To use Auth0 with Firestore and Next.js, you can follow these steps:
- Create an account on Auth0 and set up authentication for your application. You can follow their documentation to set up Auth0 authentication.
- Set up Firestore by creating a Firestore project on the Firebase Console and initializing Firestore in your Next.js application. You can follow the Firebase documentation for instructions on setting up Firestore.
- Install the necessary npm packages for Auth0 and Firebase in your Next.js application. You can do this by running the following commands:
1
|
npm install @auth0/nextjs-auth0 @firebase/app @firebase/auth @firebase/firestore |
- Set up the Auth0 provider in your Next.js application by creating a file named auth0.js in the lib directory of your project with the following code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 |
import { initAuth0 } from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';
export default initAuth0({
domain: process.env.AUTH0_DOMAIN,
clientId: process.env.AUTH0_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: process.env.AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET,
scope: 'openid profile',
redirectUri: process.env.AUTH0_REDIRECT_URI,
postLogoutRedirectUri: process.env.AUTH0_POST_LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URI,
session: {
cookieSecret: process.env.COOKIE_SECRET,
cookieLifetime: 60 * 60 * 8,
storeIdToken: true,
storeAccessToken: true,
storeRefreshToken: true
}
});

- Create a Firebase configuration file in your project with your Firebase project credentials. You can do this by adding a file named firebaseConfig.js with the following code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 |
import { initializeApp } from '@firebase/app';
import { getAuth } from '@firebase/auth';
import { getFirestore } from '@firebase/firestore';
const firebaseConfig = {
apiKey: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_API_KEY',
authDomain: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN',
projectId: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID',
storageBucket: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET',
messagingSenderId: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID',
appId: 'YOUR_FIREBASE_APP_ID'
};
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
const auth = getAuth(app);
const db = getFirestore(app);
export { auth, db };
|
- Use the Auth0 provider and Firebase configuration in your Next.js pages to handle authentication and Firestore operations. Here's an example of how you can use these in a page:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
import { useUser } from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';
import { db } from '../lib/firebaseConfig';
export default function Profile() {
const { user, error, isLoading } = useUser();
if (isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
if (error) return <div>{error.message}</div>;
if (!user) return <a href="/api/auth/login">Login</a>;
// Use Firestore operations here
}
|
- You can now use Auth0 authentication and Firestore in your Next.js application. Make sure to secure your Firestore operations by checking the user's authentication status before allowing them to access sensitive data.
