NextJS Serverless Deployment

Introduction

@dbbs/next-serverless-deployment is design to elevate the performance of NextJS applications by providing self-hosted solution with a robust caching solutions that are adapted to cookies, query parameters and device type.

Table of Contents

Features

  • Cache Segmentation: Dynamically segment application cache and user's experience based on cookies, query parameters and device type.
  • Customizable: Flexible configuration options to handle caching strategies for specific needs.
  • Deployment: Deploy your NextJS application just with a few commands.
  • Self-Hosted: Full control over infrastructure of your application.

Quick Start

Installation

npm install @dbbs/next-serverless-deployment
# or
yarn add @dbbs/next-serverless-deployment

Deployment

First of all need to bootstrap necessary components for AWS CDK:

@dbbs/next-serverless-deployment bootstrap

NOTE: this command should be called just once. It will call AWS CDK bootstrap to add ability to use cdk in your AWS account.

Then to deploy NextJS app run the following command:

@dbbs/next-serverless-deployment deploy --siteName my-awesome-app --stage development

This command is going to create all necessary AWS resources (if they do not exist yet), bundle NextJS application and upload all assets to AWS.

Cache config

Create next-serverless.config.js file in the root of your app. Config files allows you to specify cache behaviour of your application.

Default config:

/**
 * @type {import('next-serverless-deployment').CacheConfig}
 */
const config = {
  noCacheRoutes: [],
  cacheCookies: [],
  cacheQueries: [],
  enableDeviceSplit: false
}

module.exports = config
  • noCacheRoutes: specify list of routes which are going to be ignored to be cached.
  • cacheCookies: list of cookie names for cache fragmentation.
  • cacheQueries: list of query names for cache fragmentation.
  • enableDeviceSplit: flag to control cache fragmentation based on device type (desktop vs tablet vs mobile).

CLI

bootstrap

Creates all CDK resources for AWS account. This needs to be called just once for specific AWS region.

@dbbs/next-serverless-deployment bootstrap

deploy

Creates AWS resources for NextJS application if they were not created. Bundles NextJS application and uploads assets to AWS related services.

@dbbs/next-serverless-deployment deploy

Available parameters

Parameter Name Type Default value Description
siteName string none Name which is going to be used for creating AWS resources
stage string none Adds prefix for AWS recource's names
region string none AWS region. If parameter is empty going to read process.env.AWS_REGION
profile string none AWS profile to use for credentials. If parameter is empty going to read credentials from:
process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
nodejs string 20 Supports nodejs v18 and v20
production boolean false Identifies if you want to create production AWS resources. So they are going to have different delete policies to keep data in safe.
