Django-compressor parceljs is base on Django-Compressor, which bundles and minifies your typescript, vue, react, scss etc in a Django template into cacheable static files using parceljs and django-compressor.
For more information visit Django-Compressor
Install django-compress:
pip install git+https://github.com/eadwinCode/django-compressor.git@develop
or
pip install django-compressor-parceljs
Install parcel-bundler:
npm install -g parcel
Add it to your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'compressor',
...
)
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder',
'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
# other finders..
'compressor.finders.CompressorFinder',
)To minify your code for production, you need to set COMPRESS_ENABLED and COMPRESS_OFFLINE to true in settings.py.
In django-compressor, the value of COMPRESS_ENABLED = !DEBUG is not set in the settings.
COMPRESS_ENABLED = True
COMPRESS_OFFLINE = TrueFor more information on django-compressor-settings
In your template, load compress {% load compress %}
then use {% compress parcel %} <script> {% endcompress %} to load a script. for example:
{% load static %}
{% load compress %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Vue Django Testing</title>
</head>
<body>
....
{% compress parcel file myts %}
<script src="{% static 'js/index.ts' %}"></script>
{% endcompress %}
</body>
...Create a vue project in your django project root.
For example check out django_vue project
npm init --yes npm install -D vue-template-compiler, @vue/component-compiler-utils npm install vue
In your django project app create
static/components/test.vue static/js/index.js
In static/components/test.vue,
<template>
<div>
<h1>{{ message }}</h1>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "app",
components: {},
data: {
message: "Hello Vue",
},
computed: {}
};
</script>
<style lang="scss">
</style>In static/js/index.js,
import Vue from "vue";
import test from "../components/test.vue";
new Vue(test).$mount("#components-demo");In your django template,
{% load static %}
{% load compress %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Vue Django Testing</title>
</head>
<body>
....
<div id="components-demo"></div>
{% compress parcel file myjs %}
<script src="{% static 'js/index.js' %}"></script>
{% endcompress %}
</body>
...Run runserver
python manage.py runserver
You have successfully bundled your vue app into your django template.
Integrating compilers into django-compressor is quiet very easy. All you need is to provide a COMPRESS_PRECOMPILERS option in django settings.py. For more information visit django-compressor precompilers
COMPRESS_PRECOMPILERS = (
('text/coffeescript', 'coffee --compile --stdio'),
('text/less', 'lessc {infile} {outfile}'),
('text/x-sass', 'sass {infile} {outfile}'),
('text/x-scss', 'sass --scss {infile} {outfile}'),
('text/stylus', 'stylus < {infile} > {outfile}'),
('text/foobar', 'path.to.MyPrecompilerFilter'),
)Use compressor.filters.parceljs.ParserFilterCSS on scss, sass or less in COMPRESS_PRECOMPILERS options as filter. For example:
COMPRESS_PRECOMPILERS = (
# ('text/coffeescript', 'coffee --compile --stdio'),
('text/less', 'compressor.filters.parceljs.ParserFilterCSS'),
# ('text/x-sass', 'sass {infile} {outfile}'),
('text/x-scss', 'compressor.filters.parceljs.ParserFilterCSS'),
# ('text/stylus', 'stylus < {infile} > {outfile}'),
# ('text/foobar', 'path.to.MyPrecompilerFilter'),
)In your template,
{% load static %}
{% load compress %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Vue Django Testing</title>
{% compress css file style %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/x-scss" href="{% static 'css/style.scss'%}">
{% endcompress %}
</head>
<body>
.......Add the type="text/x-scss" for django-compressor to use the precompiler options to compile the asset.
There is alittle drawback with parceljs css url resolver. There is no configuration for parceljs to ignore resolving css url since django will always resolve static urls automatically. Read more this issue
A solution is to use ///.. in the url path followed by /static/(filepath)
body{
background-color: lightblue;
background-image: url(///../static/img/ssd/avatar1.png);
button{
font-size: .8rem;
}
}Add lang attribute to the script tag <script lang="ts"></script>
npm init --yes npm install -D @babel/core, @babel/preset-env, typescript
{% load static %}
{% load compress %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Vue Django Testing</title>
</head>
<body>
....
{% compress parcel file myts %}
<script lang="ts">
interface IUser {
name: string,
age: number
}
class User implements IUser{
constructor(user:IUser){
this.name = user.name
this.age = user.age
}
name: string
age: number
get_name = () => {
return this.name
};
}
const Peter = new User({name:'Peter', age:32})
console.log(Peter)
</script>
{% endcompress %}
