vue.py

use Vue.js with pure Python

vue.py provides Python bindings for Vue.js. It uses brython to run Python in the browser.

Here is a simple example of an vue.py component

from browser import alert
from vue import VueComponent

class HelloVuePy(VueComponent):
    greeting = "Hello vue.py"

    def greet(self, event):
        alert(self.greeting)

    template = """
    <button @click="greet">click me</button>
    """

HelloVuePy("#app")

Installation

$ pip install vuepy

Development Status

The goal is to provide a solution to write fully-featured Vue applications in pure Python.

To get an overview what currently is supported, have a look at the Documentation.

Have a look here to see whats planned!

Documentation

Documentation is available here.

Examples can be found here. These are vue.py versions of the Vue.js examples

Performance

Initial loading times of vue.py apps can be very long. Especially when loading a lot of python files. Still figuring out how to solve this.

Have not done any peformance tests, but havent noticed any issues with performance as soon as the app was fully loaded.

Development

Getting Started

Get the code

$ git clone https://github.com/stefanhoelzl/vue.py.git
$ cd vue.py

Install required python packages, the chromedriver for selenium and brython

$ make env.up

Run tests

$ make tests           # runs all tets
$ make tests.unit      # runs unit tests
$ make tests.selenium  # runs selenium tests
$ make tests.cli       # runs cli tests

Clean up your working directory.

$ make env.clean

Reset your development environment (clean up, reinstall packages and redownload needed files)

$ make env.down
$ make env.up

Workflow

Development happens on the master branch. This also means the latest documentation can be found here.

The release branch should always be even with the latest release. Changes to this branch also trigger a update of gh-pages. Therefor fixes to the documentation can be made on the release branch. So that the documentation is always valid for the latest release.
