This project's public API token: APITOKEN

Copy
The loader library works with Nuxt 3 and Nuxt Bridge, but not Nuxt 2.

Installation

Copy
npm install @plasmicapp/loader-vue
# or yarn add @plasmicapp/loader-vue

Initialization

Initialize Plasmic with the project ID and public API token. Define this in its own module to make it available globally.

plasmic-init.ts
Copy
import { initPlasmicLoader } from "@plasmicapp/loader-vue";
export const PLASMIC = initPlasmicLoader({
  projects: [
    {
      id: "PROJECTID",  // ID of a project you are using
      token: "APITOKEN"  // API token for that project
    }
  ],
  // Fetches the latest revisions, whether or not they were unpublished!
  // Disable for production to ensure you render only published changes.
  preview: true,
})

To find your project’s ID and public API token: open the project in Plasmic Studio.

The project ID is in the URL, like: https://studio.plasmic.app/projects/PROJECTID.

The public API token can be found by clicking the Code toolbar button.

Auto load all Plasmic pages

To automatically render all Plasmic-defined pages at the routes specified in Plasmic, create a Nuxt catch-all route that fetches and renders all pages at build time:

pages/[...cacthall].vue
Copy
<template>
  <PlasmicRootProvider :loader="PLASMIC" :prefetchedData="plasmicData">
    <PlasmicComponent :component="$route.fullPath" />
  </PlasmicRootProvider>
</template>


<script setup lang="ts">
import { PlasmicRootProvider, PlasmicComponent } from "@plasmicapp/loader-vue";
import { PLASMIC } from "../plasmic-init";


const route = useRoute();
const plasmicData = await PLASMIC.fetchComponentData(route.fullPath);
</script>

Render a single Plasmic page or component

Note: You can instead auto-load all Plasmic pages at the correct routes (recommended) rather than manually loading individual pages—see previous section.

We use Nuxt’s asyncData() to fetch the design statically/server-side.

COMPONENT_OR_PAGEROUTE refers to the name of the page or component that you want to render, such as Winter22LandingPage. If it’s a page, you can also use the route you assigned the page in Plasmic, like /landing.

pages/mypage.vue
Copy
<template>
  <PlasmicRootProvider :loader="this.loader" :prefetchedData="this.plasmicData">
    <PlasmicComponent component="COMPONENTNAME" />
  </PlasmicRootProvider>
</template>


<script lang="ts">
import Vue from 'vue'
import { PlasmicRootProvider, PlasmicComponent } from '@plasmicapp/loader-vue'
import { PLASMIC } from '../plasmic-init'


export default {
  components: {
    PlasmicRootProvider,
    PlasmicComponent,
  },
  computed: {
    loader() {
      return PLASMIC
    },
  },
  async asyncData() {
    const plasmicData = await PLASMIC.fetchComponentData(`COMPONENTNAME`)
    return {
      plasmicData,
    }
  },
}
</script>

There’s much more to explore!

  • Perform server-side rendering.
  • Render different variants.
  • Override the content or props.
  • Add dynamic behavior.
