This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.
Create a .env.local file in the root directory with the following variables:
# Database
DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/dbname"
# NextAuth
NEXTAUTH_SECRET="your-nextauth-secret-here"
NEXTAUTH_URL="http://localhost:3000"
# Google OAuth (for Google sign-in)
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID="your-google-client-id"
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET="your-google-client-secret"
# Gmail SMTP Configuration (for sending OTP emails)
# IMPORTANT: You MUST use a Gmail App Password, not your regular password!
GMAIL_USER="your-email@gmail.com"
GMAIL_APP_PASSWORD="your-16-character-app-password"
# Geoapify API (for location autocomplete)
# Get your API key from https://www.geoapify.com/get-started-with-maps-api
GEOAPIFY_API_KEY="your-geoapify-api-key"To fix the "Username and Password not accepted" error, you need to use a Gmail App Password:
- Go to your Google Account
- Enable 2-Step Verification (if not already enabled)
- Go to App Passwords
- Select "Mail" as the app and "Other" as the device
- Enter a name (e.g., "Navigate Roles App")
- Click "Generate"
- Copy the 16-character password (it will look like:
abcd efgh ijkl mnop) - Remove all spaces and use it as
GMAIL_APP_PASSWORDin your.env.localfile - Restart your development server
Note: If you're using your regular Gmail password instead of an App Password, authentication will fail with error code 535.
First, run the development server:
npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
