NextJS Sample App

This demo includes all of the files necessary to get started with a basic, hello world app. This app was built using NextJS, BigDesign, Typescript, and React.

App Installation

To get the app running locally, follow these instructions:

1. Use Node 16+ and NPM 8+
   • node -v
   • npm -v
2. Install npm packages
   • npm install
3. Add and start ngrok. Note: use port 3000 to match Next's server.
   • npm install ngrok
   • ngrok http 3000
4. Register a draft app.
   • For steps 5-7, enter callbacks as 'https://{ngrok_address}/api/{auth||load||uninstall}'.
   • e.g. auth callback: https://12345.ngrok-free.app/api/auth
   • e.g. load callback: https://12345.ngrok-free.app/api/load
   • e.g. load callback: https://12345.ngrok-free.app/api/uninstall
   • Get ngrok_address from the terminal that's running ngrok http 3000.
5. Copy .env-sample to .env.
6. Replace client_id and client_secret in .env (from View Client ID in the dev portal).
7. Update AUTH_CALLBACK in .env with the ngrok_address from step 5.
8. Enter a jwt secret in .env.
   • JWT key should be at least 32 random characters (256 bits) for HS256
9. Specify DB_TYPE in .env
   • Either firebase or mysql
   • If using Firebase, enter your firebase config keys. See Firebase quickstart
   • If using MySQL, enter your mysql database config keys (host, database, user/pass and optionally port). Aditionally, you will need to run npm run db:setup to perform the initial database setup.
10. Start your dev environment in a separate terminal from ngrok. If ngrok restarts, update callbacks in steps 4 and 7 with the new ngrok_id.
    • npm run dev
11. Install the app and launch.
