Quick Start

Install

npm install nanocrawl-sdk

Setup

Create one file in your Next.js project root:

proxy.ts

// Next.js 16+  (use middleware.ts for Next.js 14-15)
import { withNanocrawl } from 'nanocrawl-sdk'

export const proxy = withNanocrawl({
  sellerWallet: process.env.SELLER_WALLET,
  redisUrl: process.env.REDIS_URL,

  pricing: { '/blog': 0.001, '/products': 0.002 },
  defaultPrice: 0.001,
  freeRoutes: ['/', '/about'],

  volumeTiers: [
    { after: 10, discount: 0.20 },
    { after: 50, discount: 0.40 },
  ],
})

export const config = { matcher: ['/((?!_next|favicon).*)'] }
