Vue - Supabase error when executing NPM run npm

Question

So I'm developing a Vue application. Later I wanted to add a backend using Supabase and deploy to Vercel. However, after I add the backend element to it, when I execute npm runserve it throws the following error:

ERROR  Failed to compile with 1 error                                                                                                                                                                                            1:31:54 PM

Does anyone know what this means? I have another Vue app set up with Vite and it runs fine locally, but not so well in this Vue app that is not set up with Vite.

Answer 1

Change the .env variable from VITE_SUPABASE_URL to VUE_APP_SUPABASE_URL, and change import.meta.env to process.env.

Example:

From now on

import { createClient } from '@supabase/supabase-js'

const supabaseUrl = import.meta.env.VITE_SUPABASE_URL
const supabaseAnonKey = import.meta.env.VITE_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY

export const supabase = createClient(supabaseUrl, supabaseAnonKey)

To this point

import { createClient } from "@supabase/supabase-js";

const supabaseUrl = process.env.VUE_APP_SUPABASE_URL;
const supabaseAnonKey = process.env.VUE_APP_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY;

export const supabase = createClient(supabaseUrl, supabaseAnonKey);
