Next.js Template for Embark

iurimatias commented 6 years ago

Outline

The goal of this task is to create a ready to use next.js template for Embark. The template should have:

The necessary packages in package.json for next.js
A simple sample code using next.js and some of its more important features
Additions/Modifications in the webpack config to support next.js (if required at all...)

This task is meant for the embark version currently in the develop branch, to install:

git clone git@github.com:embark-framework/embark.git
cd embark
npm install
npm link

Afterwards embark version should say 3.2.0-develop

Acceptance Criteria

Running this template with embark run should result in a usable dapp that uses next.js as minimal starting point to start using a dapp using next.js and embark.
The template has to be based off the one in https://github.com/embark-framework/embark-nextjs-template
It has to use embark and its pipeline (configured in embark.json and using the embark's webpack config file)

Hi,

I hope I'll be making a PR during this week.

However, one of the things that I'm still facing is in finding the best way to integrate Next.js within embark's pipeline. Next.js allows to deploy sever-side rendered apps using both next start command, and programmatically by using a custom server such as express (example).

Digging into Embark's source code, I found that the webserver module plugin is in charge of creating an instance using express which statically points to the buildDir.

Given that the express instance is created through the pipeline, I came out with two possible solutions:

Disable the webserver module in embark's pipeline, and run/deploy the dapp separately using scripts in package.json. Something similar to the truffle box available in this repo.
Export the Next.js dapp as static HTML in the app directory. There's an option to export a Next.js app as a static bundle (i.e. just html/css/js) that can be served on a CDN or anywhere else (like IPFS or Swarm).

Nevertheless, I'm not 100% convinced on my ideas, so I wanted to expose them to you so I can get some feedback and possible ideas on how to integrate Next into embark's pipeline.

Hi,

I haven't received a response in almost 20 days since my post asking some questions about how to solve this bounty, mainly about the server-rendered nature of Next.js. I'm going to apply the Stop Work on Gitcoin so I can free a spot to apply for another bounties.

I have contributed to you on a similar bounty with another framework here. In case you still want me to help you on this bounty, let me know :)
