next-tinacms-cloudinary

Manage Cloudinary media assets in TinaCMS.

Installation

yarn add next-tinacms-cloudinary

Connect with Cloudinary

You need some credentials provided by Cloudinary to set this up properly. If you do not already have an account, you can (register here)https://cloudinary.com/users/register/free.

next-tinacms-cloudinary uses environment variables within the context of a Next.js site to properly access your Cloudinary account.

Add the following variables to a .env file.

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME=<Your Cloudinary Cloud Name>
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLOUDINARY_API_KEY=<Your Cloudinary API key>
CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET=<Your Cloudinary API secret>

Register the Media Store

Now, you can register the Cloudinary Media store with the instance of Tina in your app by passing the TinaCloudCloudinaryMediaStore to the TinaCloudProvider via its media prop.

This is also where we can update our mediaOptions on the cms object.

import { TinaCMS } from 'tinacms'
import { TinaCloudCloudinaryMediaStore } from 'next-tinacms-cloudinary'
import { TinaCloudProvider } from 'tina-graphql-gateway'

...
const cms = new TinaCMS({
  ...
  mediaOptions: {
    pageSize: 10
  }
  ...
})
const TinaWrapper = (props) => {
  return (
    <TinaCloudProvider
      cms={cms}
      clientId={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_TINA_CLIENT_ID}
      branch="main"
      isLocalClient={Boolean(Number(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_USE_LOCAL_CLIENT))}
      organization={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_ORGANIZATION_NAME}
      mediaStore={TinaCloudCloudinaryMediaStore}
    >
      <Inner {...props} />
    </TinaCloudProvider>
  )
}

...

Set up API routes

Set up a new API route in the pages directory of your Next.js app, e.g. pages/api/cloudinary. Then add a new catch all API route for media.

Call createMediaHandler to set up routes and connect your instance of the Media Store to your Cloudinary account.

Import isAuthorized from tina-cloud-next.

The authorized key will make it so only authorized users within Tina Cloud can upload and make media edits.

//[...media].ts

import {
  mediaHandlerConfig,
  createMediaHandler,
} from "next-tinacms-cloudinary/dist/handlers"

import { isAuthorized } from "tina-cloud-next"


export const config = mediaHandlerConfig

export default createMediaHandler({
  cloud_name: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME,
  api_key: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_CLOUDINARY_API_KEY,
  api_secret: process.env.CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET,
  authorized: async (req, _res) => {
    try {
      const user = await isAuthorized(req)

      return user && user.verified
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(e)
      return false
    }
  },
})

Update Schema

Now that the media store is registered and the API route for media set up, let's add an image to your schema.

In your .tina/schema.ts add a new field for the image, e.g:

 {
  name: 'hero',
  type: 'image',
  label: 'Hero Image',
 }

Now, when editing your site, the image field will allow you to connect to your Cloudinary account via the Media Store to manage your media assets.
