Coding Standards

Vue/TypeScript Style

• Composition API: Use <script setup> syntax
• TypeScript: Strict mode, explicit types for props/emits
• Component Names: PascalCase for components
• File Names: PascalCase for components, kebab-case for utilities

Component Structure

<template>
  <div class="component-wrapper">
    <!-- Template content -->
  </div>
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
// Imports
import { ref, computed } from 'vue'

// Props/Emits with TypeScript
interface Props {
  gameId: string
  showScouting: boolean
}

const props = defineProps<Props>()

const emit = defineEmits<{
  update: [value: string]
  close: []
}>()

// Reactive state
const localState = ref('')

// Computed properties
const displayMode = computed(() => {
  return props.showScouting ? 'detailed' : 'simple'
})

// Methods
const handleClick = () => {
  emit('update', localState.value)
}
</script>

<style scoped>
/* Component-specific styles */
.component-wrapper {
  @apply p-4 bg-white rounded-lg;
}
</style>

Composable Pattern

// composables/useGameActions.ts
export const useGameActions = (gameId: string) => {
  const { socket } = useWebSocket()
  const gameStore = useGameStore()

  const setDefense = (positioning: string) => {
    if (!socket.value?.connected) {
      throw new Error('Not connected')
    }
    socket.value.emit('set_defense', { game_id: gameId, positioning })
  }

  return {
    setDefense,
    // ... other actions
  }
}

Store Pattern (Pinia)

// store/game.ts
export const useGameStore = defineStore('game', () => {
  // State
  const gameState = ref<GameState | null>(null)
  const loading = ref(false)

  // Computed
  const currentInning = computed(() => gameState.value?.inning ?? 1)

  // Actions
  const setGameState = (state: GameState) => {
    gameState.value = state
  }

  return {
    // State
    gameState,
    loading,
    // Computed
    currentInning,
    // Actions
    setGameState,
  }
})

Configuration

Environment Variables

Create .env file with:

NUXT_PUBLIC_LEAGUE_ID=pd
NUXT_PUBLIC_LEAGUE_NAME=Paper Dynasty
NUXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://localhost:8000
NUXT_PUBLIC_WS_URL=http://localhost:8000
NUXT_PUBLIC_DISCORD_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
NUXT_PUBLIC_DISCORD_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:3001/auth/callback

Nuxt Config

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/tailwindcss', '@pinia/nuxt'],

  runtimeConfig: {
    public: {
      leagueId: 'pd',
      leagueName: 'Paper Dynasty',
      apiUrl: process.env.NUXT_PUBLIC_API_URL || 'http://localhost:8000',
      // ... other config
    }
  },

  css: ['~/assets/css/tailwind.css'],

  typescript: {
    strict: true,
    typeCheck: true
  }
})

Tailwind Config (PD Theme)

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colors: {
        primary: {
          DEFAULT: '#16a34a', // PD Green
          50: '#f0fdf4',
          100: '#dcfce7',
          // ... other shades
        },
        secondary: {
          DEFAULT: '#ea580c', // PD Orange
          // ... other shades
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

WebSocket Integration

Connection Management

// composables/useWebSocket.ts
const { $socket } = useNuxtApp()
const authStore = useAuthStore()

onMounted(() => {
  if (authStore.token) {
    $socket.connect(authStore.token)
  }
})

onUnmounted(() => {
  $socket.disconnect()
})

Event Handling

// composables/useGameEvents.ts
export const useGameEvents = () => {
  const { socket } = useWebSocket()
  const gameStore = useGameStore()

  onMounted(() => {
    socket.value?.on('game_state_update', (data: GameState) => {
      gameStore.setGameState(data)
    })

    socket.value?.on('play_completed', (data: PlayOutcome) => {
      gameStore.handlePlayCompleted(data)
    })
  })

  onUnmounted(() => {
    socket.value?.off('game_state_update')
    socket.value?.off('play_completed')
  })
}

PD-Specific Features

Scouting Data Display

<template>
  <div class="scouting-panel">
    <h3 class="text-lg font-bold mb-2">Scouting Report</h3>
    <div class="grid grid-cols-2 gap-2">
      <div v-for="(value, key) in player.scouting_data" :key="key">
        <span class="text-sm text-gray-600">{{ formatLabel(key) }}</span>
        <div class="flex items-center gap-2">
          <div class="flex-1 bg-gray-200 rounded-full h-2">
            <div
              class="bg-primary h-2 rounded-full"
              :style="{ width: `${value}%` }"
            />
          </div>
          <span class="text-sm font-semibold">{{ value }}</span>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</template>

Advanced Player Card

<template>
  <div class="player-card">
    <!-- Basic Info -->
    <img :src="player.image" :alt="player.name" />
    <h3>{{ player.name }}</h3>

    <!-- Ratings -->
    <div class="ratings">
      <span>Overall: {{ player.ratings.overall }}</span>
      <span>Batting: {{ player.ratings.batting }}</span>
    </div>

    <!-- Probabilities (collapsible on mobile) -->
    <details class="md:open">
      <summary>Probabilities</summary>
      <div class="grid grid-cols-2 gap-1 text-sm">
        <div v-for="(prob, outcome) in player.probabilities" :key="outcome">
          {{ outcome }}: {{ (prob * 100).toFixed(1) }}%
        </div>
      </div>
    </details>
  </div>
</template>

Mobile-First Design

Responsive Breakpoints

• xs: 375px (Small phones)
• sm: 640px (Large phones)
• md: 768px (Tablets)
• lg: 1024px (Desktop)

Mobile Layout Principles

• Single column layout on mobile
• Bottom sheet for decision inputs
• Sticky scoreboard at top
• Touch-friendly buttons (44x44px minimum)
• Swipe gestures for navigation
• Collapsible scouting data on mobile

Example Responsive Component

<template>
  <div class="game-view">
    <!-- Sticky scoreboard -->
    <div class="sticky top-0 z-10 bg-white shadow">
      <ScoreBoard :score="score" />
    </div>

    <!-- Main content -->
    <div class="container mx-auto p-4">
      <!-- Mobile: stacked, Desktop: grid -->
      <div class="grid grid-cols-1 lg:grid-cols-3 gap-4">
        <div class="lg:col-span-2">
          <GameBoard :state="gameState" />
        </div>
        <div>
          <ScoutingPanel :player="currentBatter" />
          <PlayByPlay :plays="plays" />
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</template>

Common Tasks

Adding a New Page

1. Create file in pages/ directory
2. Use <script setup> with TypeScript
3. Add necessary composables (auth, websocket, etc.)
4. Define route meta if needed

Adding a New Component

1. Create in appropriate components/ subdirectory
2. Define Props/Emits interfaces
3. Use Tailwind for styling
4. Export for use in other components

Adding a New Store

1. Create in store/ directory
2. Use Composition API syntax
3. Define state, computed, and actions
4. Export with defineStore

Performance Considerations

• Code Splitting: Auto by Nuxt routes
• Lazy Loading: Use defineAsyncComponent for heavy components (especially scouting panels)
• Image Optimization: Use Nuxt Image module
• State Management: Keep only necessary data in stores
• WebSocket: Throttle/debounce frequent updates
• Scouting Data: Lazy load detailed analytics

Troubleshooting

WebSocket Won't Connect

• Check backend is running at NUXT_PUBLIC_WS_URL
• Verify token is valid
• Check browser console for errors
• Ensure CORS is configured correctly on backend

Type Errors

• Run npm run type-check to see all errors
• Ensure types are imported correctly
• Check for mismatched types in props/emits
• Verify PdPlayer type matches backend structure

Hot Reload Not Working

• Restart dev server
• Clear .nuxt directory: rm -rf .nuxt
• Check for syntax errors in components
