Example application using Hellō

👀 Online demo at https://next-with-hello.vercel.app

---

This example creates an authentication system that uses Hellō for user login and retrieving user claims. User data is then stored in a signed and encrypted session cookie with iron-session. The authentication and session functionality is implemented in nextjs-hello - see that package's README for more documentation.

It is based off the Single Page Hellō Demo App and the with-iron-session Next.js example.

Features of the example:

• Login and update the user's profile with Hellō.
• Login redirects and return URLs for both statically generated and server-side rendered pages.
• The logged in status is synchronized between browser windows/tabs using the useUser hook.
• Session data is signed and encrypted in a cookie.

Deploy your own

Several environment variables should be configured in Vercel:

1. If you have not yet set the HELLO_CLIENT_ID environment variable, you'll be prompted to create a new quickstart application upon login. In development, the client ID will be automatically written to the .env files. In production, you'll need to set the HELLO_CLIENT_ID environment variable to the client ID provided by Hellō and redeploy.
2. Set the HELLO_BASE_URL environment variable to your app's Vercel URL, e.g. https://next-with-hello.vercel.app.
3. Set the HELLO_SESSION_SECRET to a random string.

You can view/configure your Hellō application via the Hellō developer console.

Development

1. Clone the repo/deploy your own. (You'll have to fork the repo if you want to submit PRs)
2. yarn install

• You might have to update node with nvm install --lts and nvm use --lts

3. yarn dev
