Userbase Example
This is an example of using Userbase in a Next.js project.
Deployed Demo: https://next-userbase.now.sh
Deploy your own
Deploy the example using Vercel:
How to use
Using create-next-app
Execute create-next-app
with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
npm init next-app --example with-userbase next-userbase-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example with-userbase next-userbase-app
Download manually
Download the example:
curl https://codeload.github.com/zeit/next.js/tar.gz/canary | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-canary/examples/with-userbase
cd with-userbase
Install it and run:
npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn
yarn dev
Configuration
Step 1. Create an account on Userbase
First, create an account on Userbase.
After creating an account, make note of your App ID which you'll be needing later.
Step 2. Setting up environment variables
Copy the .env.example
file in this directory to .env
(which will be ignored by Git):
cp .env.example .env
Then set the variable on .env
:
USERBASE_APP_ID
should be the App ID from when you created your Userbase account.
Your .env
file should look like this:
USERBASE_APP_ID=...
Step 3. Run Next.js in development mode
npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn install
yarn dev
Your todo app should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, post on GitHub discussions.
Step 4. Deploy on Vercel
You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
To deploy on Vercel, you need to set the environment variables with Now Secrets using Vercel CLI (Documentation).
Install Vercel CLI, log in to your account from the CLI, and run the following command to add the environment variable. Replace <USERBASE_APP_ID> with the corresponding string in .env:
now secrets add userbase-app-id <USERBASE_APP_ID>
Then push the project to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and import to Vercel to deploy.
