Core Patterns

bkend.ai Client Setup

// lib/bkend.ts
const API_BASE = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL || 'https://api.bkend.ai/v1';
const PROJECT_ID = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID!;

async function bkendFetch(path: string, options: RequestInit = {}) {
  const token = localStorage.getItem('bkend_access_token');
  const res = await fetch(`${API_BASE}${path}`, {
    ...options,
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'x-project-id': PROJECT_ID,
      ...(token && { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` }),
      ...options.headers,
    },
  });
  if (!res.ok) throw new Error(await res.text());
  return res.json();
}

export const bkend = {
  auth: {
    signup: (body: {email: string; password: string}) =>
      bkendFetch('/auth/email/signup', {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    signin: (body: {email: string; password: string}) =>
      bkendFetch('/auth/email/signin', {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    me: () => bkendFetch('/auth/me'),
    signout: () => bkendFetch('/auth/signout', {method: 'POST'}),
  },
  data: {
    list: (table: string, params?: Record<string,string>) =>
      bkendFetch(`/data/${table}?${new URLSearchParams(params)}`),
    get: (table: string, id: string) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`),
    create: (table: string, body: any) =>
      bkendFetch(`/data/${table}`, {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    update: (table: string, id: string, body: any) =>
      bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`, {method: 'PATCH', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    delete: (table: string, id: string) =>
      bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`, {method: 'DELETE'}),
  },
};

Authentication Hook

// hooks/useAuth.ts
import { create } from 'zustand';
import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware';
import { bkend } from '@/lib/bkend';

interface AuthState {
  user: User | null;
  isLoading: boolean;
  login: (email: string, password: string) => Promise<void>;
  logout: () => void;
}

export const useAuth = create<AuthState>()(
  persist(
    (set) => ({
      user: null,
      isLoading: false,
      login: async (email, password) => {
        set({ isLoading: true });
        const { user, token } = await bkend.auth.signin({ email, password });
        localStorage.setItem('bkend_access_token', token);
        set({ user, isLoading: false });
      },
      logout: () => {
        bkend.auth.signout();
        localStorage.removeItem('bkend_access_token');
        set({ user: null });
      },
    }),
    { name: 'auth-storage' }
  )
);

Protected Route

// components/ProtectedRoute.tsx
'use client';
import { useAuth } from '@/hooks/useAuth';
import { redirect } from 'next/navigation';

export function ProtectedRoute({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  const { user, isLoading } = useAuth();
  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (!user) redirect('/login');
  return <>{children}</>;
}

Environment Variables

# .env.local
NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL=https://api.bkend.ai/v1
NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id
NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_ENV=dev

Pipeline Flow (Dynamic)

Phase 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4(bkend.ai) -> 5 -> 6 -> 7 -> 8 -> 9

Limitations

• Complex backend logic (serverless function limits)
• Large-scale traffic (within BaaS limits)
• Custom infrastructure control
• Microservices architecture

When to Upgrade

Move to Enterprise Level ($enterprise) if you need:

• Significantly increased traffic handling
• Microservices architecture
• Custom server/infrastructure
• Complex backend logic

Common Mistakes

Mistake	Solution
CORS error	Register domain in bkend.ai console
401 Unauthorized	Token expired, re-login or refresh token
Data not showing	Check collection name, query conditions
Type error	Sync TypeScript types with schema
