version: "1.0.1" name: bun-nuxt description: Use when running Nuxt 3 with Bun runtime, building Vue/Nuxt apps with Bun, or configuring Nuxt projects to use Bun for development and production. license: MIT

Bun Nuxt

Run Nuxt 3 applications with Bun for faster development.

Quick Start

bash

# Create new Nuxt project
bunx nuxi@latest init my-app
cd my-app
 
# Install dependencies
bun install
 
# Development
bun run dev
 
# Build
bun run build
 
# Preview production
bun run preview

Secure Installation

Scaffolding tools like bunx nuxi init download and execute remote code. Before running, follow supply chain security best practices:

Block post-install scripts — Bun disables them by default; allow specific packages via trustedDependencies in package.json
Cooldown period — Configure minimumReleaseAge in bunfig.toml to wait 7 days for new versions
Audit before installing — Run socket package score npm <pkg> or use socket npm install <pkg> to check packages

Load the dependency-upgrade skill for full security configuration including Socket CLI integration, cooldown setup, lockfile validation, and CI enforcement.

Project Setup

package.json

json

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "nuxt dev",
    "build": "nuxt build",
    "generate": "nuxt generate",
    "preview": "nuxt preview",
    "postinstall": "nuxt prepare"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "nuxt": "^4.0.0",
    "vue": "^3.5.0"
  }
}

Use Bun Runtime

json

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "bun --bun nuxt dev",
    "build": "bun --bun nuxt build",
    "preview": "bun --bun .output/server/index.mjs"
  }
}

Configuration

nuxt.config.ts

typescript

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  // Enable SSR
  ssr: true,
  // Nitro configuration
  nitro: {
    // Use Bun preset
    preset: "bun",
    // External packages
    externals: {
      external: ["bun:sqlite"],
    },
  },
  // Development
  devServer: {
    port: 3000,
  },
  // Modules
  modules: ["@nuxt/ui", "@pinia/nuxt"],
});

Using Bun APIs

Server Routes

typescript

// server/api/users.ts
import { Database } from "bun:sqlite";
export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
  const db = new Database("data.sqlite");
  const users = db.query("SELECT * FROM users").all();
  db.close();
  return users;
});

Server Middleware

typescript

// server/middleware/auth.ts
export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
  const token = getHeader(event, "Authorization");
  if (!token && event.path.startsWith("/api/protected")) {
    throw createError({
      statusCode: 401,
      message: "Unauthorized",
    });
  }
});

File Operations

typescript

// server/api/files/[name].ts
export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
  const name = getRouterParam(event, "name");
  const file = Bun.file(`./data/${name}`);
  if (!(await file.exists())) {
    throw createError({
      statusCode: 404,
      message: "File not found",
    });
  }
  return file.text();
});

Composables

useFetch with Server Data

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
// Fetches from server/api/users.ts
const { data: users, pending, error } = await useFetch("/api/users");
</script>
 
<template>
  <div v-if="pending">Loading...</div>
  <div v-else-if="error">Error: {{ error.message }}</div>
  <ul v-else>
    <li v-for="user in users" :key="user.id">{{ user.name }}</li>
  </ul>
</template>

Server-Only Composables

typescript

// composables/useDatabase.ts
export const useDatabase = () => {
  // Only runs on server
  if (process.server) {
    const { Database } = require("bun:sqlite");
    return new Database("data.sqlite");
  }
  return null;
};

Server Utilities

H3 Event Handling

typescript

// server/api/users.post.ts
export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
  // Read body
  const body = await readBody(event);
  // Get query params
  const query = getQuery(event);
  // Get headers
  const auth = getHeader(event, "Authorization");
  // Get cookies
  const session = getCookie(event, "session");
  // Set cookie
  setCookie(event, "visited", "true", {
    httpOnly: true,
    maxAge: 60 * 60 * 24,
  });
  return { success: true };
});

Database Utility

typescript

// server/utils/db.ts
import { Database } from "bun:sqlite";
let db: Database | null = null;
export function getDb() {
  if (!db) {
    db = new Database("data.sqlite");
    db.run(`
      CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS users (
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
        name TEXT NOT NULL
      )
    `);
  }
  return db;
}

typescript

// server/api/users.ts
export default defineEventHandler(() => {
  const db = getDb();
  return db.query("SELECT * FROM users").all();
});

Nitro Features

Server Plugins

typescript

// server/plugins/database.ts
export default defineNitroPlugin((nitroApp) => {
  // Initialize on startup
  console.log("Database initialized");
  // Cleanup on shutdown
  nitroApp.hooks.hook("close", () => {
    console.log("Closing database");
  });
});

Scheduled Tasks

typescript

// server/tasks/cleanup.ts
export default defineTask({
  meta: {
    name: "cleanup",
    description: "Clean old data",
  },
  run() {
    const db = getDb();
    db.run("DELETE FROM logs WHERE created_at < ?", [
      Date.now() - 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
    ]);
    return { result: "Cleaned" };
  },
});

Deployment

FROM oven/bun:1
 
WORKDIR /app
COPY --from=builder /app/.output /app/.output
 
EXPOSE 3000
 
CMD ["bun", ".output/server/index.mjs"]

Environment Variables

bash

# .env
NUXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=https://api.example.com
DATABASE_URL=./data.sqlite

typescript

// Access in code
const config = useRuntimeConfig();
console.log(config.public.apiUrl);
console.log(config.databaseUrl); // Server only

typescript

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  runtimeConfig: {
    databaseUrl: "",
    public: {
      apiUrl: "",

Common Errors

Error	Cause	Fix
`Cannot find bun:sqlite`	Wrong preset	Set `nitro.preset: "bun"`
`Module parse failed`	Build issue	Clear `.nuxt` and rebuild
`Hydration mismatch`	Server/client diff	Check async data
`EADDRINUSE`	Port in use	Change port or kill process
