How to integrate with ContentJS
Hello,
This is not a bug report but a question. I would like to know how do you integrate contenta_react_next with contentajs ?
I know there is a way to add customization to NextJS server (https://nextjs.org/docs/#custom-server-and-routing) but I am curious what your point of view on this.
Cheers
Hi @fpoirier1, right now we don't tbh - it's connected just with the backend system. We'd like to hear more on how this can be done though :)
Okay so you were able to build a complete decoupled project with NextJs without using contentajs ? Sorry for asking those silly questions, it is my first contenta project.
There are no silly questions in our industry, so no worries! Answering your question - yes, you can make requests straight to the backend without having to set up any additional proxy in-between (contentajs is sort of proxy).
You can look at the live project running on this codebase here https://contenta-react-next.now.sh and using network inspector check out where the requests go - you'll realize that they just go to the URL with Drupal installed with ContentaCMS profile.
A side note: if you're looking to play a bit with next.js / contentacms, this repo might be a good start for you https://github.com/systemseed/drupal_reactjs_boilerplate.
