🚀 Live Demo

Live Demo no longer works because my MongoDB Atlas account was cancelled :(

Configuration

Set up a MongoDB database

Set up a MongoDB database either locally or with MongoDB Atlas for free.

Set up environment variables

Copy the .env.local.example file in this directory to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):

cp .env.local.example .env.local

Set each variable on .env.local:

• MONGODB_URI - Your MongoDB connection string. If you are using MongoDB Atlas you can find this by clicking the "Connect" button for your cluster.
• MONGODB_DB - The name of the MongoDB database you want to use.

Run Next.js in development mode

npm install
npm run dev

# or

yarn install
yarn dev

Your app should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, post on GitHub discussions.

You will either see a message stating "You are connected to MongoDB" or "You are NOT connected to MongoDB". Ensure that you have provided the correct MONGODB_URI and MONGODB_DB environment variables.

When you are successfully connected, you can refer to the MongoDB Node.js Driver docs for further instructions on how to query your database.

Deploy on Vercel

You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).

Deploy Your Local Project

To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and import to Vercel.

Important: When you import your project on Vercel, make sure to click on Environment Variables and set them to match your .env.local file.
