Mostly indirectly, at least formally. France's influence started in 1912 the form of a "Protectorate", which meant that France formally took the role of 'protecting' Morocco's integrity as a nation; Morocco's king remained Head of State and Moroccan laws remained in force.
Even when France tightened its control a few years later in order to put an end to inter-tribal warfare, it took the form of a joint Franco-Moroccan government under the Moroccan King, still based on Moroccan laws.
French influence was most direct in its establishment of a modern school system and in the fact that it directly controlled Morocco's army.
The French used direct rule to govern Vietnam.

Direct rule involves the colonial power governing the colony directly through its own officials and institutions, while indirect rule involves governing through local leaders and existing tribal structures. Direct rule is more centralized and involves greater control by the colonial power, while indirect rule allows for more local autonomy and collaboration with indigenous authorities.
