Vue Cli 3.0 where is the config file?
vue.jsVue Clivue.js Problem Overview
I've seen it mentioned in docs, etc the vue.config.js file. And also noted previously these are handled in the webpack config file, etc in 2.0. But I can't find either file in my project folder created with vue cli 3.0... Where is the config files and why isn't it anywhere in the top level folders, etc?

Solution 1 - vue.js
> Where is the config files and why isn't it anywhere in the top level folders, etc?
The initial project doesn't require the file to exist because you just created a project with fresh "default" settings that don't require any config.
Just create it yourself. it's even mentioned in the README:
> Many aspects of a Vue CLI project can be configured by placing a vue.config.js file at the root of your project. The file may already exist depending on the features you selected when creating the project.
(emphasis mine)
Edit: now to be found here: https://cli.vuejs.org/config/#global-cli-config
Solution 2 - vue.js
The file by default does not exists as it was mentioned by Linus. You need to create manually vue.config.js
file in a root location of your project, i.e. on the same level where is package.json
.
Solution 3 - vue.js
There is no need for "config" directory anymore. if you want to define "environment variables" you can do that in ".env" file
Just like:
VUE_APP_TITLE=Test
You can also create ".env" file for each environment
Like:
.env.development
for development mode
.env.production
for production mode.
For more information please read: https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/mode-and-env.html#example-staging-mode
Solution 4 - vue.js
vue.config.js
is now an optional config file.
Solution 5 - vue.js
Check this out:
- Create
> vue.config.js
in your vue project at the same level with
> package.json
-
Specify the host and the port:
module.exports = { devServer: { host: "localhost", port: "8080" } }
-
Run:
> npm run serve
in your vue folder.
