Feathers.js example using Vue.js and Vuex on the client to maintain state.

Requires a running mongodb server

Might I suggest a documentation addition on the main README.md under Usage for having mongodb installed and running. I ran into the error before realizing the dependency. Perhaps adding something like:

"This project uses MongoDB as the data store, so you will need to have it installed and an instance running."

I would submit a pull request. But I'm a newbie and have never submitted one before (said sheepishly).

Add example for handling auth with service

I'd be great to see how to handle auth with the messageService.

For example if I add auth required for /messages then this fails with "no auth" unless I catch it.
Should I import my app from services and then do app.authenticate(); in the catch?

export const fetchMessages = function({commit}) {
    // Call the messages service on the server via websocket
    messageService.find({}).then(result => {
        commit(types.FETCH_MESSAGES, result.data);
    });
};

Cannot resolve module 'socket.io-client' in feathers-chat-example/client/src/services

Hi Niall - First, thanks for this excellent feathersjs + vuejs example!

I'm a relative newbie to both libraries as well as to socketio, es6, and webpack/babel6 :) so I apologize in advance if I've missed something simple that caused the error.

I cloned the project and installed client and server side dependencies without an obvious problem. And starting the server showed no problem.

Then I ran npm run dev' on the client side and got theCannot resolve module 'socket.io-client'` error. I tried to search this down, best I could, as follows:

In client/src/service/index.js looks like this line import io from 'socket.io-client' is causing the error (but I'm not certain).

So, I looked for socket.io-client, and found it in client\node_modules\feathers-socketio\node_modules\ socket.io\node_modules\socket.io-client.

So, I'm at a loss to understand why the socket.io-client reference in client/src/service/index.js doesn't resolve.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I'm running on a Mac OS 10.9.5, node v.4.4.3, npm v.2.15.1. Here's the full error

Remove message - not working

I thought I broke something when upgrading to Vue 2.0, but it seems even when checking out the current version that messages aren't removed - is this intentional, as this is only an example?

Vue 2.0

Hi Niall,

Thanks a lot for this! It's really helping me get started with FeathersJS and integrating it with Vue 👍

I'm in the process of converting this to use Vue/Vuex 2.0, so if you fancy having bringing this example up-to-date I could send a PR if you'd like.

Cheers!

Will
