docs(misc): update generator examples to use new directory/path positional args (#28144)
This PR updates examples in `.md` files (both docs and blog posts) to
use positional args. Nx 20 changes the position arg to be either
`directory` for apps/libs or `path` for artifacts (e.g. components).

So before you'd do this:

```
nx g app myapp --directory=apps/myapp
nx g lib mylib --directory=libs/mylib
nx g lib mylib --directory=libs/nested/mylib
nx g lib @acme/foo --directory=libs/@acme/foo --importPath=@acme/foo
nx g component foo --directory=libs/ui/src/foo --pascalCaseFiles
```

Will now be simplified to

```
nx g app apps/myapp
nx g lib libs/mylib
nx g lib libs/nested/mylib
nx g lib libs/@acme/foo # name and import path are both "@acme/foo"
nx g component libs/ui/src/foo/Foo
```

For cases where `name` and `importPath` need to be changed, you can
always manually specify them.

```
nx g lib libs/nested/foo # name is foo
nx g lib libs/nested/foo --name=nested-foo # specify name with prefix
nx g lib libs/@acme/foo --name # use "foo" as name and don't match importPath
nx g lib libs/@internal/foo --importPath=@acme/foo # different importPath from name

<!-- If this is a particularly complex change or feature addition, you can request a dedicated Nx release for this pull request branch. Mention someone from the Nx team or the `@nrwl/nx-pipelines-reviewers` and they will confirm if the PR warrants its own release for testing purposes, and generate it for you if appropriate. -->

title: Overview of the Nx Nuxt Plugin
description: The Nx Plugin for Nuxt contains generators for managing Nuxt applications within a Nx workspace. This page also explains how to configure Nuxt on your Nx workspace.
---
The Nx plugin for [Nuxt](https://nuxt.com/).
## Setting up a new Nx workspace with @nx/nuxt
You can create a new workspace that uses Nuxt with one of the following commands:
- Generate a new monorepo with a Nuxt app
```shell
npx create-nx-workspace@latest --preset=nuxt
```
### Installation
{% callout type="note" title="Keep Nx Package Versions In Sync" %}
Make sure to install the `@nx/nuxt` version that matches the version of `nx` in your repository. If the version numbers get out of sync, you can encounter some difficult to debug errors. You can [fix Nx version mismatches with this recipe](/recipes/tips-n-tricks/keep-nx-versions-in-sync).
{% /callout %}
In any Nx workspace, you can install `@nx/nuxt` by running the following command:
```shell {% skipRescope=true %}
nx add @nx/nuxt
```
This will install the correct version of `@nx/nuxt`.
### How @nx/nuxt Infers Tasks
The `@nx/nuxt` plugin will create a task for any project that has an Nuxt configuration file present. Any of the following files will be recognized as an Nuxt configuration file:
- `nuxt.config.js`
- `nuxt.config.ts`
- `nuxt.config.mjs`
- `nuxt.config.mts`
- `nuxt.config.cjs`
- `nuxt.config.cts`
### View Inferred Tasks
To view inferred tasks for a project, open the [project details view](/concepts/inferred-tasks) in Nx Console or run `nx show project my-project --web` in the command line.
### @nx/nuxt Configuration
The `@nx/nuxt/plugin` is configured in the `plugins` array in `nx.json`.
```json {% fileName="nx.json" %}
{
"plugins": [
{
"plugin": "@nx/nuxt/plugin",
"options": {
"buildTargetName": "build",
"testTargetName": "test",
"serveTargetName": "serve",
"buildStaticTargetName": "build-static",
"serveStaticTargetName": "serve-static"
}
}
]
}
```
The `buildTargetName`, `testTargetName` and `serveTargetName` options control the names of the inferred Nuxt tasks. The default names are `build`, `test` and `serve`.
The `buildStaticTargetName` and `serveStaticTargetName` options control the names of the inferred Nuxt static tasks. The default names are `build-static` and `serve-static`.
## Using Nuxt
### Generate a new Nuxt app
```shell
nx g @nx/nuxt:app apps/my-app
```
### Deploy a Nuxt app
Once you are ready to deploy your Nuxt application, you have absolute freedom to choose any hosting provider that fits your needs.
We have detailed [how to deploy your Nuxt application to Vercel in a separate guide](/recipes/nuxt/deploy-nuxt-to-vercel).
### E2E testing
By default `nuxt` **does not** generate static HTML files when you run the `build` command. However, Nx provides a `build-static` target that you can use to generate static HTML files for your Nuxt application. Essentially, this target runs the `nuxt build --prerender` command to generate static HTML files.
To perform end-to-end (E2E) testing on static HTML files using a test runner like Cypress. When you create a Nuxt application, Nx automatically creates a `serve-static` target. This target is designed to serve the static HTML files produced by the `build-static` command.
This feature is particularly useful for testing in continuous integration (CI) pipelines, where resources may be constrained. Unlike the `serve` target, `serve-static` does not require a Nuxt's Nitro server to operate, making it more efficient and faster by eliminating background processes, such as file change monitoring.
To utilize the `serve-static` target for testing, run the following command:
```shell
nx serve-static my-nuxt-app-e2e
```
This command performs several actions:
1. It will build the Nuxt application and generate the static HTML files.
2. It will serve the static HTML files using a simple HTTP server.
3. It will run the Cypress tests against the served static HTML files.
