Handling requests with Gatsby
Gatsby Functions
Gatsby Functions provides an Express-like architecture that simplifies building Node.js APIs.
So, Gatsby Functions can use the ClerkExpressWithAuth
and ClerkExpressRequireAuth
middlewares from the Clerk Node SDK as shown below.
import { ClerkExpressRequireAuth } from '@clerk/clerk-sdk-node';const requireAuth = ClerkExpressRequireAuth();export default async function clerkHandler(req, res) {await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {requireAuth(req, res, result => {if (result instanceof Error) {reject(result);}resolve(result);});})res.json(`Hi from Gatsby Functions`)}
For more information on how to use Express middlewares in Gatsby refer to the Gatsby official documentation.
