AI Content Writer Tool

Introduction

Content generation tool designed to assist users in creating high-quality social media posts, blog entries, and other content types efficiently. Utilizing advanced AI models, the platform offers a variety of customization options to match the user's style and preferences.

Quickstart Guide

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/1811-Labs-LLC/BuilderKit-Starter.git [YOUR_APP_NAME]
 
cd [YOUR_APP_NAME]
 
git checkout content-writer

Remove the origin remote to ensure that you can work locally without pushing the changes back to the original repository.

git remote remove origin

However, note that after removing the remote, you won't be able to switch between the branches, so you'll need to clone the repository again if you want to work on another branch.

2. Install dependencies:

   terminal

   npm install

3. Environment Variables:

   Copy the required variables from .env.example to .env.local as mentioned and update the values.

   terminal

   cp .env.example .env.local

   Or, manually create a .env.local file in the root directory with the following env variables (make sure to update the values with your actual keys):

   .env.local

   # Host
   NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL=<your-app-url>
    
   # Supabase
   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=<your-supabase-url>
   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=<your-supabase-anon-key>
   SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=<your-supabase-service-role-key>
    
   # OpenAI
   OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-openai-api-key>
    
   # Lemon Squeezy
   LEMON_SQUEZY_BASE_URL=<your-lemonsqueezy-base-url>
   LEMON_SQUEEZY_API_KEY=<your-lemonsqueezy-api-key>

   NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_KEY=<your-google-analytics-key>

Setup Supabase

Create Content Writer Table in Supabase:

-- Create a table for AI Content Creation
create table content_creations (
   id uuid not null default uuid_generate_v4(),
   created_at timestamp with time zone not null default now(),
   user_id uuid null,
   topic text not null,
   style text not null,
   word_limit text not null,
   voice text not null,
   results text not null,
   constraint content_creations_pkey primary key (id),
   constraint content_creations_user_id_fkey foreign key (user_id) references users (id)
);
 
-- Set up Row Level Security (RLS)
alter table content_creations
enable row level security;
 
create policy "Users can insert their own row." on content_creations
   for insert with check (true);
 
create policy "Users can update own row" on content_creations
   for update using (auth.uid() = user_id);
 
create policy "Users can read own row" on content_creations
   for select using (auth.uid() = user_id);
 
create policy "Users can delete own row" on content_creations
   for delete using (auth.uid() = user_id);

For all the tables, we enable the RLS policy by default with necessary permissions as mentioned in the script.

Configure Payments & Webhook

BuilderKit supports both Lemon Squeezy & Stripe as the payment method. You can either use both (current state) or use any specific payment method as per your requirements.

LEMON_SQUEZY_BASE_URL=your_lemon_squeezy_base_url
LEMON_SQUEEZY_API_KEY=your_lemon_squeezy_api_key
LEMON_SQUEEZY_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_lemon_squeezy_webhook_secret

const config = {
  // ...
  lemonSqueezy: {
    baseUrl: "https://builderkit.lemonsqueezy.com/buy",
    emailParam: "checkout[email]",
    discountParam: "checkout[discount_code]",
    variant: {
      standard: {
        monthly: "81395ea4-4049-49a7-a11e-3ccdf620ce7e",
        annually: "feb7cf4b-d0e0-4f04-a4e9-55d4415824ff",
      },
      premium: {
        monthly: "eb0503cb-a58a-4a30-8fdf-86fa977bd3cb",
        annually: "cde373b7-1619-4788-9e6b-664ba048f693",
      },
    },
    plan: {
      245697: "standard",
      245701: "premium",
    },
  },
  // ...
};

Running the Application

1. Run the development server:

   terminal

   npm run dev

   This will start the development server on http://localhost:3000 (opens in a new tab).

2. Build for production:

   terminal

   npm run build

   This command compiles the application for production usage.

3. Start the production server:

   terminal

   npm start

   This will start the application in production mode.

Additional Scripts

• Prepare Husky for Git hooks:

  This script sets up Husky, which enables Git hooks in the project. Git hooks allow you to run scripts automatically before certain Git events (like committing code), which helps maintain code quality by enforcing checks before code is committed.

  terminal

  npm run prepare

• Validate the code with Linting, Formatting & Typecheck:

  This script runs linting, formatting checks, and type checking in a single command. It's a convenient way to ensure your code meets the project's quality standards before pushing changes or deploying.

  terminal

  npm run validate

Make the tool publicly accessible by removing the login process

1. Go to src/app/(dashboard)/layout.tsx and comment the following section from line:15 to line:20 as shown in the image below:

   

2. Also, go to src/app/api/generate/route.tsx and comment the following section from line:12 to line:17 as shown in the image below:

   

These sections reads the user data and checks if the user is signed in or not. By commenting this section it does not check the user validation.
