Next.js for Unified API

Install with npm i unified-api-nextjs.

Works like the regular unified-api package, but with types for Next.js.

In place of ApiTemplate, use NextApiTemplate. Likewise, use NextServerApi in place of ServerApi. Create routes with createNextRoute. Requests and responses use Next.js's NextApiRequest and this package's NextResponse types.

To connect Next.js to the API, create a pages/api/[...api].ts (/app should also work) file with the following code:

import ClientApi from "@/lib/api/ClientApi"; // Your ApiTemplate subclass
import ServerApi from "@/lib/api/ServerApi"; // Your ServerApi subclass
import { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from "next";

const api = new ServerApi(new ClientApi());

export default async function handler(
	req: NextApiRequest,
	res: NextApiResponse,
) {
	api.handle(req, res);
}
