Handling Long-Running Server Functions in Next.js: Seeking Alternatives to Vercel Time Limits
Hey everyone! I'm working on a Next.js project where I need to sync and handle all new emails from an email server to a database. This process can take a couple of minutes, but I've noticed that Vercel has time limits of 10 seconds on the free hobby plan and 1 minute on the pro plan. Unfortunately, these limits are too short for my use case. Can you share any insights or alternatives you've used to handle long-running server functions in Next.js? Thanks in advance for your help!
Paypal webhooks
I've successfully set up paypal subscriptions inside a nextJS app
whenever i subscribe using the paypal buttons, it works just fine, but the only event that's fired is
BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.ACTIVATED
if i have my subscriptions be billed monthly, should i wait one month for the PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED event?
i was expecting both BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.ACTIVATED and PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED would fire when a user first subscribes, then PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED for the next payments...planet scale cost confusion.
I'm new to wanting to work with big data, and I don't have a huge budget. Ideally $100 or less...hoping for someone with experience can advise here.
- I want to use prisma with mySQL on planet scale but I plan on storing 2+ terabytes of data.
- I see that is says $2.50 per extra GB which seems expensive? $2,500 = 1000gb
- While AWS General Purpose SSD is about 0.23 USD per gb = $230 = 1000gb...
Solution:
nvm going to be hosting my db on an external hard drive and using compression for 70% extra space.
Tailwind, SASS, and PostCSS
I'm a beginner learning web dev, and I'm trying to understand the unique value that SASS and PostCSS bring to the table.
should I learn SASS and PostCSS with the same urgency as Tailwind (something I've perceived as more important to the webdev community)? or am I fine just learning tailwind and not worrying about the other two?...

question about specifying events in typescript
In this example, why is the element type of the FormEvent specified with this syntax like
FormEvent<HTMLFormElement> is this just how it was designed that when you specify the form element of a form event, you place the element type in <> to the right of the event type?
Sending emails
Hey, wondering whats the best option to send emails to users. Right now sending emails for verifying the users email.

View but not download with S3
Hi, I have a subscription service that allows users to view certain PDFs that I store on S3, in my NextJS app is there any way to allow the users to still view the PDF but if they try download it they get like a 403 (forbidden) error. I've found a youtube video that kinda does what I'm looking for (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x239gnCxGk0&lc=Ugyakc8uGhSM79WxoXd4AaABAg) but it doesn't work for me and I'm not sure how I'd do that with NextJs.
Thanks...
Drizzle not pulling in environment variables
So originally my app was fine with the env variables originally but now it is not working. I am not sure what is going on. I have tried to use the dotenv package but that did not work.
my drizzle config
```ts
import { type Config } from 'drizzle-kit';...
Solution:
^- this. also, do you get the same error while building your app or just pushing?
P.S. if you want to use dotenv as a workaround, you have to import variables using
process.env.YOU_ENV_VAR as it won't affect the t3env env object...Drizzle search column for string
Very noob question: Hey, I've switched to Drizzle, set up my tables. I've also looked into the filters and operations, but I cannot find any way to search a column for values containing x, e.g. for a search field of usernames. How can I do this in Drizzle? Any answer is greatly appreciated.
