Static SvekteKit frontend for PocketBase backend

Setup

npx pnpm install # install dependencies
npm run build # compile frontend

The above produces build output directory which is then used by PocketBase to serve the frontend of your app.

Live Development

# start the backend, if not already running ...
npm run dev:backend
# and then start the frontend ...
npm run dev

Now visit http://localhost:5173 (sk) or http://localhost:8090 (pb)

Generated Types

The file generated-types.ts contains TypeScript definitions of Record types mirroring the fields in your database collections. But it needs to be regenerated every time you modify the schema. This can be done by simply running the typegen script in the frontend's package.json. So remember to run npm run typegen after every schema change.

Building

To create a production version of your app (static HTML/JS app):

NOTE: The build below will fail unless the backend has at least 1 post created. So please create a "posts" record using the app UI or the admin UI before running build below.

# compile frontend
npm run build
# and then serve it with pocketbase
npm run backend

The above generates output in the build folder. Now you can serve production compiled version of the frontend using the backend (with --publicDir ../frontend/build), any static file web server, or npm preview.
