_products_table

Migrated:  2022_02_15_060026_create_products_table (75.60ms)

HasMany: In User model add below function

public function products(){
return $this->hasMany(Product::class);
}

BelongsTo: Product model belongs to User Model

public function users(){
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}

Controller: Let’s create a controller

php artisan make:controller ProductController

Then in routes/api.php add below code.

Route::middleware('api')->group(function (){
Route::resource('products',ProductController::class);
});

Resource: What resource do is it give some route atomically so we do not have to create them.

We can check the route list

php artisan route:list

Adding Vue 3 to Laravel:

npm install --save vue@next && npm install --save-dev vue-loader@next

In Webpack.mix.js

Add vue()

mix.js('resources/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.vue()
.postCss('resources/css/app.css', 'public/css', [
//
]);

Now we will create view components and add them on Laravel blade template.

Create a folder name ‘components’ in resource->js-> components’

Add a vue file with the name of “Create_View.vue” and add below code

<!-- username input -->
<input type="text" v-model="username">

<!-- email input -->
<input type="text" v-model="details" >

<!-- submit button -->
<button type="submit">Submit</button>

</form>
</template>

<script>

export default {
  data() {
  return {
  username: '',
  details: '',
 }
},
methods: {
// submit the form to our backend api
async add_products() {
const res = await fetch('/api/products', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },

// pass in the information from our form
body: JSON.stringify({
  username: this.username,
  details: this.details,
  })
  }).then(response=>{
   console.log(response)
   })

  }
 }
}
</script>

If we check the route:list we will see few Route and Method like below

Method:POST Route:api/products Controller Method:products.store

Action: App\Http\Controllers\ProductController@store

We have to add store method to ProductController

public function store(Request $request)
{
$test = json_decode($request->getContent(), true);
$username = $test['username'];
$detail = $test['details'];
$product = new Product([
'name' => $username,
'details' => $detail
]);
$product->save();
return response()->json('Product created!');

}

Now in app.js we have to add this component with vue.

First, we have to import Vue

import {createApp} from 'vue'

Then import the component from directory that we have created earlier

import Create_Product from "./componets/Create_Product";

Then we will create an object of CreateApp

const app =createApp({});

then we can add the component to vue

app.component('create-pro',Create_Pro);

Then we will add the vue to DOM

app.mount('#app')

Then in our Blade view we can use “create-pro”

<create-pro/>

We will have to app app.js in our blade

<script src="{{ asset('js/app.js') }}"></script>

Then run

npm run watch

This command will continue to watch css,js and recompile webpack if anything changes.

Now run the application

Once we submit the form, we have to inspect the page. And in console we will see below status.

Response {type: 'basic', url: 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/products', redirected: false, status: 200, ok: true, …}

Also in database data updated as well.
