Integration with Nuxt

We can use nuxt-elysia, a community plugin for Nuxt, to setup Elysia on Nuxt API route with Eden Treaty.

  1. Install the plugin with the following command:
bash
bun add elysia @elysiajs/eden
bun add -d nuxt-elysia
  1. Add nuxt-elysia to your Nuxt config:
ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
    modules: [ 
        'nuxt-elysia'
    ] 
})
  1. Create api.ts in the project root:
typescript
export default () => new Elysia() 
  .get('/hello', () => ({ message: 'Hello world!' }) 
  1. Use Eden Treaty in your Nuxt app:
vue
<template>
    <div>
        <p>{{ data.message }}</p>
    </div>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const { $api } = useNuxtApp()

const { data } = await useAsyncData(async () => {
    const { data, error } = await $api.hello.get()

    if (error)
        throw new Error('Failed to call API')

    return data
})
</script>

This will automatically setup Elysia to run on Nuxt API route automatically.

Prefix

By default, Elysia will be mounted on /_api but we can customize it with nuxt-elysia config.

ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
	nuxtElysia: {
		path: '/api'
	}
})

This will mount Elysia on /api instead of /_api.
