Currently, I am working on developing a SSR Nuxt.js application that integrates with a REST API server.
In order to achieve this, I have included my endpoint /api into the Nuxt server.js code as shown below:
const express = require('express')
const consola = require('consola')
const { Nuxt, Builder } = require('nuxt')
const app = express()
// Import and Set Nuxt.js options
const config = require('../nuxt.config.js')
config.dev = process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'
// MY REST API ENDPOINT (Is this the correct approach?)
const routesApi = require('./api/routes')
app.use('/api', routesApi)
async function start() {
// Initialize Nuxt.js
const nuxt = new Nuxt(config)
const { host, port } = nuxt.options.server
await nuxt.ready()
// Build only in dev mode
if (config.dev) {
const builder = new Builder(nuxt)
await builder.build()
}
// Provide nuxt middleware to express
app.use(nuxt.render)
// Start listening on the server
app.listen(port, host)
consola.ready({
message: `Server listening on http://${host}:${port}`,
badge: true
})
}
start()
I have not come across any examples related to this specific method.
I would appreciate some guidance to confirm if this is the correct approach.
Thank you for your assistance.
