Production???

[cmy82]

I know the docs are being updated (and I'm making notes of things as I come across them), but how do you view the site without running the PHP and Vite servers? I've set the UF_MODE="production" in my .env file, but nothing happens.

Also of note (I can look into fixing it if I can figure out where to start), even though the default seems to be Vue\Vite now, the default [assets]build still seems to reference webpack as running the assets:build command just does the npm install but doesn't actually create any files. Though running assets:vite does build the vue js files and move everything into the assets folder in the public directory, but trying to view the site through wamp (or any other local webserver) just gives a blank page and all of the url links on the page source still show http://[::1]:5173/......

Long story short :

1. Set env to production
2. Build the assets to the public/ folder using bake, assets:build or assets:vite (depending on your env, Webpack or Vite will be called with the first two; Same with the dev server or build step for all three)
3. When in production, Twig will serve the assets from public/ instead of the dev server (which you don't run in production)

That's the part that's not working. I assume setting UF_MODE="production" is the setting env to production. The assets have been built using bake assets:vite and the files are in the public directory. But going to the url in wamp just shows a blank page, and viewing the source still shows all of the urls as http://[::1]/:5173/{whatever page}. It's pulling the assets and URLs as if it's till expecting the dev servers to be running.

Have you changed scripts_site.html.twig, stylesheets_site.html.twig, or changed VITE_DEV_ENABLED ? Didn't changed the config?

[cmy82]

Setting VITE_DEV_ENABLED=false did the trick, but now I have other issues to work through as the assets can be found in dev, but can't be found in production; amongst other errors after clearing some vue\vite warnings about how to reference asset urls.

Note in a default installation, VITE_DEV_ENABLED will be set to false by default in production from the production config found in the Core Sprinkle.

Which is what I thought UF_MODE='production' would do, but it didn't. Though I didn't try without the quotes; but the learn notes has them there.

I did a quick test on a fresh install, and with or without quote everything works out of the box with PHP Built in server on MacOS.
