Statamic Live Preview for Nuxt

This package allows you to use a Nuxt website as Live Preview in Statamic.

Installation

Add package to your nuxt app

yarn add @teamnovu/statamic-live-preview-nuxt

If you are migrating from the previous statamic live preview provided by our fork, please also remove the old statamic live preview module:

yarn remove statamic-live-preview-nuxt

Add plugin to your nuxt config

Create a file called 'live-preview.js' in the plugins folder.

Add the following lines to `plugins/live-preview.js':

import livePreview from '@teamnovu/statamic-live-preview-nuxt'

export default livePreview

Add the plugin to your nuxt.config.js file.

plugins: [
    // ...
    '~/plugins/live-preview.js'
]

Statamic 3.3 Fork using window.postMessage()

If you are using our Statamic 3.3 fork you can set the CMS to update the live preview without having it refresh the page after every change. To do so set the config post_message_data in config/statamic/live_preview.php to live-preview-update. This will tell the CMS to use window.postMessage() to notify this plugin to refresh the page.

ScrollTo Element Behavior (Optional)

Register the Vue Directive to enable ScrollTo Element behavior.

import Vue from 'vue'
import livePreview, { Directive } from '@teamnovu/statamic-live-preview-nuxt'

Vue.use(Directive)

export default livePreview

Use it like this:

<h2 v-editor-target="'title'">This is a headline</h2>

Nested Example:

<!-- pages/_.vue -->

<ComponentsLoader
	:components="page.replicator_product_components"
    v-editor-target="'replicator_product_components'"
/>

All values used with v-editor-target must match the corresponding field handle of the CMS. Then within your ComponentsLoader.vue:

<!-- components/ComponentsLoader.vue -->

<Component
	...
    v-editor-target="index"
/>

If you nest v-editor-target their values will be concatenated. For Example: replicator_product_components.0.title.

Transpilation

Depending on your Node-version you may need to add the package to be transpiled by nuxt.

build: {
    transpile: [
        // ...
        '@teamnovu/statamic-live-preview-nuxt'
    ]
}
