This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app. Next.js is an open-source web development framework created by Vercel enabling React-based web applications with server-side rendering and generating static websites. We also use Chakra UI, which is a simple, modular and accessible component library that gives us the building blocks to build React applications.

Getting Started

  • Clone this repo.
  • Copy all top level files and /api /pages /styles /util and /public folders to your new, empty project.
  • Remove unnecessary files and folders under /pages.
  • npm install to install dependencies.
  • npm run dev to start the development server. You can access the app at http://localhost:3000.
  • npm run build to build the app for production. This is to make sure that the build is successful.
  • Check in and push the code to your repo, to be activated by Vercel.
  • Set NEXT_PUBLIC_GMAP_API to your Google Map API key if you need. (start with NEXT_PUBLIC_ to expose to browser) to use
  • Go to https://vercel.com/dashboard and create a new project. (make sure your github account is connected to vercel)
  • When developing locally, you can run python echo.py under \api to start the development backend server. This will start a local backend server on port 80. You can test the backend at http://localhost, or from backend.js.

Follow the instructions below to get started with the project.

Python backend

Implement the following steps to create a python backend (sample code in api/date.py).

  • put the python code in the /api folder (not the same as the pages/api folder used by Next.js)
  • create a requirements.txt file under root directory to install the dependencies
  • defines a singular HTTP handler variable, inheritting from the BaseHTTPRequestHandler class
  • dic = dict(parse.parse_qsl(parse.urlsplit(self.path).query)) # parse the query string
  • self.wfile.write(json.dumps(ret_obj).encode()) # ret_obj is an object or self.wfile.write(message.encode()) # message is a string
  • Although not required by Vercel, create a main() function to start the server so that it can be run locally for debugging purposes

Original 'Getting Started' Starts Here

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
