Next.js sites hosted on Netlify (or non-Vercel hosts)
You can read more about getServerSideProps on the Next.js website.
Then, each time the page is requested, Next.js will fetch the data, build the XML feed and write the results to the response object as XML data.Įnter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode In this scenario, you'd use the getServerSideProps function as part of a rss.js page. Hosting your Next.js website on Vercel's platform (the creators of Next.js) means you won't have to worry about anything it's perfectly geared up to handling the default Next build output as you might expect.
