Admin client

This page replaces the former navigation-only placeholder with a practical developer reference for the admin-client feature. It explains the option, shows how to configure it in nuxt.config.ts, and gives a minimal usage example.

Purpose

The admin-client feature helps keep the Nuxt module configuration, Feathers runtime, generated services, TypeScript client and CLI workflow aligned.

When to use this option

Use this page when you need to:

• configure the admin-client feature;
• document the decision in a starter or application;
• validate the setup with a CLI command;
• avoid drift between configuration, generated files and runtime behavior.

Configuration example

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['nuxt-feathers-zod'],

  feathers: {
    servicesDirs: ['services'],
    client: true,
  }
})

CLI example

bunx nuxt-feathers-zod doctor

Runtime example

const config = useRuntimeConfig()
const mode = config.public._feathers?.client?.mode

const { api } = useFeathers()
const messages = api.service('messages')
const result = await messages.find({ query: { $limit: 10 } })

Practical advice

• Keep runtime-affecting options explicit in nuxt.config.ts.
• Prefer CLI-generated services so manifests and generated types stay synchronized.
• Run bunx nuxt-feathers-zod doctor after structural changes.
• Use --dry before write operations on an existing project.
