How to Use

You can choose from one of the following two methods to use this repository:

One-Click Deploy

Deploy the example using Vercel:

Clone and Deploy

Execute create-next-app with pnpm to bootstrap the example:

1
pnpm create next-app --example https://github.com/vercel/examples/tree/main/edge-middleware/bot-protection-datadome bot-protection-datadome

You'll need to have an account with DataDome. Once that's done, copy the .env.example file in this directory to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):

1
cp .env.example .env.local

Then open .env.local and set the environment variables to match the ones in your DataDome dashboard. Your keys should be available at https://app.datadome.co/dashboard/config/protection/keys

Next, run Next.js in development mode:

1
pnpm dev

Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
