@ezy/nuxt-renderer-extractor

extract rendering part of nuxt to produce lightweight bundle for cloud computing environments

Why

The nuxt + serverless + AWS lambda combination could be really great, but serverless do not support tree-shaking and just exclude devDependencies. As a result bundle produced with nuxt are really large (30-46 MB), way to close to AWS lambda deployment package size limit (50 MB).

To solve the problem this package extract just the nuxt renderer from your installed nuxt version and produce a drop-in place replacement package for nuxt.

Install

npm i --save-dev nuxt@VERSION
npm i --save-dev @ezy/nuxt-renderer-extractor

API

@ezy/nuxt-renderer-extractor aka ezy-nre have a small API with only 2 commands:

npx ezy-nre list to list all generated versions of @ezy/nuxt-renderer
npx ezy-nre generate to generate a version of @ezy/nuxt-renderer matching your nuxt package

Usage

npx ezy-nre generate
npm i node_modules/@ezy/nuxt-renderer-extractor/generated/VERSION

now your can replace nuxt imports with your shinny new renderer.

// import { Nuxt } from 'nuxt'
import { Nuxt } from '@ezy/nuxt-renderer';
