It'll checks for user permissions before doing any operations.
You can enable permission checking in a Server Action or Route Handler by doing:
import { checkPermissions } from "@/utils/actions/permissions";
export async function myAction() {
"use server";
//notice that it is an async function
await checkPermissions();
}
We use Kafka for handling real operations via dashboard, so that no requests will be sent to the server that hosts the discord bot directly.
This brings a faster load speed and more better stability because the dashboad will still works even if the discord bot is temporarily unavailable.
The dashboard is built for serverless, you are able to deploy it to any serverless hosting platforms such as Vercel, Azure and AWS.
Notice that the Discord bot server can only be deployed to traditional Node.js Server hosting services, serverless environment is incompatible.
Typesafe is the key to maintain a large codebase. Although Javascript + JSDocs is perfect for libraries, it's still recommended to use Typescript for writing applications.
This template is fully written in Typescript, all the type errors will be reported at build time.
It is easy to deploy this application.
The fastest way to deploy Next.js applications is to use Vercel.
Any hosting platform that supports Node.js, such as AWS, Render, Railway.
