 # fastapi-vue-setup
 
-Tool to create or patch FastAPI project with a Vue frontend, with integrated build and development systems. Only building the package needs JS runtime and Vue. Additionally, a devmode setup using Vite dev server with hot auto reloads is available via the scripts/devserver.py script (only intended to be used on the source repo, not included in installed package).
+Tool to create or patch FastAPI project with a Vue frontend, with integrated build and development systems. The Python package will not need any JS runtime because it includes a prebuilt Vue frontend in it. For development (Vite and FastAPI auto reloads) and building the package one of npm, deno or bun is required (node is recommended due to bugs in deno and bun).
 
 ## Features
 
 - **No JavaScript**: Your Python package can be installed and used without any JS runtime
-- **Create new projects** with `uv init` + `create-vue` (interactive)
-- **Patch existing projects** with build hooks and dev server scripts
 - **Integrated build system**: Vue frontend builds into Python package during `uv build`
 - **Development server**: Single command runs Vite + FastAPI with hot-reload
-- **Optimized static serving**: zstd compression, ETag caching, SPA support

 ## Usage
 
+The script may be used to create an all new project folder or to patch or update an existing project to use this framework. It autodetects the project folder given and performs the appropriate actions.
+
 ### Create a new project
 
 ```sh
-fastapi-vue-setup new my-app
+fastapi-vue-setup my-app
 ```
 
 This will:
 
 1. Run `uv init my-app`
-2. Run `npm create vue@latest frontend` (interactive)
+2. Run `create-vue frontend` (interactive - choose your Vue options)
 3. Patch the project with FastAPI integration
+4. Install dependencies via `uv add`
 
 ### Patch an existing project
 
-```bash
-fastapi-vue-setup patch /path/to/project
+You should have your pyproject.toml at the current working directory, and Vue with its package.json under `frontend/`. If either one is missing, new applications will be initialised. Otherwise we only patch what can be patched without breaking your existing projects.
+
+```sh
+fastapi-vue-setup .
 ```
 
+### CLI Options
+
+```
+fastapi-vue-setup [project-dir] [options]
+
 Options:
-
-- `--module-name NAME`: Python module name (auto-detected from pyproject.toml)
-- `--vite-port PORT`: Vite dev server port (default: 5173)
-- `--backend-port PORT`: Backend API port in dev mode (default: 5174)
-- `--prod-port PORT`: Production server port (default: 8000)
-- `--force`: Overwrite existing files
-- `--dry-run`: Preview changes without modifying files
-
-### Update an existing project
-
-```bash
-fastapi-vue-setup update /path/to/project
+  --module-name NAME    Python module name (auto-detected from pyproject.toml)
+  --dry-run             Preview changes without modifying files
 ```
 
-Same as `patch --force` - overwrites template files with latest versions.
-
 ## Port Configuration
 
-The tool uses three distinct ports:
+In development, you access the Vite dev server at `http://localhost:5173`. Vite proxies `/api/*` requests to FastAPI at port 5180. Ports and hosts of Vite and FastAPI are configurable by `devserver.py` arguments.
 
-| Port | Purpose               | Used by                        |
-| ---- | --------------------- | ------------------------------ |
-| 5173 | Vite dev server (HMR) | `npm run dev` via devserver.py |
-| 5174 | FastAPI in dev mode   | uvicorn via devserver.py       |
-| 8000 | Production server     | `uv run my-app`                |
+In production, FastAPI serves both the API and static files at `http://localhost:5080`. Configurable by `host:port` argument with defaults set in `__main__.py`
 
-In development, you access the app at `http://localhost:5173`. Vite proxies `/api/*` requests to FastAPI at port 5174.
+## Main CLI
 
-In production, FastAPI serves both the API and static files from the same port (8000).
+If your project didn't already have `__main__.py`, we create one that runs the FastAPI app with richer configuration than what the FastAPI CLI offers. Running your module starts it in production mode, and optionally host:port may be given as argument to specify where it listens.
+
+If you are running behind a reverse proxy like [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) on localhost, your app will trust the proxy headers it sends. However, if you need to configure another proxy host or IP, set `FORWARDED_ALLOW_IPS` env variable before running the server.
+
+The devserver script depends on this CLI entry for running the backend. You will have to modify the `devserver.py` script if your app has its own incompatible main module. Note that we set FastAPI debug mode and Uvicorn reload when configured via `FASTAPI_VUE_BACKEND_URL` env variable (set by `devserver.py`), while for normal production use these stay disabled. The same variable also controls static files serving (disabled in dev mode).
+
+
+## Vite Plugin Configuration
+
+The `fastapiVue()` plugin in `vite.config.ts` accepts options to customize proxy behavior:
+
+```js
+import fastapiVue from "./vite-plugin-fastapi.js";
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [
+    vue(),
+    // Default: proxies only /api
+    fastapiVue(),
+
+    // Or specify custom paths to proxy to backend
+    fastapiVue({ paths: ["/api", "/auth", "/ws"] }),
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+The plugin reads environment `FASTAPI_VUE_BACKEND_URL` (default: `http://localhost:5180`) to determine where to proxy requests. This is set automatically by `devserver.py`.

-## Static File Serving
+## Frontend serving
 
-The `Frontend` class provides:
-
-- **Automatic zstd compression** at level 18
-- **Smart caching**: Content-hashed assets get `immutable` cache headers
-- **ETag support**: 304 Not Modified responses for cached content
-- **SPA routing**: Falls back to index.html for client-side routes
-- **Favicon handling**: Automatic /favicon.ico from hashed assets
+Your FastAPI app will use [fastapi-vue](https://git.zi.fi/LeoVasanko/fastapi-vue) to serve the frontend files. Refer to that package's documentation for further configuration.

+# fastapi-vue
+
+Implements Single-Page-App serving at site root with FastAPI, that the standard StaticFiles module cannot handle. This also caches and zstd compresses the files for lightning-fast operation. This is primarily meant for use with Vue frontend, but technically can host any static files in a similar manner.
+
+## Installation
+
+Script [fastapi-vue-setup](https://git.zi.fi/LeoVasanko/fastapi-vue-setup) should normally be used to convert or create a project with connection between FastAPI and Vue. The target project will depend on this package to serve its static files.
+
+```sh
+uvx fastapi-vue-setup --help
+```
+
+Refer to instructions below for further configuration.
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
+from fastapi import FastAPI
+from fastapi_vue import Frontend
+
+frontend = Frontend(
+    Path(__file__).with_name("frontend-build"),
+    spa=True,
+    cached=["/assets/"],
+)
+
+@asynccontextmanager
+async def lifespan(app: FastAPI):
+    await frontend.load()
+    yield
+
+app = FastAPI(lifespan=lifespan)
+
+# Add API routes here...
+
+# Final catch-all route for frontend files (keep at end of file)
+frontend.route(app, "/")
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+- `directory`: Path to static files directory
+- `spa`: Enable SPA mode (serve index.html for unknown routes)
+- `cached`: Path prefixes for immutable cache headers (browser won't check for changes)
+- `favicon`: Path to serve at `/favicon.ico` (e.g., `"/logo.png"` will be served as `image/png`)
+- `zstdlevel`: Compression level (default: 18)
