Hi @drifting garden. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
#how do i get the hostname inside generateMetadata

Based on the information provided in the extracts, it seems like you're using a custom server setup with Next.js. In the custom server setup, the hostname is defined in the server.js file as shown in the extract from the Next.js documentation on custom servers (https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/configuring/custom-server):
const dev = process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'
const hostname = 'localhost'
const port = 3000
// when using middleware `hostname` and `port` must be provided below
const app = next({ dev, hostname, port })
In this example, hostname is set to 'localhost' when running in development mode. However, when you build your application for production, the NODE_ENV variable is set to 'production', and if you haven't defined a hostname for the production environment, it could result in hostname being undefined.
To fix this, you need to ensure that a hostname is defined for the production environment. You can do this by setting an environment variable in your production environment or by providing a fallback value in your code. For example:
const dev = process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'
const hostname = process.env.HOSTNAME || 'localhost'
const port = 3000
const app = next({ dev, hostname, port })
In this example, hostname will be set to the value of the HOSTNAME environment variable if it's defined, otherwise it will fallback to 'localhost'.
Remember to restart your server after making these changes to ensure they are applied. If you're still having issues, it might be helpful to check the Next.js documentation (https://nextjs.org/docs) or the Vercel documentation (https://vercel.com/docs) for more information.
Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
