next-build-test

This binary lets you sidestep all of the node bundling and run a turbo build against a raw rust binary. It does not do everything nextjs does, but it is an ok approximation.

Getting started

You will need a project_options file that points to some nextjs repo that has its dependencies installed. The easiest way to do that is to run a nextjs build using a modified binary that produces one out for you or to run the generate command and tweak it manually. We cannot bundle one in the repo, since it needs fs-specific paths and env vars.

You can run the binary with the generate flag to build one for you.

cargo run -- generate /path/to/project > project_options.json
cargo run -- run

Flags

The run command supports 4 flags:

strategy can be one of sequential, concurrent, or parallel. defines how work is structured
factor defined how many pages should be built at once. defaults to num_cpus
limit defines the highest number of pages to build. the pages are shuffled deterministically. defaults to 1 page
pages a comma separated list of routes to run. queues that precise set in the order specified
