InertiaUno

InertiaUno is a fancy Laravel package that provides frontend features and integrates Unocss into your Laravel project. It simplifies the process of installing InertiaJS, adding middleware, installing Lodash, and integrating UNOCSS and VUE Iconify. It also offers commands to publish views, CSS files, JS files, and Vue files.

Installation

You can install InertiaUno via Composer:

and then you can install InertiaUno and set up its frontend features, run the following command:

This command will guide you through a series of prompts to install InertiaJS, add middleware, install Lodash, UNOCSS, VUE Iconify, and publish various files. You can choose which features to install based on your project requirements.

Implementing InertiaUno in Laravel

To demonstrate how to implement InertiaUno in a Laravel project, follow these steps:

1. Create a new controller, let's call it TestController, by running the following command:

2. Open the TestController file in your preferred code editor and update the __invoke method to render an Inertia view. Here's an example:

   In this example, we're rendering an Inertia view named Test and passing an empty model to it. You can customize the view name and data according to your needs.

3. Create a new Vue component file, Test.vue, in your resources/js/Pages directory. Add the following content to the file:

   This Vue component uses the ui-card component and fetches data using useModel. The component auto-imports the required files.

4. Component Auto Importing: When you use a component, such as , InertiaUno automatically imports the corresponding Vue component file. For example, if you use <ui-card>, InertiaUno will automatically import resources/js/Components/Ui/Card.vue or resources/js/Components/Ui/Card/Index.vue, depending on the file's structure.

5. Layout Auto Importing: Layout Auto Importing: If you add the layout attribute to the <template> tag in your Vue file, InertiaUno automatically imports the corresponding layout file. For example, <template layout="main"> will import resources/js/main.vue.

   To illustrate the layout auto-importing feature, let's take a look at an example main.vue layout file:

   In this example, the main.vue layout file defines a layout structure for your Vue components. It uses Uno CSS classes(like tailwind) to style the elements. The layout consists of a header, a main content area with a container for the content, and a footer. The <slot></slot> element allows your Vue components to be inserted dynamically into the layout's main content area. When you specify layout="main" in template tag of your your Vue page file, InertiaUno will automatically import the resources/js/main.vue layout file, providing the structure and styling defined in the layout. This allows you to maintain a consistent layout across multiple pages or components.

6. Composable Auto Importing: When you use a composable structure, InertiaUno automatically imports the associated file. In the example above, it loads resources/js/Composables/useModel.js using the useModel composable.

   To demonstrate the composable auto-importing feature, consider the following example code:

   In this example, the useModel composable is defined in the resources/js/useModel.js file. It uses Vue Composition API functions like computed and the usePage composable from @inertiajs/vue3 to access the page's props and retrieve the model property. It also includes an asynchronous get function that you can use to perform additional asynchronous work if needed. When you use the useModel composable in your Vue file, InertiaUno automatically imports the useModel.js file, making it available for use in your application.

7. UnoCSS Feature: InertiaUno integrates with UnoCSS, a utility-first CSS framework. Here's an example of a nice ui-card component using Tailwind CSS features:

   In this example, the ui-card component has a white background, rounded corners, and a shadow. It also displays the model ref, which was defined in the Vue file.

8. Finally, update your routes to map the TestController to a route. Open the routes/web.php file and add the following route:

   This route maps the TestController to the /test URL.

Now, when you visit the /test URL in your Laravel application, the TestController will render the Test Vue file, which uses the `resources/js/Components/Ui/Card.vue component. The component auto-imports other components, layouts, and composable files, making it easy to work with InertiaUno in your Laravel project.

Configuration

InertiaUno publishes a configuration file that you can customize. To publish the configuration file, run:

This will create a inertia-uno.php file in your config directory, where you can modify the package's configuration options.

Available Commands

InertiaUno provides several commands to help you manage and customize your Laravel project's frontend features. Here's a list of available commands:

• inertia-uno:install:inertia: Installs InertiaJS and configures it in your project.
• inertia-uno:add:middleware: Adds the inertia middleware handler to your project.
• inertia-uno:install:lodash: Installs Lodash in your project.
• inertia-uno:install:uno: Installs UNOCSS and integrates it into your project.
• inertia-uno:install:iconify: Installs VUE Iconify in your project.
• inertia-uno:publish:view: Publishes the package's views.
• inertia-uno:publish:css: Publishes the package's CSS files.
• inertia-uno:publish:js: Publishes the package's JS files.
• inertia-uno:publish:vue: Publishes the package's Vue files.
• inertia-uno:publish:vite: Updates the Vite configuration file.

Technologies Used

InertiaUno utilizes the following technologies:

• Laravel: A powerful PHP framework for web application development.
• Inertia.js: A modern approach to building single-page applications using server-side routing.
• UnoCSS: A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.
• VUE Iconify: A collection of high-quality open-source icons for Vue.js.
• Vue I18n@9: An internationalization plugin for Vue.js applications.
• Lodash: A JavaScript utility library for manipulating, sorting, and filtering arrays and objects.
• Vite: A fast build tool and development server for modern web applications.

Roadmap

Our planned roadmap for InertiaUno includes the following features:

• [ ] UI Kit: We plan to create a UI kit of common components and layouts to help developers get started quickly with Inertia.js.
• [ ] Predefined Layouts: We also plan to provide predefined layouts for commonly used pages, such as login, registration, and dashboard.
• [ ] Composables: In addition to useModel, we plan to create more composable functions that developers can use to fetch data, handle forms, and perform other common tasks.

We welcome contributions and feedback from the community to help improve InertiaUno and make it even better!
