netlify-cache-nextjs VS tokens

In terms of deployment, you can deploy the site wherever you can host a Next.js Jamstack site. I deployed mine to Netlify and utilized the Netlify Next.js cache plugin to improve the build speed. Utilizing the cache was important in my case as I have a lot of DEV posts and the DEV API is rate limited to 3 rps for reads (1 rps for writes, but that doesn't impact our API). (Note: the code has a short delay built into the blog post rendering to prevent API limit errors during the build on sites with a lot of posts.)

First of all, you need to generate a new GitHub Token. You can generate a token in your GitHub account settings at https://github.com/settings/tokens. Make sure to add the ‘read:packages’ scope to your token.

First, generate the GitHub token here.

Environment Variables Create a file .env in the root folder and add your own github api token as below

Go to the Personal access tokens area in the Developer settings of your GitHub profile and click Generate new token.

Versioning The initial step in this workflow involves generating version numbers based on git tag numbers. To access repository information, it's necessary to include a GitHub token in the secrets. You can create a GitHub token by following this link. Please keep in mind that secret names cannot start with the term GITHUB. For instance, you might save your GitHub token as TOKEN_GITHUB.

GitHub has tucked the personal access tokens admin in a slightly hard-to-find location. From anywhere in GitHub, you can click on your profile image → Settings → Developer Settings → Personal Access Tokens.

Generate a classic PAT (personal access token) from Github with repo and admin:org scopes at least.

YOUR_TOKEN="no_token_for_you" # IMPORTANT: your Github API access key, make one at "https://github.com/settings/tokens"

You should click on that and then you will see Tokens (classic) which will bring you to https://github.com/settings/tokens

In order to publish the artifacts to GitHub, we need to create a personal access token from the GitHub developer settings page and add it to the environment variables section of the Travis CI repository. The same variable api_key is used in the deploy phase of our configuration.
