This example demonstrates how to run a Vite project which
executes via the vite program on top of the node runtime.
Note
This is not the most efficient way to run a Vite project! See
httpserver-nginx-vite-vanilla for more details.
The project was instantiated via:
npm create vite@latest my-vue-app -- --template vanilla
The accompanying Dockerfile and Kraftfile are
necessary for deploying to Unikraft Cloud.
To run this example, follow these steps:
-
Install the CLI. Use the unikraft CLI or the legacy kraft CLI. You need a BuildKit builder. The easiest way to get one is via Docker. Alternatively, you can also directly set up and use BuildKit, see the quick start.
Note: The unikraft CLI is the current standard, while kraft is the legacy version. Choose one of the CLIs below and only run the commands associated with it for the rest of this guide.
-
Clone the
examplesrepository andcdinto theexamples/httpserver-node-vite-vanilla/directory:git clone https://github.com/unikraft-cloud/examples cd examples/httpserver-node-vite-vanilla/
Make sure to log into Unikraft Cloud and pick a metro close to you.
This guide uses fra (Frankfurt, π©πͺ):

Using the legacy kraft CLI
# Set Unikraft Cloud access token

In this case, the instance name is httpserver-node-vite-vanilla-w9f3p and the address is https://bold-rain-mv5tx8wy.fra.unikraft.app.
They're different for each run.
After deploying, you can query the service using the provided URL.
