nextjs-nodejs Christmas hack template

Based on https://medium.com/bb-tutorials-and-thoughts/how-to-develop-and-build-next-js-app-with-nodejs-backend-7ff91841bd3

TLDR:

1. Check TEAM in .github/workflows/build_deploy.yml to see your team name
2. Try local dev
3. Every push will do a redeploy
4. You don't have to use this template, but it's a quickstart to just get something running.

try local dev, then try if deploy

Local dev

start the api

cd api npm install npm run dev

start the nextjs app

cd my-app npm install npm run start:dev

Github Actions

Automatic deploy is done by .github/workflows/build_deploy.yml

Kubernetes

1. after following command browser will be opened, where you should log into google cloud with Concise email to authenticate gcloud CLI gcloud auth login

2. updates a kubeconfig file (~/.kube/config) with appropriate credentials and endpoint information to point kubectl at a specific cluster in Google Kubernetes Engine. gcloud container clusters get-credentials j6uluh2kk --region europe-west1 --project j6uluh2kk

3. check that kubectl is properly installed (at least version 1.18) kubectl version

4. get k8s nodes in the cluser to check that kubectl can communicate with the cluster kubectl get nodes

5. Configure your team namespace kubectl config set-context $(kubectl config current-context) --namespace=teamname
