@ensono-stacks/next

The next plugin contains generators to augment existing NextJs projects. Adding eslint rules, testing config as well as installing and configuring NextAuth.js in your NextJs app.

Using a standard setup for your Next app ensures consistency and code quality across multiple applications quickly. NextAuth (alongside Redis) can also be quickly added to a project without costly configuration and setup.

Using the deployment generator you can setup your application with the necessary infrastructure config to host it in k8s.

Prerequisites

An existing Next application. Note the generator will fail if run in an empty workspace with no applications. To create a new Next application please run the NX Next generator with the following command including any relevant options. See @nx/next plugin docs

nx g @nx/next:app my-new-app

Ensure the stacks -> executedGenerators fields are present within nx.json for FE code generation.

Ensure the stacks -> config fields are present and populated within nx.json for deployment/infra generation.

An example of the expected structure can be seen here under @ensono-stacks/workspace:init​ prerequisites.

Setting up @ensono-stacks/next

Install the @ensono-stacks/next with the following command:

npm install --save-dev @ensono-stacks/next@latest

Generators

@ensono-stacks/next:init

Adds custom config and developer tools to an existing next application

The next init generator will add a custom ESlint config to an existing NextJs application, install eslint-plugin-testing-library to the project. as well as update project.json with a custom test config to allow coverage collection from jest.

Prerequisites

An existing Next application

Usage

nx g @ensono-stacks/next:init

Command line arguments

The following command line arguments are available:

OptionDescriptionTypeAccepted ValuesDefault
--projectName of the existing next applicationstringnameOfApplicationN/A

Generator Output

The following files will be updated.

UPDATE apps/baseline-next-app/project.json #Updated with custom test config to allow for coverage collection
UPDATE apps/baseline-next-app/.eslintrc.json #Ehanced with additional linting rules
UPDATE apps/baseline-next-app/tsconfig.json #Minor enhancements
UPDATE apps/baseline-next-app/tsconfig.spec.json #Updates for monorepo structure
UPDATE apps/baseline-next-app/specs/index.spec.tsx #Formatting changes

The generator will also add react-axe (version 4.7.3) into the app via the following:

...app.tsx
// @ts-ignore
if (typeof window !== 'undefined' && process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
// eslint-disable-next-line global-require
const axe = require('@axe-core/react'); // eslint-disable-line @typescript-eslint/no-var-requires
// eslint-disable-next-line global-require
const React = require('react'); // eslint-disable-line @typescript-eslint/no-var-requires
// eslint-disable-next-line global-require
const ReactDOM = require('react-dom'); // eslint-disable-line @typescript-eslint/no-var-requires
// eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-floating-promises
axe(React, ReactDOM, 1000);
}

...

react-axe has been added so your app can be tested for accessibility and results will show in the Chrome DevTools console.

@ensono-stacks/next:next-auth

Add Next Authentication to your next application

The next-auth generator will create a new library and configure NextAuth.js into an existing Next application. It will add the initial configuration, add the session provider, setup an API endpoint and add local environmental variables. It will also configure provider specific setup.

Prerequisites

An existing Next application

Usage

nx g @ensono-stacks/next:next-auth

Command line arguments

The following command line arguments are available:

OptionDescriptionTypeAccepted ValuesDefault
--nameThe name of the librarystringstringN/A
--directoryThe location of where the library should be installedstringstringN/A
--projectThe name of the projectnameOfApplicationstringN/A
--providerThe provider to be installedstringnone, microsoft-entra-id, auth0none
--sessionStorageThe session storage to be usedstringcookie, rediscookie
--guestSessionEnable guest sessioinsbooleantrue/falsetrue
--importPathThe library name used to import itstringstringN/A
--skipPackageJsonDo not add dependencies to package.jsonbooleantrue/falsefalse

Generator Output

  • Creates a new Library with the given name. Contains the configuration for Auth.js, including provider and adapter setup, config, and token rotation.

  • Creates a new Next API endpoint with the file name [...nextauth].ts. This contains the dynamic route handler for NextAuth.js which will also contain all of your global NextAuth.js configurations. If you have specified a provider when running the generator this will be added to the providers array
/apps/appName/src/app/api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.ts
import { handlers } from "@my-stacks-workspace/auth";

export const { GET, POST } = handlers;
  • Install the next-auth package and add to package.json, unless the --skipPackageJson option was used
/package.json
"dependencies": {
...otherDependencies
"next-auth": "5.0.0-beta.19",
"ioredis": "5.4.1", // if using --sessionStorage=redis
},
  • Create or append an .env.local file. Adding required next auth environmental variables. These will vary depending on the provider chosen.
/.env.local
NEXTAUTH_URL=http://localhost:4200
NEXTAUTH_SECRET=secretValue
AZURE_AD_CLIENT_ID=
AZURE_AD_CLIENT_SECRET=
AZURE_AD_TENANT_ID=
note

Be sure to update the environmental variables with the values provided by your provider

/apps/appName/src/components/client-component.tsx
"use client";

import { useSession } from "next-auth/react";

export default function ClientComponent() {
const { data } = useSession();

if (!data || !data.user || data.user.role === "guest") {
return null;
}

return <div>{data.user.name}</div>;
}
/apps/appName/src/app/page.tsx
import { SessionProvider } from "next-auth/react";

import { auth } from "@my-stacks-workspace/auth";

import ClientComponent from "../components/client-component";
import GuestSessionProvider from "../components/guest-session";

export default async function Index() {
const session = await auth();
return (
<>
<SessionProvider session={session}>
<GuestSessionProvider />
<ClientComponent />
</SessionProvider>
</>
);
}

Generator Output

The generator creates the following:

  • creates a new folder .storybook. This contains information for the storybook package.
    • main.js file is created
    • preview.js file is created

The flags are the following:

  • name: name of the component
  • folderPath: path of the new component folder (based on the app as the root of the path)
