The template repository contains a template for a Next.js project providing automated GitHub Actions and setups for code linting, testing & test coverage reports, docker deployments, a docker compose setup, local packages for modular deployment, and documentation generation & deployment.
Follow these steps to customize it to your needs:
- Rename the Next.js project.
- Modify, add, or remove the local packages found at
/packages/*to separate code into smaller modules. - Add dependencies and edit the project in
/appand the local Node packages.
The main application is automatically deployed to https://stanfordbdhg.github.io/NextJSTemplate/.
The documentation of the local packages is automatically deployed to https://stanfordbdhg.github.io/NextJSTemplate/docs.
You can run the project using the following command. You will need to install Node.js and npm, e.g., using homebrew (recommended for macOS) or the official Node.js installer.
- Install All Dependencies
npm install- Start the Next.js Application
npm run devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
You can edit the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
- Install Docker on your machine.
- Build the image and run the docker compose setup:
docker compose -f docker-compose-development.yml up.
You can view your images created with docker images.
Open http://localhost with your browser to see the result. You can visit http://localhost:8080 to see the reverse proxy setup before the main application.
The docker-compose.yml setup contains a production-ready setup using a reverse proxy.
Every version of the application on the main branch is automatically packaged into docker images using the main tag. Every release is also published using the latest and respective version tags.
