Preview mode bar crashes frontend after adding new content

[marcvangend]

Context

To evaluate next-drupal, I followed the quick start instructions. This was a pretty smooth process (thanks) so I continued adding some content while running the frontend with npm run dev. Then I wondered how next-drupal handles new content while running in production, so I ran npm run preview (which is short for next build && next start, the NextJS command to create and serve a production build, so I'm not sure why it is aliased "preview").

The bug

After adding new content and refreshing the frontend, I got a black bar in the top of the page saying "This page is a preview. Click here to exit preview mode." I noticed in the Chrome inspector that each mouse hover over the "Click here" link triggered a request to http://localhost:3000/_next/data/zlALAvZdtbj2TYmsbzo1-/api/exit-preview.json, but the request failed every time. Once clicked, the whole frontend application crashed. The process running npm run preview had exited too, after outputting the following error.

Is this a bug? Or am I misunderstanding what next build && next start is supposed to do in the context of a next-drupal installation?

Versions used

next-drupal 1.2.1
drupal 9.3.9
nodejs 16.13.0

Looks like a bug. I've been able to reproduce this. Looking into it. Thank you.

It looks like this is a bug as reported (and marked as bug) here: vercel/next.js#29483

Instead of using the Link component we can use a simple a tag to clear the preview.

(However, using a instead of Link will be a Eslint warning, so we can disable it for this line for now).

See below for example:

import * as React from "react"
import { useRouter } from "next/router"

export function PreviewAlert() {
  const { isPreview } = useRouter()
  const [showPreviewAlert, setShowPreviewAlert] = React.useState<boolean>(false)

  React.useEffect(() => {
    setShowPreviewAlert(isPreview && window.top === window.self)
  }, [isPreview])

  if (!showPreviewAlert) {
    return null
  }

  return (
    <div className="sticky top-0 left-0 z-50 w-full px-2 py-1 text-center text-white bg-black">
      <p className="mb-0">
        This page is a preview.{" "}
        {/* eslint-disable @next/next/no-html-link-for-pages */}
        <a href="/api/exit-preview" className="text-white underline">
          Click here
        </a>{" "}
        to exit preview mode.
      </p>
    </div>
  )
}
