A live demo of this application is available at https://xata-gallery.vercel.app. The demo turns off the ability to upload and delete images. For local or forked versions, set the .env
setting READ_ONLY=false
.
A small example Xata application built with Next.js & Chakra UI.
This app showcases serveral Xata features including:
- Offset based pagination
- Form management and submission
- Search
- Aggregations
- Summaries
- Image transformations
- Queries using junction tables and links
- Proper Next.js + Xata TypeScript patterns
You'll need to install Xata before performing these steps.
git clone git@github.com:xataio/sample-nextjs-chakra-gallery-app.git
cd sample-nextjs-chakra-gallery-app
pnpm install
- Run
pnpm run bootstrap
the first you set up the project. This will ask for a Xata database to install to (you can create a new one) and then seed in some data. pnpm run dev
to load the site at http://localhost:3000- Add images either through the application, or through your database UI at https://app.xata.io
After you run init, your .env
file should look like this
# Xata credentials
XATA_BRANCH=main
XATA_API_KEY=
# Setting to true will disable API / UI to write to the database
READ_ONLY=false
