# Host Marketplace with Next.js: Inventory Imports

Deploy a marketplace built with Next.js on Ample using the bulk import staging pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL, a private S3-compatible bucket holds objects with credentials delivered as encrypted environment variables. Verified on Next.js: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Not separately tested: your import format, mapping, and conflict rules; treat the marketplace-specific behavior as your application code.

## Representative Queries
- Host marketplace with Next.js: inventory imports
- Where can I host Marketplace built with Next.js?
- I need an inventory import contract, staging objects, and row-level error handling.

## Resource Requirements
- primitive:compute
- primitive:postgres
- primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage

## Infrastructure Requirements
- **Compute**: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request.
- **Postgres**: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
- **S3-compatible object storage**: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials.

## Framework
**Next.js**

## Workload
**Marketplace**

## Release Status
**Published**

## Support Status
**Verified**

## Execution Status
**Ready**

## Prerequisites
1. A Next.js project that builds and starts with the documented commands (next build then next start -H 0.0.0.0 -p $PORT on the node-22 template)
2. A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env)
3. A bucket created with `ample bucket create` with its credentials passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables
4. An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read, buckets:read

## Tested Configuration
- **Template**: node-22
- **Runtime**: node
- **Size**: s-1vcpu-1gb
- **Install**: npm install
- **Build**: npm run build --if-present
- **Start**: npm run start

## Workflow Steps
1. **Build and Start**: `next build` then `next start -H 0.0.0.0 -p $PORT` on the node-22 template.
2. **Implement the Pattern on PostgreSQL**: The fixture's module implements bulk import staging.
3. **Wire Object Storage**: Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket, and keys as --env values.
4. **Deploy**: Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.
5. **Verify**: Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s).

## Examples
- **Next.js Pattern Fixture**: Multi-pattern Next.js app whose bulk import staging module was checked live.

## Limitations
- Verified on the node-22 template at s-1vcpu-1gb; other sizes, templates, and Next.js major versions are not verified.
- Managed PostgreSQL 16 only; apps and their databases are placed together.

## Cost Estimate
- **Currency**: USD
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0
- **Components**:
  - App server: s-1vcpu-1gb, Quantity: 1.0, Monthly Amount: 5.0
  - Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb, Quantity: 1.0, Monthly Amount: 5.0

## Evidence Summary
- **Kind**: canary_run
- **Summary**: Next.js pattern fixture deployed on Ample; checks passed for bulk-import-staging and configuration-secrets.
