Question

If we are using express custom index.js do you think this will work?

'use strict'

const express = require('express')
const next = require('next')
const proxy = require('http-proxy-middleware')
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')
const cors = require('cors')
const {parse} = require('url')
const fs = require('fs')

const {Env, Entities, GraphQL} = require('./core/config')
const {parseQueryUrl, isDirectory} = require('./core/rules/routes')

console.log('Startup VARS:', Env.nodeEnv)

const port = Env.port || 3000

const conf = require('./next.config')
// TODO: trying to fix the production react bundling isue

console.log('[next config]', Env.nodeEnv !== 'production', Env.nodeEnv)

console.log({conf, dev: Env.dev})
const app = next({conf, dev: Env.dev})
const handle = app.getRequestHandler()

etc...

We currently use this:

Seems to work fine.
