Run locally

When making some changes to OpenNext, it can be a bit cumbersome to need to deploy every time you want to test changes. If your change is not dependent on the wrapper or the converter, then you can create a custom open-next.config.ts file (you can use another name so that it doesn't conflict with your existing open-next.config.ts). Here is an example with a bunch of custom overrides:

To run OpenNext locally:

# This is to build (the config-path is needed if you use a different name than the default one)
node /path/to/open-next/packages/open-next/dist/index.js build --config-path open-next.local.config.ts
# Then to run the server
node .open-next/server-functions/default/index.mjs
// open-next.local.config.ts - 
// A good practice would be to use a different name so that it doesn't conflict 
// with your existing open-next.config.ts i.e. open-next.local.config.ts
import type {OpenNextConfig} from 'open-next/types/open-next'
 
const config = {
  default: {
    override:{
      // We use a custom wrapper so that we can use static assets and image optimization locally
      wrapper: () => import('./dev/wrapper').then(m => m.default),
      // ISR and SSG won't work properly locally without this - Remove if you only need SSR
      incrementalCache: () => import('./dev/incrementalCache').then(m => m.default),
      // ISR requires a queue to work properly - Remove if you only need SSR or SSG
      queue: () => import('./dev/queue').then(m => m.default),
      converter: 'node',
    }
  },
  // You don't need this part if you don't use image optimization or don't need it in your test
  imageOptimization: {
    // Image optimization only work on linux, and you have to use the correct architecture for your system
    arch: 'x64',
    override: {
      wrapper: 'node',
      converter: 'node',
    }
    // If you need to test with local assets, you'll have to override the imageLoader as well
  },
 
  dangerous: {
    // We disable the cache tags as it will usually not be needed locally for testing
    // It's only used for next/cache revalidateTag and revalidatePath
    // If you need it you'll have to override the tagCache as well
    disableTagCache: true,
 
 
    // You can uncomment this line if you only need to test SSR
    //disableIncrementalCache: true,
  },
  // You can override the build command so that you don't have to rebuild the app every time
  // You need to have run the default build command at least once
