Steps to migrate from existing Vue CLI project to Quasar CLI.

[hpawar]

Hi,
I currently have a Vue project created using Vue CLI to which I added Quasar using vue add Quasar command. Now I plan to migrate to Quasar CLI. I saw a post that tells briefly how to do so. (https://forum.quasar-framework.org/topic/5585/how-to-migrate-from-vue-cli)

In the vue CLI project, I installed quasar CLI using npm install -g @quasar/cli. But I didn’t see quasar.conf.js file being created. I believe it gets created on creating a new project using quasar CLI.

If the above approach is not the right way to go, then do I need to create a new project and manually copy my files to the newly created quasar CLI project?

Can someone please tell me the steps to follow for this migration?

Thanks

When you do npm install -g @quasar/cli, you are globally installing Quasar’s CLI on your computer. It has nothing to do with your Vue project.

So, yes, you now have to run quasar create my-new-project and then transfer your files over to the new Quasar project.

yep, it’s also suggested for migrating pre v1 projects to v1.
