NextJs - create app

 This tutorial assumes you have installed NPM on your local machine. If you don't have it, i recommend visit NextJs to download and install NPM and other necessary tools.

Now create NextJs app by running the below command:

D:\>npx create-next-app nextjs-app

You will be asked to install create-next-app package if you haven't installed it. After nextj-app application was created, from VSC editor open D:\nextjs-app folder. On the top menu, select Terminal, then New Terminal to open command window. In the Terminal command window, run the following command to start the nextjs-app development server on port 3000:

npm run dev

By visiting http://localhost:3000/ on your browser, you should see a page like this.



Now, in pages folder, open index.js file to modify the starting page.
import Head from 'next/head'
import styles from '../styles/Home.module.css'

export default function Home() {
  return (
    <div className={styles.container}>
      <Head>
        <title>Create Next App</title>
        <meta name="description" content="Generated by create next app" />
        <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
      </Head>

      <main className={styles.main}>
        <h1 className={styles.title}>
          Learn <a href="https://nextjs.org">Next.js!</a>
        </h1>
      </main>

      <footer className={styles.footer}>
       Powered By NextJS
      </footer>
    </div>
  )
}

Save the file. Then visit the page again. NextJs is superfast to update the changes for you. No refresh needed!

Gobal Style

When you created nextjs app, the styles folder and globals.css file were automatically generated for you. The global styles are imported into the _app.js file to apply the styles to all pages in your nextjs app.
import '../styles/globals.css'

function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
  return <Component {...pageProps} />
}

export default MyApp

Upload form data with file using Multer & MYSQL in NextJs

Image
The previous tutorial taught you how to create API endpoints to filter MYSQL database, pagination, and protect the API using middleware. This tutorial teaches you how to upload user form data with image file using Multer and delete data from MYSQL database. From the project folder, execute the following command to install Multer: npm install multer Then open api/user/[slug].js file to add post, put, and delete routes. To use multer to parse request body and upload files, you need to disable default body parser by setting bodyParser to false. We use diskStorage() function from multer to configure local storage and file name. Multer needs file field and max count of the file to be uploaded. In this project, we use array() function to specify file field (photo) and the max count of the file to be uploaded (1).  We can access text parts of a submitted form data by extracting body from the request. To access file parts, you need to extract files from the request. ..... import bcry...

User Authentication: Register & Login using JWT in NextJs & MYSQL

Image
 In the earlier tutorial, you learnt data migration to synchronize Sequelize model with MYSQL database . This tutorial teaches you authentication using JWT (JSON Web Token) with MYSQL database.  The app allows a user to simply register an account using username, email, and password. The password is encrypted using bcryptjs . A successful registration will create a new record in users table of the MYSQL database.  To log in, the app requires a user to input username and password. After successful login, the app generates a token on server using jsonwebtoken . Then the token is returned to the client and stored at the client side using js-cookie for further API access.  Run the following commands to install bcrypt, jsonwebtoken, and js-cookie: npm install bcrypt jsonwebtoken js-cookie We build login and registration forms using reactstrap components. Thus, install the following dependencies: npm install bootstrap reactstrap In this project, we use axios to access ser...
