Vue.js 2 and Bootstrap 4 Web Development

Overview of this book

In this book, we will build a full stack web application right from scratch up to its deployment. We will start by building a small introduction application and then proceed to the creation of a fully functional, dynamic responsive web application called ProFitOro. In this application, we will build a Pomodoro timer combined with office workouts. Besides the Pomodoro timer and ProFitOro workouts will enable authentication and collaborative content management. We will explore topics such as Vue reactive data binding, reusable components, routing, and Vuex store along with its state, actions, mutations, and getters. We will create Vue applications using both webpack and Nuxt.js templates while exploring cool hot Nuxt.js features such as code splitting and server-side rendering. We will use Jest to test this application, and we will even revive some trigonometry from our secondary school! While developing the app, you will go through the new grid system of Bootstrap 4 along with Vue.js’ directives. We will connect Vuex store to the Firebase real-time database, data storage, and authentication APIs and use this data later inside the application’s reactive components. Finally, we will quickly deploy our application using the Firebase hosting mechanism.

Storing new workouts using the Firebase real-time database


Before starting this section, check the code in the chapter8/3/profitoro folder. Both the Workouts and NewWorkout components are filled with a markup.

Note

Don't forget to run npm install and npm run dev!

It doesn't work yet, but it displays something:

Workout management page with some content

In this section, we are going to add workout objects to our workouts resource in the Firebase database. After that, we can finally learn how to store images using the Firebase data storage mechanism.

First, let's add Firebase bindings just like we've done for statistics and configuration objects. Open the action.js file and find the bindFirebaseReferences method. Here, we should add the binding for the workouts resource. So, this method now contains three bindings:

// state/actions.js
bindFirebaseReferences: firebaseAction(({state, commit, dispatch}, user) => {
  let db = firebaseApp.database()
  let configRef = db.ref(`/configuration/${user.uid...
