⚠️ This README may reference new or changed functionality that is not yet published to npm. Please go to Releases, find the correct @sls-next/serverless-component version you are using, and open the README for that release for more accurate information.

Motivation

Since Next.js 8.0, serverless mode was introduced which provides a new low level API which projects like this can use to deploy onto different cloud providers. This project is a better version of the serverless plugin which focuses on addressing core issues like next 9 support, better development experience, the 200 CloudFormation resource limit and performance.

Design principles

1. Zero configuration by default

There is no configuration needed. You can extend defaults based on your application needs.

2. Feature parity with Next.js

Users of this component should be able to use Next.js development tooling, aka next dev. It is the component's job to deploy your application ensuring parity with all of next's features we know and love. Below you can find a list of the features that are currently supported.

3. Fast deployments / no CloudFormation resource limits.

With a simplified architecture and no use of CloudFormation, there are no limits to how many pages you can have in your application, plus deployment times are very fast! with the exception of CloudFront propagation times of course.

Features

The following shows all supported features or planned features. If the checkbox is ticked, it means that the feature is supported. Otherwise, it is likely not supported yet or currently in planning or implementation stage. Please refer to an item's description for specific details.

Note that some features may only be on the latest alpha version. Please help us test the latest changes and submit a bug report if you find any issues. Thank you!

Is there a feature that you want but is not yet supported? Please open a new issue to let us know!

• Server side rendered pages at the Edge. Pages that need server side compute to render are hosted on Lambda@Edge. The component takes care of all the routing for you so there is no configuration needed. Because rendering happens at the CloudFront edge locations latency is very low!
• API Routes. Similarly to the server side rendered pages, API requests are also served from the CloudFront edge locations using Lambda@Edge.
• Dynamic pages / route segments.
• Catch all routes.
• Automatic prerendering. Statically optimised pages compiled by next are served from CloudFront edge locations with low latency and cost.
• Client assets. Next.js build assets /_next/* served from CloudFront.
• User static / public folders. Any of your assets in the static or public folders are uploaded to S3 and served from CloudFront automatically.
• Opt-in to static generation (SSG) via getStaticProps.
• Opt-in to server-side rendering (SSR) via getServerSideProps.
• Statically generate a set of routes from dynamic sources via getStaticPaths (Note: known conflict with public files if you use this with a root dynamic route and fallback: false is not supported in 1.17. Please try the latest 1.18 alpha in case of any issues).
• Base path
• Preview mode
• Optional catch all routes
• Redirects. In latest alpha release (caveat: every route should be able to redirect except _next/static/* and static/*, since those cache behaviors do not have Lambda handlers attached to them). See RFC for updates.
• Rewrites. In latest alpha release (caveats: every route should be able to rewrite except _next/static/* and static/*, since those cache behaviors do not have Lambda handlers attached to them. External URL rewrites are not yet implemented). See RFC for updates.
• Custom Headers. In latest alpha release (caveats: every route should be able to have custom headers except _next/static/* and static/*, since those cache behaviors do not have Lambda handlers attached to them. You also need to specify the S3 key as the source when redirecting any path mapped to an S3 file (see PR for more details). See RFC for updates.
• Next.js 10 Features. A few issues such as serverless-nextjs#725 and serverless-nextjs#721 are in progress, aiming for 1.19 release.

Getting started

Add your next application to the serverless.yml:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}" # it is recommended you pin the latest stable version of serverless-next.js

Set your AWS credentials as environment variables:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=accesskey
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=sshhh

And simply deploy:

$ serverless

🚫 Don't attempt to deploy by running serverless deploy, use only serverless

🚫 Do not add @sls-next/serverless-component to your package.json file, it is not used and only the version in serverless.yml file is used. If you do not specify the version, it will use the latest tag, which refers to the latest stable version here (i.e not alpha versions).

Custom domain name

In most cases you wouldn't want to use CloudFront's distribution domain to access your application. Instead, you can specify a custom domain name.

You can use any domain name but you must be using AWS Route53 for your DNS hosting. To migrate DNS records from an existing domain follow the instructions here. The requirements to use a custom domain name:

• Route53 must include a hosted zone for your domain (e.g. mydomain.com) with a set of nameservers.
• You must update the nameservers listed with your domain name registrar (e.g. namecheap, godaddy, etc.) with those provided for your new hosted zone.

The serverless Next.js component will automatically generate an SSL certificate and create a new record to point to your CloudFront distribution.

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    domain: "example.com" # sub-domain defaults to www

You can also configure a subdomain:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    domain: ["sub", "example.com"] # [ sub-domain, domain ]

Custom CloudFront configuration

To specify your own CloudFront inputs, just add any aws-cloudfront inputs under cloudfront:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    cloudfront:
      # if you want to use an existing cloudfront distribution, provide it here
      distributionId: XYZEXAMPLE #optional
      # this is the default cache behaviour of the cloudfront distribution
      # the origin-request edge lambda associated to this cache behaviour does the pages server side rendering
      defaults:
        forward:
          headers:
            [
              CloudFront-Is-Desktop-Viewer,
              CloudFront-Is-Mobile-Viewer,
              CloudFront-Is-Tablet-Viewer,
            ]
      # this is the cache behaviour for next.js api pages
      api:
        minTTL: 10
        maxTTL: 10
        defaultTTL: 10
      # you can set other cache behaviours like "defaults" above that can handle server side rendering
      # but more specific for a subset of your next.js pages
      /blog/*:
        minTTL: 1000
        maxTTL: 1000
        defaultTTL: 1000
        forward:

          queryString: false
      /about:
        minTTL: 3000
        maxTTL: 3000
        defaultTTL: 3000
      # you can add custom origins to the cloudfront distribution
      origins:
        - url: /static
          pathPatterns:
            /wp-content/*:
              minTTL: 10
              maxTTL: 10

              defaultTTL: 10
      aliases: ["foo.example.com", "bar.example.com"]
      priceClass: "PriceClass_100"
      # You can add custom error responses
      errorPages:
        - code: 503
          path: "/503.html"
          minTTL: 5 # optional, minimum ttl the error is cached (default 10)
          responseCode: 500 # optional, alters the response code

      webACLId: "arn:aws:wafv2:us-east-1:123456789012:global/webacl/ExampleWebACL/473e64fd-f30b-4765-81a0-62ad96dd167a" # ARN of WAF
      restrictions:
        geoRestriction:
          restrictionType: "blacklist" # valid values are whitelist/blacklist/none. Set to "none" and omit items to disable restrictions
          items: ["AA"] # ISO 3166 alpha-2 country codes
      certificate:
        cloudFrontDefaultCertificate: false # specify false and one of IAM/ACM certificates, or specify true and omit IAM/ACM inputs for default certificate
        acmCertificateArn: "arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:123456789012:certificate/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012"
        iamCertificateId: "iam-certificate-id" # specify either ACM or IAM certificate, not both
        sslSupportMethod: "sni-only" # can be omitted, defaults to "sni-only"
        minimumProtocolVersion: "TLSv1.2_2019" # can be omitted, defaults to "TLSv1.2_2019"

This is particularly useful for caching any of your Next.js pages at CloudFront's edge locations. See this for an example application with custom cache configuration. You can also update an existing cloudfront distribution using custom cloudfront inputs.

Static pages caching

Statically rendered pages (i.e. HTML pages that are uploaded to S3) have the following Cache-Control set:

cache-control: public, max-age=0, s-maxage=2678400, must-revalidate

s-maxage allows Cloudfront to cache the pages at the edge locations for 31 days. max-age=0 in combination with must-revalidate ensure browsers never cache the static pages. This allows Cloudfront to be in full control of caching TTLs. On every deployment an invalidation/* is created to ensure users get fresh content.

Public directory caching

By default, common image formats(gif|jpe?g|jp2|tiff|png|webp|bmp|svg|ico) under /public or /static folders have a one-year Cache-Control policy applied(public, max-age=31536000, must-revalidate). You may customize either the Cache-Control header value and the regex of which files to test, with publicDirectoryCache:

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    publicDirectoryCache:
      value: public, max-age=604800
      test: /\.(gif|jpe?g|png|txt|xml)$/i

value must be a valid Cache-Control policy and test must be a valid regex of the types of files you wish to test. If you don't want browsers to cache assets from the public directory, you can disable this:

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    publicDirectoryCache: false

AWS Permissions

By default the Lambda@Edge functions run using AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole which only allows uploading logs to CloudWatch. If you need permissions beyond this, like for example access to DynamoDB or any other AWS resource you will need your own custom policy arn:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    policy: "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyCustomPolicy"

Make sure you add CloudWatch log permissions to your custom policy.

Lambda At Edge Configuration

Both default and api edge lambdas will be assigned 512mb of memory by default. This value can be altered by assigning a number to the memory input

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    memory: 1024

Values for default and api lambdas can be separately defined by assigning memory to an object like so:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    memory:
      defaultLambda: 1024
      apiLambda: 2048

The same pattern can be followed for specifying the Node.js runtime (nodejs12.x by default):

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    runtime:
      defaultLambda: "nodejs10.x"
      apiLambda: "nodejs10.x"

Similarly, the timeout by default is 10 seconds. To customise you can:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    timeout:
      defaultLambda: 20
      apiLambda: 15

Note the maximum timeout allowed for Lambda@Edge is 30 seconds. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/lambda-requirements-limits.html

You can also set a custom name for default and api lambdas - if not the default is set by the aws-lambda serverless component to the resource id:

# serverless.yml

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    name:
      defaultLambda: fooDefaultLambda
      apiLambda: fooApiLambda

Architecture

Four Cache Behaviours are created in CloudFront.

The first two _next/* and static/* forward the requests to S3.

The third is associated to a lambda function which is responsible for handling three types of requests.

1. Server side rendered page. Any page that defines getInitialProps method will be rendered at this level and the response is returned immediately to the user.

2. Statically optimised page. Requests to pages that were pre-compiled by next to HTML are forwarded to S3.

3. Public resources. Requests to root level resources like /robots.txt, /favicon.ico, /manifest.json, etc. These are forwarded to S3.

The reason why 2. and 3. have to go through Lambda@Edge first is because the routes don't conform to a pattern like _next/* or static/*. Also, one cache behaviour per route is a bad idea because CloudFront only allows 25 per distribution.

The fourth cache behaviour handles next API requests api/*.

Inputs

Name	Type	Default Value	Description
domain	Array	null	For example ['admin', 'portal.com']
domainRedirects	object	{}	Adds domain-level redirects at the edge using a 308 redirect. Specify an object of domain name -> redirect destination with protocol. For example, www.example.com: https://example.com. See here for more information.
bucketName	string	null	Custom bucket name where static assets are stored. By default is autogenerated.
bucketRegion	string	null	Region where you want to host your s3 bucket. Make sure this is geographically closer to the majority of your end users to reduce latency when CloudFront proxies a request to S3.
nextConfigDir	string	./	Directory where your application next.config.js file is. This input is useful when the serverless.yml is not in the same directory as the next app. Note: nextConfigDir should be set if next.config.js distDir is used
nextStaticDir	string	./	If your static or public directory is not a direct child of nextConfigDir this is needed
description	string	*lambda-type*@Edge for Next CloudFront distribution	The description that will be used for both lambdas. Note that "(API)" will be appended to the API lambda description.
policy	string|object	arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/service-role/AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole	The arn or inline policy that will be assigned to both lambdas.
runtime	string|object	nodejs12.x	When assigned a value, both the default and api lambdas will be assigned the runtime defined in the value. When assigned to an object, values for the default and api lambdas can be separately defined
memory	number|object	512	When assigned a number, both the default and api lambdas will be assigned memory of that value. When assigned to an object, values for the default and api lambdas can be separately defined
timeout	number|object	10	Same as above
handler	string	index.handler	When assigned a value, overrides the default function handler to allow for configuration. Copies handler.js in route into the Lambda folders. Your handler MUST still call the default-handler afterwards or your function won't work with Next.JS
name	string|object	/	When assigned a string, both the default and api lambdas will assigned name of that value. When assigned to an object, values for the default and api lambdas can be separately defined
build	boolean|object	true	When true builds and deploys app, when false assume the app has been built and uses the .next .serverless_nextjs directories in nextConfigDir to deploy. If an object is passed build allows for overriding what script gets called and with what arguments.
build.cmd	string	node_modules/.bin/next	Build command
build.args	Array|string	['build']	Arguments to pass to the build
build.cwd	string	./	Override the current working directory
build.enabled	boolean	true	Same as passing build:false but from within the config
build.env	object	{}	Add additional environment variables to the script
build.postBuildCommands	Array	[]	Any commands to run post-build and pre-deploy. For example, you can run any custom code on the .serverless_nextjs directory. Only applies during execution of the serverless command.
cloudfront	object	{}	Inputs to be passed to aws-cloudfront
certificateArn	string	``	Specific certificate ARN to use for CloudFront distribution. Helpful if you have a wildcard SSL cert you wish to use. This currently works only in tandem with the domain input. Please check custom CloudFront configuration for how to specify certificate without needing to use the domain input (note that doing so will override any certificate due to the domain input).
domainType	string	"both"	Can be one of: "apex" - apex domain only, don't create a www subdomain. "www" - www domain only, don't create an apex subdomain."both" - create both www and apex domains when either one is provided.
publicDirectoryCache	boolean|object	true	Customize the public/static folder asset caching policy. Assigning an object with value and/or test lets you customize the caching policy and the types of files being cached. Assigning false disables caching
useServerlessTraceTarget	boolean	false	Use the experimental-serverless-trace target to build your next app. This is the same build target that Vercel Now uses. See this RFC for details. Note: while using this, you may need to set NODE_ENV variable to production.
logLambdaExecutionTimes	boolean	false	Logs to CloudWatch the default handler performance metrics.
minifyHandlers	boolean	false	Use pre-built minified handlers to reduce code size. Does not minify custom handlers.
deploy	boolean	true	Whether to deploy resources to AWS (available in the latest alpha). Useful if you just need the build outputs (Lambdas and assets) but want to deploy them yourself. Build outputs will be created in the .serverless_nextjs directory. You are then responsible to configure AWS yourself: setting CloudFront behaviors with Lambda function associations, uploading assets to S3 with the proper Cache-Control headers, etc.
enableHTTPCompression	boolean	false	When set to true the Lambda@Edge functions for SSR and API requests will use Gzip to compress the response. Note that you shouldn't need to enable this because CloudFront will compress responses for you out of the box.
authentication	object	undefined	Authentication object for use with basic authentication. It only supports a single username/password combination for now and is inlined in plaintext in the Lambda handler. You must also forward the Authorization header for CloudFront behaviors, e.g defaults, api/*, and _next/data/*. Note: this is meant as a simple means of protecting an environment such as a development/test site, it is not recommended for production use.
authentication.username	string	undefined	Username for basic authentication.
authentication.password	string	undefined	Password for basic authentication. Note: it is highly recommended not to reuse a password here as it gets inlined in plaintext in the Lambda handler.

Custom inputs can be configured like this:

myNextApp:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    bucketName: my-bucket

FAQ

My component doesn't deploy

Make sure your serverless.yml uses the serverless-components format. serverless components differ from the original serverless framework, even though they are both accessible via the same CLI.

✅ Do

# serverless.yml
myNextApp:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"

myTable:
  component: serverless/aws-dynamodb
  inputs:
    name: Customers
# other components

🚫 Don't

# serverless.yml
provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs10.x
  region: eu-west-1

myNextApp:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"

Resources: ...

Note how the correct yaml doesn't declare a provider, Resources, etc.

For deploying, don't run serverless deploy. Simply run serverless and that deploys your components declared in the serverless.yml file.

For more information about serverless components go here.

The Lambda@Edge code size is too large

The API handler and default handler packages are deployed separately, but each has a limit of 50 MB zipped or 250 MB uncompressed per AWS - see here and here. By design, there is currently only one Lambda@Edge for all page routes and one Lambda@Edge for all API routes. This could lead to code size issues especially if you have many API routes, SSR pages, etc.

If you are encountering code size issues, please try the following:

• Optimize your code size: reduce # dependencies in your SSR pages and API routes, have fewer SSR pages (i.e don't use getInitialProps() or getServerSideProps()).

• Minify the handler code itself by using the minifyHandlers input. This will reduce handler size from ~500 kB to ~200 kB.

• Minify/minimize your server-side code using Terser by adding the following Webpack configuration to your next.config.js. It uses NEXT_MINIMIZE environment variable to tell it to minimize the SSR code. Note that this will increase build times, and minify the code so it could be harder to debug CloudWatch errors.

First, add terser-webpack-plugin to your dependencies. Then update next.config.js:

const TerserPlugin = require("terser-webpack-plugin");

webpack: (config, { buildId, dev, isServer, defaultLoaders, webpack }) => {
  if (isServer && !dev && process.env.NEXT_MINIMIZE === "true") {
    config.optimization = {
      minimize: true,
      minimizer: [
        new TerserPlugin({
          parallel: true,
          cache: true,
          terserOptions: {
            output: { comments: false },
            mangle: true,
            compress: true
          },
          extractComments: false
        })
      ]
    };
  }

  return config;
};

Note that if you do not use any API routes, all JS files used only for prerendering static pages are automatically removed from the bundle. However, if you use API routes, we do not remove them as they may be used for preview mode. There's no official/non-hacky way to identify and remove these JS files not used in preview mode even when API routes are used. But we can add a new input to manually exclude them, if needed.

• Use the useServerlessTraceTarget option in serverless.yml. This will cause Next.js to not bundle dependencies into each page (instead creating lightweight pages) and then serverless-next.js will reference a single set of dependencies in node_modules.

Serverless deployment takes a long time and times out with a message like "TimeoutError: Connection timed out after 120000ms"

This is likely either because of a Lambda@Edge code size issue (see above for potential solutions. Related GitHub Issue) or if you have a slow network upload speed and/or are trying to deploy a large Lambda package.

In the second case, the aws-sdk npm package used has a default timeout of 120 seconds. Right now this is not configurable, but we may support longer timeouts in the near future (similar to serverless/serverless#937, which only applies to Serverless Framework, not Serverless Components).

When accessing the Host header in my SSR pages or APIs, I get an S3 domain instead of the CloudFront distribution or my domain name

By default, CloudFront sets the Host header to the S3 origin host name. You need to forward the Host header to the origin. See the example below for forwarding it for your api/* cache behavior:

myNextApplication:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"
  inputs:
    cloudfront:
      api/*:
        forward:
          headers: [Host]

Should I use the serverless-plugin or this component?

Users are encouraged to use this component instead of the serverless-plugin. This component was built and designed using lessons learned from the serverless plugin.

How do I interact with other AWS Services within my app?

See examples/dynamodb-crud for an example Todo application that interacts with DynamoDB. You can find a full list of examples here

[CI/CD] Multi-stage deployments / A new CloudFront distribution is created on every CI build. I wasn't expecting that

1. You need to commit your application state in source control. That is the files under the .serverless directory. Although this is not recommended as it doesn't work well for multiple stages.
2. Alternatively you could use S3 to store the .serverless files, see an example here, here (uses multiple serverless.yml files), or here (GitHub Actions-based, uses multiple serverless.yml files).
3. You can also use the distributionId CloudFront input to specify an existing CloudFront distribution to deploy to.

In the future, we will look to improve this by integrating proper stage management into the component itself.

My lambda is deployed to us-east-1. How can I deploy it to another region?

Serverless Next.js is regionless. By design, serverless-next.js applications will be deployed across the globe to every CloudFront edge location. The lambda might look like is only deployed to us-east-1 but behind the scenes, it is replicated to every other region.

I require passing additional information into my build

See the sample below for an advanced build setup that includes passing additional arguments and environment variables to the build.

# serverless.yml
myDatabase:
  component: MY_DATABASE_COMPONENT
myNextApp:
  component: "@sls-next/serverless-component@{version_here}"

I was expecting for automatic subdomain redirection when using the domainType: www/apex input

You can use the new domainRedirects input, along with forwarding Host header and domainType: both, to redirect requests to the correct domain. See example configuration below that redirects www.example.com requests to https://example.com.

next-app:
  component: "../../serverless-components/nextjs-component"
  inputs:
    cloudfront:
      defaults:
        forward:
          headers: [Host]
    domain: ["example.com"]
    domainType: "both"
    domainRedirects:
      www.example.com: https://example.com

All of this happens within the Lambda@Edge origin request handlers. Please note that this will not allow you to redirect requests at _next/static/* or /static/*, since those cache behaviors do not have a Lambda@Edge handler attached to them.

Otherwise, you can also use the manual workaround using an S3 bucket outlined here. In summary, you will have to create a new S3 bucket and set it up with static website hosting to redirect requests to your supported subdomain type (ex. "www.example.com" or "example.com"). To be able to support HTTPS redirects, you'll need to set up a CloudFront distribution with the S3 redirect bucket as the origin. Finally, you'll need to create an "A" record in Route 53 with your newly created CloudFront distribution as the alias target.

My environment variables set in build.env don't show up in my app

To allow your app to access the defined environment variables, you need to expose them via the next.config.js as outlined here.

Given a serverless.yml like this

myApp:
  inputs:
    build:
      env:
        API_HOST: "http://example.com"

your next.config.js should look like that:

module.exports = {
  env: {
    API_HOST: process.env.API_HOST
  }
};
