Laravel API Integration in Nuxt.js

#ai #nuxt #laravelapi #javascript

In this tutorial, we'll integrate a Laravel API into a Nuxt.js application. Let's dive in!

Step 1: Set Up Environment File
First, set up your environment file as shown in the screenshot below:

OPEN_AI_API_KEY=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
API_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/
API_ROOT_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000
VITE_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/

Step 2: Set Up Axios
While there are different ways to set up Axios, in this tutorial, we'll use it as a helper function. Create a folder named helpers, and inside it, create a file named axios.js. Type the configuration as shown in the block:

We've already set up the necessary packages like Axios and Pinia. If you haven't done this yet, follow the instructions in the link below:
Configure AI Prompt : Part-2

import axios from 'axios';

const axiosInstance = axios.create({
  baseURL: import.meta.env.VITE_API_URL, 
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
});

axiosInstance.interceptors.request.use(function (config) {
  // Do something before request is sent
  let token = localStorage.getItem("token");
  config.headers["Authorization"] = "Bearer " + token;
  return config;
});

export default axiosInstance;

Step 3: Set Up Pinia Store
Create the following files in your Pinia store:

aiMovieStore.js
categoryStore.js
userStore.js

Now, add code to each file as shown in the block below:

userStore.js

import { defineStore } from 'pinia';
import axios from '../helpers/axios.js';


export const userStore = defineStore('userStore', {
  state: () => ({
    loading: false,
    logInUserInfo: {},
    categories: [],
    isLogIn:false,
  }),

  getters: {
    authCheck() {
      if (process.client) {
        if (this.isLogIn == true) {
           return true;
        }
        if(this.isLogIn == false){
          const token = localStorage.getItem('token');
          return !!token;
        }

        return false;
      }
    },
    token (){
      if (typeof window == undefined) {
        return false;
      }
      const token = localStorage.getItem("token") ?? this.logInUserInfo.data.token
      if(token){
        return token;
      }

      return null;
    }
  },

  actions: {
     async actionLogin(payload, token) {
      try {
        const response = await axios.post('/login', payload);
        this.logInUserInfo = response.data;
        this.isLogIn = true;
        // Save the user data and token in local storage (for page reload)
        localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(response.data.data));
        localStorage.setItem('token', response.data.data.token);
        navigateTo("/");
      } catch (error) {
        throw new Error('Login failed.', error);
      }
    },

    async actionLogout(payload) {
      const response = await axios.post('/logout');
      localStorage.removeItem('user');
      localStorage.removeItem('token');
      this.logInUserInfo = null;
      this.isLogIn = false;
    },

    async actionRegister(payload){
      console.log('registation', payload)
      try {
        const response = await axios.post('/register', payload);
        navigateTo("/login");
      } catch (error) {
        throw new Error('Registration failed.', error);
      }
    }





  }
});

# categoryStore.js

import { defineStore } from 'pinia';
import { ref } from 'vue';
import axios from "../helpers/axios.js";

export const categoryStore = defineStore('categoryStore', () => {
  const categories = ref([])

  const actionStoreCategory = async(payload)=>{
    console.log('actionStoreCategory', payload)
    const formData = new FormData();
    formData.append("name", payload.name);
    formData.append("image", payload.file);
    //console.log("actionManualMovieDataSendToServer", [...formData]);
    const response = await axios.post("/category-store", formData, {
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
      },
    });
    navigateTo("/");
  }

  const actionAllCategoryApi = async()=> {
    const config = useRuntimeConfig();
    const data = await axios.get("/all-category");
    console.log("axios data", data);
    categories.value = data.data.data;
    //this.actionAiMovieData = movieData;
  }

    return { actionStoreCategory, actionAllCategoryApi, categories }
  })

# aiMovieStore.js

import axios from "../helpers/axios.js";

import { defineStore } from "pinia";

//define pinia store
export const aiMovieStore = defineStore("aiMovieStore", {

  //initial store
  state: () => ({
    loading: false,
    aiMovieData: {},
    categories: [],
    topMovies: [],
    categoryWiseMovie: [],
  }),

  getters: {},

  actions: {
    async getToken() {
      return await axios.get("/sanctum/csrf-cookie");
    },

    //here payload is ai data. this data store in pinia
    async actionAiMovieData(payload) {
      this.aiMovieData = payload;
      this.loading = false;
    },
    async actionAllCategoryApi() {
      const config = useRuntimeConfig();
      const data = await axios.get("/all-category");
      console.log("axios data", data);
      this.categories = data.data.data;
      //this.actionAiMovieData = movieData;
    },

    //here send ai data to server for save this data in our database
    async actionAiMovieDataSendServer(payload) {
      console.log("actionAiMovieDataSendServer", payload);
      const response = await axios.post("/ai-movie-store", payload);
      navigateTo("/");
    },

    //here menual movie data send to server for save this data in our database
    async actionManualMovieDataSendToServer(payload) {
      console.log("actionManualMovieDataSendToServer", payload);
      const formData = new FormData();
      formData.append("title", payload.title);
      formData.append("description", payload.description);
      formData.append("category_id", payload.category);
      //formData.append('image', payload.file??"")
      if (payload.file) {
        formData.append("image", payload.file);
      }
      console.log("actionManualMovieDataSendToServer", [...formData]);
      const response = await axios.post("/movie-store", formData, {
        headers: {
          "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
        },
      });
      navigateTo("/");
    },

    //fetch top movies from database
    async actionTopMovie(payload) {
      const data = await axios.get("/top-movies");
      this.topMovies = data.data.data.data;
    },

    //fetch category wise movie list from database
    async actionCategoryWiseMovie() {
      const data = await axios.get("/category-wise-movies");
      console.log("actionCategoryWiseMovie", data);
      this.categoryWiseMovie = data.data.data.data;
    },
  },
});

Step 4: Set Up App Pages

Go to the pages folder. You'll find the following pages

1.index.vue
2.login.vue
3.registration.vue
4.manual-make-movie.vue

index.vue
This page includes three components:

HeroSection
TopMovies
CategoryWiseMovies

In the TopMovies component, add the following code:

<template>
<section class="mt-9 bg-lime-300 dark:bg-rose-500 p-5 rounded-md">
    <div class="flex items-center justify-between">
        <span class="font-semibold text-gray-700 text-base dark:text-white">Top Movies</span>
        <div class="flex items-center space-x-2 fill-gray-500">
            <NavigationArrow />
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="mt-4 grid grid-cols-2  sm:grid-cols-4 gap-x-5 gap-y-5">
        <div class="flex flex-col rounded-xl overflow-hidden aspect-square border dark:border-zinc-600" v-for="topMovie in aiMOvieStoreInfo.topMovies" :key="topMovie">
            <img :src="topMovie.image" class=" h-4/5 object-cover w-full  " alt="">
            <div class="w-full h-1/5 bg-white dark:bg-zinc-800 dark:text-white px-3 flex items-center justify-between border-t-2 border-t-red-600">
                <span class="capitalize  font-medium truncate">{{ topMovie.title }}</span>
                <div class="flex space-x-2 items-center text-xs">
                    <IconImdbLogo />
                    <span>{{ getRandomRating(topMovie.id) }}</span>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</section>
</template>

<script setup>
import { aiMovieStore } from '@/store/aiMovieStore.js';
import IconImdbLogo from '../Icon/ImdbLogo.vue';
import NavigationArrow from '../Icon/NavigationArrow.vue';

const aiMOvieStoreInfo = aiMovieStore();
const randomRating = ref((Math.random() * 4 + 5).toFixed(1));
watchEffect(()=>{
    aiMOvieStoreInfo.actionTopMovie();
},[])
const getRandomRating = (id) => {
  const hashValue = id % 1000; // Use a large enough number for uniqueness, adjust as needed
  const baseRating = (hashValue % 20 + 75) / 10; // Random number between 7.5 and 9.5
  const randomRating = parseFloat((Math.random() * (10 - baseRating) + baseRating).toFixed(1));

  return randomRating > 10 ? 10 : randomRating;
};

</script>

For the CategoryWiseMovies component, add this:

<template>
<section 
    class="mt-9 p-5 rounded-md" 
    v-for="category in aiMOvieStoreInfo.categoryWiseMovie" 
    :key="category"
    :class="getRandomColorClass()"
>
    <div class="flex items-center justify-between">
        <span class="font-semibold text-gray-700 text-base dark:text-white">{{ category.name }}</span>
        <div class="flex items-center space-x-2 fill-gray-500">
            <NavigationArrow />
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="mt-4 grid grid-cols-2 gap-y-5 sm:grid-cols-3 gap-x-5 ">
        <div class="flex flex-col rounded-xl overflow-hidden aspect-square border dark:border-zinc-600" v-for="movie in getRandomMovies(category.movies)" :key="movie">
            <img :src="getImageUrl(movie.image)" class=" h-4/5 object-cover w-full  " alt="">
            <div class="w-full h-1/5 bg-white dark:bg-zinc-800 dark:text-white px-3 flex items-center justify-between border-t-2 border-t-red-600">
                <span class="capitalize  font-medium truncate">{{ movie.title }}</span>
                <div class="flex space-x-2 items-center text-xs">
                    <IconImdbLogo />
                    <span>7.4</span>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</section>
</template>

<script setup>
import { aiMovieStore } from '@/store/aiMovieStore';
import IconImdbLogo from '../Icon/ImdbLogo.vue';
import NavigationArrow from '../Icon/NavigationArrow.vue';
const config = useRuntimeConfig();
const imageRootUrl = config.public.API_ROOT_URL

const aiMOvieStoreInfo = aiMovieStore();
onMounted(()=>{
    aiMOvieStoreInfo.actionCategoryWiseMovie()
})

// For make random color
const getRandomColorClass = () => {
  const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * colors.length);
  return colors[randomIndex];
};
const colors = [
  'bg-red-400',
  'bg-blue-400',
  'bg-green-400',
  'bg-yellow-400',
  'bg-pink-400',
  'bg-blue-800',
  'bg-black',

];
//image generat url
const getImageUrl = (thumbnail) => {
  const imageUrl = thumbnail ? thumbnail.replace('public', 'storage') : '';
  return `${imageRootUrl}/${imageUrl}`;
};

//random 3 movies generate
const getRandomMovies = (movies) => {
  if (movies.length <= 3) {
    return movies;
  } else {
    const shuffledMovies = [...movies].sort(() => Math.random() - 0.5);
    return shuffledMovies.slice(0, 3);
  }
};
</script>

With that, we've completed the home page, which should look like this:

# registration.vue Page
Add the following lines:

<template>
    <div class="flex h-screen items-center justify-center bg-gray-100">
