Migration to Runtime ENVs & Docker cached building process
Reasons & Benefits
Version Sprint 22 of the Storefront contains frontend applications that using environment variables for configuration purposes. The way how they are used makes that values of those variables are hard-coded into the code of the frontend applications.
During the Middleware application is fully configurable using the environment variables via Alokai Console, the frontend apps require a few of modifications to change the value of environment variables. To reduce those differences, we introduced changes in our modules for Next & Nuxt storefronts, to allow use environment variables in runtime.
This brings us benefits in simplicity of making changes into configuration of Storefront, remove the need of rebuild and redeploy after every change.
At the same time, we introduce the caching Docker build process in our deployment actions. Both of these changes are interconnected with each other, that's why we present them in a single migration guide.
Next.js (Pages Router)
- Update
@vue-storefront/next
package to version 3.0.0 and installnext-runtime-env
as dependency
cd apps/storefront-unified-nextjs
yarn add next-runtime-env@1.7.4 @vue-storefront/next@3.0.1 @vue-storefront/sdk@3.1.0
- Update Next config, placed in
apps/storefront-unified-nextjs/next.config.js
// Imports on the begining of the file
const { configureRuntimeEnv } = require('next-runtime-env/build/configure'); const { env } = require('next-runtime-env');
configureRuntimeEnv();
// ... rest of the config
const withPwa = require('next-pwa')({
// ...
});
/** @type {import('next').NextConfig} */
const nextConfig = {
reactStrictMode: true,
// ...
images: env('NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL') ? cloudinaryConfig : defaultImageConfig, // ...
async headers() {
return [
{
source: '/__ENV.js',
headers: [
{
key: 'Cache-Control',
value: 'public, max-age=0, s-max-age=15',
},
],
},
];
},
};
- Update the environment variables
For local development, update the .env
file:
# apps/storefront-unified-nextjs/.env
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL="http://localhost:4000"NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_API_URL="http://localhost:4000"NEXT_PUBLIC_MULTISTORE_ENABLED=falseNEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MULTISTORE_ENABLED=false# For CDN cache busting, you can use a hash or a version number. By default, deployed version
# uses the git commit hash. For local development, you can use a random string or skip it.
NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_CDN_CACHE_BUSTING_ID="example-hash"# Default Image Loader fetch url.
# For Cloudinary check https://cloudinary.com/documentation/fetch_remote_images#fetch_and_deliver_remote_files
NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL=https://res.cloudinary.com/dcqchkrzw/image/fetch/
# Optional. Will be used when image url will not start with http.
# For Cloudinary check https://cloudinary.com/documentation/migration#lazy_migration_with_auto_upload
NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_UPLOAD_URL=https://res.cloudinary.com/vsf-sap/image/upload/
NEXT_DEFAULT_HTML_CACHE_CONTROL="public, max-age=0, s-maxage=15, must-revalidate"
You can manage environment variables for your deployed project in the Console. Go to the Settings -> Environment variables -> Section Storefront Application. Click on the "Add variable", and use the modal fill the name & value of each environment variable. Repeat for all the variables needed to run the app.
- Update
_document.tsx
in theapps/storefront-unified-nextjs/pages/
/* eslint-disable @next/next/no-sync-scripts */
import Document, { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from 'next/document';
class MyDocument extends Document {
render() {
return (
<Html>
<Head>
<meta
httpEquiv="delegate-ch"
content="sec-ch-width https://res.cloudinary.com; sec-ch-dpr https://res.cloudinary.com; sec-ch-viewport-width https://res.cloudinary.com;"

<link rel="dns-prefetch" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/" />
<script src="/__ENV.js" /> {/* Allows for passing runtime environment variables to the browser */}
</Head>
<body>
<Main />
<NextScript />
</body>
</Html>
);
}
}
export default MyDocument;
- Update SSR cache control
// apps/storefront-unified-nextjs/helpers/ssr/setCacheControl.ts
import type { IncomingMessage, ServerResponse } from 'http';
import { env } from 'next-runtime-env';
export function setCacheControl(res: ServerResponse<IncomingMessage>, custom?: string) {
// WARNING: it doesn't work in dev mode, since Next disables caching
// while running the app in this mode.
const cacheControlSettings = custom ?? process.env.NEXT_DEFAULT_HTML_CACHE_CONTROL; const cacheControlSettings = custom ?? env('NEXT_DEFAULT_HTML_CACHE_CONTROL'); if (!cacheControlSettings) return;
res.setHeader('Cache-Control', cacheControlSettings);
res.setHeader('Vary', 'Accept-Encoding');
}
- Update Cloudinary config
// apps/storefront-unified-nextjs/config/image-loaders/cloudinary/cloudinary.ts
import { NextImageLoader } from './types';
import { env } from 'next-runtime-env';
const cloudinaryLoader: NextImageLoader = ({ src, width, quality }) => {
if (!process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL) { if (!env('NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL')) { // eslint-disable-next-line no-console
console.warn(`NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL is not defined, skipping Cloudinary image optimization.`);
return src;
}
let baseURL = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL; let baseURL = env('NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_FETCH_URL');
if (!src.startsWith('http') && process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_UPLOAD_URL) { if (!src.startsWith('http') && env('NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_UPLOAD_URL')) { baseURL = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_UPLOAD_URL; baseURL = env('NEXT_PUBLIC_IMAGE_LOADER_UPLOAD_URL'); }
const params = ['f_auto', 'c_limit', 'dpr_auto', `w_${width}`, `q_${quality || 'auto'}`];
return `${baseURL}${params.join(',')}/${src}`;
};
export default cloudinaryLoader;
- Update
.gitignore
in the NextJS app. Add this line at the bottom of the file:
# apps/storefront-unified-nextjs/.gitignore
public/__ENV.js
- Update the SDK configuration
Let's start with updating a sdk/sdk.config.ts
file:
import { env } from 'next-runtime-env'; import { contentfulModule } from '@vsf-enterprise/contentful-sdk';
import { CreateSdkOptions, createSdk } from '@vue-storefront/next';
import type { UnifiedEndpoints, CheckoutEndpoints } from 'storefront-middleware/types';
if (!process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL) {
throw new Error('NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL is required to run the app');
}
const options: CreateSdkOptions = {
middleware: {
apiUrl: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL,
},
multistore: {
enabled: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_MULTISTORE_ENABLED === 'true',
},
};
const apiUrl = env('NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_API_URL') ?? '';
const ssrApiUrl = env('NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_SSR_API_URL');
const cdnCacheBustingId =
env('NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_CDN_CACHE_BUSTING_ID') ?? 'no-cache-busting-id-set';
const isMultiStoreEnabled = env('NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MULTISTORE_ENABLED') === 'true';
if (!apiUrl) {
throw new Error('NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_API_URL is required to run the app');
}
const options: CreateSdkOptions = {
middleware: {
apiUrl,
cdnCacheBustingId,
ssrApiUrl,
},
multistore: {
enabled: isMultiStoreEnabled,
},
};
export const { getSdk } = createSdk(options, ({ buildModule, middlewareModule, middlewareUrl, getRequestHeaders }) => ({ export const { getSdk } = createSdk(options, ({ buildModule, middlewareModule, config, getRequestHeaders }) => ({ unified: buildModule(middlewareModule<UnifiedEndpoints>, {
apiUrl: `${middlewareUrl}/commerce`, apiUrl: `${config.middlewareUrl}/commerce`,
defaultRequestConfig: {
headers: getRequestHeaders(),
},
}),
contentful: buildModule(contentfulModule, {
apiUrl: `${middlewareUrl}/cntf`, apiUrl: `${config.middlewareUrl}/cntf`, }),
checkout: buildModule(middlewareModule<CheckoutEndpoints>, {
apiUrl: `${middlewareUrl}/commerce/checkout`, apiUrl: `${config.middlewareUrl}/commerce/checkout`,
defaultRequestConfig: {
headers: getRequestHeaders(),
},
}),
}));
export type Sdk = ReturnType<typeof getSdk>;
The next step is to update the SDK Provider in sdk/SdkProvider.ts
:
import { createSdkContext } from '@vue-storefront/next/client';
import { getSdk } from './sdk.config'; import type { Sdk } from './sdk.config';
export const [SdkProvider, useSdk] = createSdkContext(getSdk()); export const [SdkProvider, useSdk] = createSdkContext<Sdk>();
- As a final step, update the
pages/_app.tsx
file:
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { NextPage } from 'next';
import type { AppProps } from 'next/app';
import { HydrationBoundary, MutationCache, QueryCache, QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from '@tanstack/react-query';
import { ReactQueryDevtools } from '@tanstack/react-query-devtools';
import classNames from 'classnames';
import { appWithTranslation } from 'next-i18next';
import { DefaultSeo } from 'next-seo';
import { defaultSeoConfig } from '~/config/seo';
import { AuthCacheCleaner, CartProvider, useNotification } from '~/hooks';
import { SdkProvider } from '~/sdk'; import { getSdk, SdkProvider } from '~/sdk'; import { fontBody, fontHeadings } from '~/styles/fonts';
import '~/styles/globals.scss';
type AppPropsWithLayout = AppProps & {
Component: NextPage;
};
function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppPropsWithLayout) {
const notification = useNotification();
const [queryClient] = useState(
() =>
new QueryClient({
// ...
}),
);
useEffect(() => {
// Cypress issue https://github.com/robipop22/dnb-stack/issues/3#issuecomment-1463031001
document.querySelector('html')?.setAttribute('data-hydrated', 'true');
}, []);
return (
<SdkProvider>
<SdkProvider sdk={getSdk()}>
<QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
<DefaultSeo
{...defaultSeoConfig}
additionalMetaTags={[{ name: 'viewport', content: 'minimum-scale=1, initial-scale=1, width=device-width' }]}
/>
<HydrationBoundary state={pageProps.dehydratedState}>
<CartProvider>
<AuthCacheCleaner />
<div className={classNames(fontHeadings.variable, fontBody.variable, 'font-body')}>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</div>
</CartProvider>
</HydrationBoundary>
<ReactQueryDevtools />
</QueryClientProvider>
</SdkProvider>
);
}
export default appWithTranslation(MyApp);
- Update the Dockerfile responsible for Next.js app. It's in the
.vuestorefrontcloud/docker/nextjs/Dockerfile-frontend
:

- Set environment variables in Alokai Console
Go to the Settings -> Environment variables -> Section Storefront Application. Click on the "Add variable", and use the modal fill the name & value of each environment variable. Repeat for all the variables needed to run the app.
How should I found the value of the NEXT_PUBLIC_ALOKAI_MIDDLEWARE_API_URL
?
It's the URL of your Storefront, that you can find in the Overview page. Then just add the /api
to this address.
Nuxt
- Update the
@vue-storefront/nuxt
package to version 4.1.1
cd apps/storefront-unified-nuxt
yarn add @vue-storefront/nuxt@4.1.1 @vue-storefront/sdk@3.1.0
- Update the environment variables
For local development, update the .env.
:
# apps/storefront-unified-nuxt/.env

You can manage environment variables for your deployed project in the Console. Go to the Settings -> Environment variables -> Section Storefront Application. Click on the "Add variable", and in the modal fill the name & value of the environment variable. Repeat for all the variables needed to run the app (basically it's all those in the .env
file).
- Update the Nuxt Config
Remove the vsf
key from Nuxt Config. Now all those values will be loaded via Runtime Config by environment variables.
import path from 'node:path';
export default defineNuxtConfig({
alias: {
'@sf-modules': path.resolve(__dirname, '.', 'sf-modules'),
'@sf-modules-middleware': path.resolve(__dirname, '..', 'storefront-middleware', 'sf-modules'),

Why the NUXT_IMAGE_PROVIDER
is still passed as argument if this we talking about no hardcoding ENVs?
Very good question. Reason for that is how the Nuxt Image module is built. It uses NUXT_IMAGE_PROVIDER
environment variable only in build time. So to switch image provider, you still need to modify the value of the image_provider
in build-frontend
action in your deployment script.
