Conditionally rendering Next.js based components: How to depend on whether the request comes from an authenticated Firebase user?

Note: I am using Next.js 13 and the app/ directory.

I'm learning Firebase and Next.js and I'm trying to understand how to solve a toy problem. Let's say I have a Home()Component

like this

/app/page.jsx

export default function Home() { return (  Hello World
 Only authenticated users can see this text
 
 ) }

My goal is to conditionally render everything in

...

based on whether the user requesting the page is a logged in user. Firebase renders this component server side using JWT, Next.js 13, so I believe this is possible, but I can't figure out how to do it.

I know about onAuthStateChanged, but as far as I know this can only be used on the client side. (Savvy users can still view this protected content.) How do I protect this content server-side?

To check if the user is logged in, you can use the 'onAuthStateChanged' method.

Store this information in the component's state, or use it to conditionally render parts of the component.

import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import firebase from 'firebase/app'; import 'firebase/auth'; export default function Home() { const [user, setUser] = useState(null); useEffect(() => { const unsubscribe = firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(user => { setUser(user); }); return () => unsubscribe(); }, []); return (  Hello World
 {user ? ( authenticated user
 ) : null} 
 ); }

To perform user authentication on the server side, Next.js provides 'getServerSideProps' to get the user's authentication status

import firebase from 'firebase/app'; import 'firebase/auth'; export default function Home({ user }) { return (  Hello World
 {user ? ( authenticated user
 ) : null} 
 ); } export async function getServerSideProps(context) { const user = await new Promise((resolve, reject) => { firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(user => { resolve(user); }); }); return { props: { user, }, }; }

Updated solution:

Create a server-side route

import firebase from 'firebase/app'; import 'firebase/auth'; import express from 'express'; const app = express(); app.get('/api/user', async (req, res) => { const user = await new Promise((resolve, reject) => { firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(user => { resolve(user); }); }); res.send(user); }); app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('Server started at http://localhost:3000'); });

Client code

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; import axios from 'axios'; export default function Home() { const [user, setUser] = useState(null); useEffect(() => { const fetchUser = async () => { const res = await axios.get('http://localhost:3000/api/user'); const user = res.data; setUser(user); }; fetchUser(); }, []); return (  Hello World
 {user ? ( authenticated user
 ) : null} 
 ); }
