Vercel

Overview

DirectoryKit is optimized for deployment on Vercel, the platform built by the creators of Next.js.

Deployment steps

See the Deploy in 5 Minutes tutorial for a step-by-step guide.

Build settings

Vercel auto-detects Next.js. The build command is:

next build --webpack

DirectoryKit uses webpack mode (not Turbopack) due to custom configuration in next.config.ts.

Cron jobs

Configure cron jobs in vercel.json:

{
  "crons": [
    {
      "path": "/api/cron/account-notifications",
      "schedule": "0 9 * * *"
    }
  ]
}

Cron endpoints are secured with Authorization: Bearer ${CRON_SECRET}.

Environment variables

Add all variables from .env.local to your Vercel project settings. See Environment Variables for the full list.
