ReactJS - NextJS - A HOC for wrapping NextJS pages in an authentication check. Checks for getInitialProps on the child component and runs it, so you still get SSR from the page. Also includes a user agent for Material UI.

nextjs-hoc-authorization.js

import React, {Component} from 'react'
import Router from 'next/router'
import AuthService from './AuthService'

export default function withAuth(AuthComponent) {
    const Auth = new AuthService('http://localhost')
    return class Authenticated extends Component {

      static async getInitialProps(ctx) {
        // Ensures material-ui renders the correct css prefixes server-side
        let userAgent
        if (process.browser) {
          userAgent = navigator.userAgent
        } else {
          userAgent = ctx.req.headers['user-agent']
        }

        // Check if Page has a `getInitialProps`; if so, call it.
        const pageProps = AuthComponent.getInitialProps && await AuthComponent.getInitialProps(ctx);
        // Return props.
        return { ...pageProps, userAgent }
      }

      constructor(props) {
        super(props)
        this.state = {
          isLoading: true
        };
      }

      componentDidMount () {
        if (!Auth.loggedIn()) {
          Router.push('/')
        }
        this.setState({ isLoading: false })
      }

      render() {
        return (
          <div>
          {this.state.isLoading ? (
              <div>LOADING....</div>
            ) : (
              <AuthComponent {...this.props}  auth={Auth} />
            )}
          </div>
        )
      }
    }
}

I couldn't use the getServerSideProps method in a HOC, because it is only available on pages. Neither use getInitialProps inside a getServerSideProps, I got a warning in my console.
In my case. I needed a generic function to validate the user's access to a private page with an async call. I solved this by creating a function that receives the context and a callback.

//util.js
const validateRoute = (context) => async (callback) => {
  const { id, pathname } = context.query;
  const paths = await getAllowedPaths(id);
  if (!paths.includes(pathname)) {
    return {
      redirect: "/home",
      permanente: false,
    };
  }
  return callback();
};

In all my private pages.

export const getServerSideProps = (context) => {
  return validateRoute(context)(async () => {
    // my custom callback for each page.
    const { id } = context.query;
    const props = await getUserData(id);
    return {
      props,
    };
  });
};

would you help port this to typescript?
I was able to cast it like this:

import { GetServerSidePropsContext, GetServerSidePropsResult } from 'next'
import Cookies from 'cookies'

type EmptyProps = {
  props: Record<string, unknown>
}

// HOC to only be executed when user is not logged in, otherwise redirect to portal
const withoutAuth = (context: GetServerSidePropsContext) => async (
  callback: () => any
): Promise<GetServerSidePropsResult<EmptyProps>> => {
  const cookies = new Cookies(context.req, context.res)

  if (cookies.get('user')) {
    return {
      redirect: {
        destination: '/protected-source',
        permanent: false,
      },
    }
  }

  return callback()
}

export default withoutAuth

I still can figure the typescript definition for the callback... I've ended up doing callback: () => any

@mtoranzoskw callback has no parameter and might return the same values of withoutAuth. Try this out, let me know if it works.

const withoutAuth = (context: GetServerSidePropsContext) => async (
  callback: () => GetServerSidePropsResult<EmptyProps>
): Promise<GetServerSidePropsResult<EmptyProps>> => {

Not working... I've tried that but I have an error when implementing it

Got an error using Promise as well (callback: () => Promise<GetServerSidePropsResult<EmptyProps>>)

@mtoranzoskw try to make your props optional.

type EmptyProps = {
  props?: Record<string, unknown>
}

// or

type EmptyProps = {
  props: Partial<Record<string, unknown>>
}

Thanks for the help @Sergioamjr

I've tried both, but making props optional was the only one that worked! I guess Partial would go 1 level up so that props become optional.

type EmptyProps = {
  props?: Record<string, unknown>
}

💪

anyone done this without getInialProps ? currently im using next 11 and i want to add auth to my app but so far i couldnt understand the logic around protected routes in next js

Thank a lot
