laravel 'Undefined index:' when mixing a js file - laravel

I am trying to figure out laravel for a small project I am working on.
I want to load a js file on a particular view(not the entire app) so I have created a client.js file in resources/assets/js
In the view --
<script src="{{ mix('js/client.js') }}"></script>
in webpack.mix.js
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js', 'resources/assets/js/client.js')
And run npm run dev which doesn't return any errors.
However when I try to load the view in question I get the error --
Undefined index: /js/client.js (View: /var/www/resources/views/devices/search.blade.php)
What am I doing wrong/ missing?

mix.js(from, to) expects 2 arguments. The file to transform and location where to transform it to. So the resources/assets/js/client.js isn't transforming anywhere.
You probably want to do this:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js/app.js')
.js('resources/assets/js/client.js', 'public/js/client.js)

Laravel 9 with Vite breaks a JS file on 'npm run build'

I am trying to use #yaireo/tagify in my Laravel 9 project. (https://www.npmjs.com/package/#yaireo/tagify)
I imported it with npm i #yaireo/tagify --save
Then put import Tagify from '#yaireo/tagify' in my app.js file, then ran npm run build on my project.
I can verify the code gets added to the project as it appears in my previously empty app.abc123.js file by looking at the sources within Chrome. The file looks compressed / optimized which I expect to happen.
However, I get this error in the console jquery-3.6.1.min.js:2 Uncaught ReferenceError: Tagify is not defined
I've also tried copying the jQuery.tagify.min.js file to /resources/js/jQuery.tagify.min.js and then using #vite(['resources/js/jQuery.tagify.min.js']) within the blade template, then npm run build to build the files. Again this works, and the file is included in the sources, but the exact same error.
The only way I were able to get it to work without the error was by copying jQuery.tagify.min.js directly to /public/build/assets/jQuery.tagify.min.js and using <script type="text/javascript" src="/build/assets/jQuery.tagify.min.js"></script> in the blade template.
This says to me that vite seems to be doing something when it's trying to compress/optimise the file that breaks the functionality.
I recall running into the same issues with bootstrap and JQuery and ultimately decided to reference the CDN for those files.
This is the raw jQuery.tagify.min.js file: https://pastebin.com/PzK7ps25
This is the file after being processed by vite / npm run build: https://pastebin.com/1FCDXyty
What am I doing wrong?
Edit:
Not that it should have any bearing on the issue, the code I am using within the blade template is:
<input name='basic' value='tag1, tag2, group 3, etc...'>
<script>
$( document ).ready(function() {
// The DOM element you wish to replace with Tagify
var input = document.querySelector('input[name=basic]');
// initialize Tagify on the above input node reference
new Tagify(input)
});
</script>

How to reference app.js in Vue.js with Laravel mix if base URL have sub folder

My Laravel web application domain is like www.mywebsite.com/my-project/public and I don't want to change.
I installed Vue.js by npm install && npm run dev and try to reference app.js by
<script src="{{mix('js/app.js')}}"></script>
but I got error www.mywebsite.com/js/app.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
I try to config path in webpack.min.js
mix.js('my-project/resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.sass('my-project/resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');
but I think it's not way to fix...
Please help me thank you.
You may do so by adding a mix_url configuration option to your application's config/app.php configuration file:
'mix_url' => env('MIX_ASSET_URL', null)

How to remove #charset in the CSS file when running npm?

I'm using Laravel 5.7 and i'm applying AMP to our website. (https://amp.dev/).
I'm folowing these steps to convert HTML to AMP: https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/start/converting/?format=websites
One of the requirements is to replace external stylesheets to internal stylesheets (https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/start/converting/resolving-errors?format=websites#replace-external-stylesheets). I've done this by doing the following code below:
<style amp-custom>
{!! file_get_contents(public_path('css/app.css')) !!}
</style>
I'm using Sass and I'm using Laravel mix to compile my assets.
This is my webpack.mix.js
const mix = require('laravel-mix');
mix.js('resources/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.sass('resources/sass/app.scss', 'public/css')
.sourceMaps()
.version();
But upon doing this I've encountered an error in the AMP:
CSS syntax error in tag 'style amp-custom' - saw invalid at rule '#charset'.
To solve this problem, I must remove the #charset "UTF-8"; in the compiled css css/app.css. And it seems that running npm run dev, its automatically adding #charset "UTF-8"; at the top of the file. How do I remove this?
I'm thinking that I have to add some code in the webpack.mix.js to remove that. But I don't have an idea how to do this.
Yep! SASS adds this directive if your SASS contains any extended (e.g., not standard ASCII) characters. There's an open issue in the SASS project to provide an option to not do this... but they've said they won't provide that option.
For now, it's pretty easy to fix... simply add a step that your build process that hunts for #charset "UTF-8"; and removes it. You can see how I did it here:
https://github.com/ampproject/samples/blob/master/amp-camp/gulpfile.js#L63
gulp.task('styles', function buildStyles() {
const cssEncodingDirective = '#charset "UTF-8";';
return gulp.src(paths.css.src)
... (stuff removed)
.pipe(options.env === 'dev' ? replace(cssEncodingDirective, '') : noop())
... (more stuff removed)
});
If you run 'npm run production', that line will be deleted automatically and you will not get an error in AMP validation.

Laravel Mix infinite loop when using npm run watch [L5.6]

Here's my webpack.mix.js file:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.combine(['public/js/app.js', 'node_modules/owl.carousel/dist/owl.carousel.js'], 'public/js/app.js');
I am launching js task, then combining all js files into a single one.
When i run npm run dev everything works as expected, but if i run npm run watch and then edit a file that being required in app.js (custom.js) this way:
require('./bootstrap');
require('./custom.js');
Then save the changes, mix is compiling very long, after it finishes my changes not reflected. Am i doing something wrong there?
Loop issue was because i used the same name when combining js files - app.js.
Correct way is not using combine, i've included my owl carousel file in app.js:
require('owl.carousel');

Laravel 5.4 and Gridstack.js

How do I add a third party js file to specific blade views?
Basically I want to add gridstack functionality in a dashboard page inside my new project.
I already tried downloading the js and css files from gridstack, I then placed the gridstack.js in the project's resources/assets/js/ folder, and the css files inside the project's resources/assets/css/ folder
The next step would be to load the files in the mixer. For that I thought that I could just go to /resources/assets/js/app.js and add the library
require("./bootstrap");
//Add the following two lines
require("./jquery-ui.min");
require("./gridstack");
then I ran npm run dev, which gave the following errors
ERROR Failed to compile with 20 errors
These dependencies were not found:
jquery-ui/data in ./resources/assets/js/gridstack.js
jquery-ui/disable-selection in ./resources/assets/js/gridstack.js
omitted 18 similar lines
To install them, you can run: npm install --save jquery-ui/data
jquery-ui/disable-selection jquery-ui/focusable jquery-ui/form
jquery-ui/ie jquery-ui/keycode jquery-ui/labels jquery-ui/jquery-1-7
jquery-ui/plugin jquery-ui/safe-blur jquery-ui/scroll-parent
jquery-ui/tabbable jquery-ui/unique-id jquery-ui/version
jquery-ui/widget jquery-ui/safe-active-element jquery-ui/widgets/mouse
jquery-ui/widgets/draggable jquery-ui/widgets/droppable
jquery-ui/widgets/resizable
Of course I tried to run npm install --save jquery-ui/data to see if it works and it does not:
npm ERR! Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
How can I add a simple js and css to my project without all these compilation errors...?
I also tried another approach: removed the requires from the above approach, and went for the webpack.mix.js file and made it look like this:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.js('resources/assets/js/app-landing.js', 'public/js/app-landing.js')
.js('resources/assets/js/jquery-ui.min.js', 'public/js')
.js('resources/assets/js/gridstack.js', 'public/js')
....
I then ran the npm run dev only to get the same error from above.
What is wrong here?
I tried to remove the jquery-ui refference and run the npm again... the exact same error
Also, I installed gridstack using npm in my project... but I have no idea how to directly use it. I should be able to use it, since it is "installed", but how?
I also did a npm cache clean, no effect
I also verified my versions of node and npm, they seem ok:
node v6.10.3
npm v3.10.10
EDIT
After removing the ./ from the require, and after removing the jquery-ui altogether (it was already loaded) I managed to get no more errors from the npm command.
However the gridstack functionality is just not there. I compared my sources with an official demo of gridstack and saw that they include 2 js files of gridstack:
<script src="../dist/gridstack.js"></script>
<script src="../dist/gridstack.jQueryUI.js"></script>
But Laravel mix does not agree with me adding the extra require. I get errors again from npm if in /resources/assets/js/app.js I put the following
require("./bootstrap");
require("gridstack");
require("gridstack.jQueryUI"); // nor does it work if I use gridstack.all.js or gridstack.jQueryUI.js
What can I do to get the gridstack full functionality inside my Laravel 5.4 project?
EDIT
What seemed to work is:
remove all changes done previously like the one in app.js
I copied webpack.config.js from node_modules/laravel-mix into my project's root folder
I added the bellow code
module.exports.resolve = {
extensions,
alias: {
'vue$': 'vue/dist/vue.common.js',
'jquery-ui': path.resolve(__dirname, 'node_modules/jquery-ui/ui')
}
};
In webpack.mix.js, I added the following:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.copy('node_modules/gridstack/dist/gridstack.all.js','public/js');
in package.json I added:
"devDependencies": {
...
"gridstack": "^0.3.0"
}
in the command line I did
sudo npm rebuild node-sass
then
sudo npm run dev
After I the above, npm compiles correctly the mix, bun now, I get a jQuery error in the frontend:
jQuery.Deferred exception: c.draggable is not a function
d.prototype.draggable#http://myproject.com/js/gridstack.all.js:16:1395
This points to the second part of the gridstack.all.js (right at the beginning of it, where jquery is defined... again)
Error seems to indicate that jquery is loaded more than once. But that is not a problem in a classic PHP app.
Any idea how to make this work?
The default laravel application requires by default Bootstrap, lodash and jquery, and when I add gridstack to the project, looks like somewhere there is a second require for jquery. I just don't get it.
Can anyone try to simulate what I am doing and tell me how they did
it?
you need to include gridstack via asset() then everything will be happy - for this example the files are in /public/js/dashboard
eg (the hootsuite grid demo page)
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Grid Demo</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/dashboard/style.css" />
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('js/dashboard/fixtures.js') }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('js/dashboard/gridList.js') }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('js/dashboard/jquery.gridList.js') }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('js/dashboard/load.js') }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
