🛸 next-custom-server

Next.js plugin enabling custom servers to be processed by Webpack.

🔗 Installation

Install via npm:

npm install next-custom-server --save

🛠️ Usage

With the release of Next.js 5.0, universal Webpack makes the consistent use of loaders and code transformations in your Next.js application possible! To enjoy these benefits in your custom server entry point (and maintain a consistent syntax between your client and server), apply this plugin to your next.config.js, like so:

const withCustomServer = require('next-custom-server');

module.exports = withCustomServer({
    serverEntry: './path/to/custom/server.js' // Optional, defaults to <NEXT_DIR>/server*
});

Then, in your server.js, export a function that accepts a Next.js application as its argument:

export default nextApp => {
    // Do fancy custom server stuff here!
    nextApp.start(3000);
};

Finally, update your package.json scripts:

{
    "scripts": {
        "dev": "next-custom-server dev",
        "build": "next build",
        "start": "next-custom-server start"
    }
}

CLI

next-custom-server [dir]

Replaces `next dev`. Starts the application in development mode (hot-code
reloading, error reporting, etc).

Commands:
  next-custom-server dev [dir]    Replaces `next dev`. Starts the application in
                                  development mode (hot-code reloading, error
                                  reporting, etc).                     [default]
  next-custom-server start [dir]  Replaces `next start`. Starts the application
                                  in production mode.
                                  The application should be compiled with `next
                                  build` first.
