`authMiddleware` deprecated - Clerk

The authMiddleware API from @clerk/nextjs has been marked as deprecated. We highly recommend using clerkMiddleware going forward. clerkMiddleware protects no routes by default and you need to add your individual routes you want to opt into protection. Here's an example of having all routes public except for everything under /dashboard.

For more documentation on the new clerkMiddleware function, check out our official docs!

Before:

// middleware.ts

import { authMiddleware } from '@clerk/nextjs';

export default authMiddleware({
  publicRoutes: req => !req.url.includes('/dashboard'),
});

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!.+\\.[\\w]+$|_next).*)', '/', '/(api|trpc)(.*)'],
};

After:

// middleware.ts

import { clerkMiddleware, createRouteMatcher } from '@clerk/nextjs/server';
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

const isProtectedRoute = createRouteMatcher(['/dashboard(.*)']);

export default clerkMiddleware((auth, request) => {
  if (isProtectedRoute(request)) {
    auth().protect();
  }

  return NextResponse.next();
});

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!.*\\..*|_next).*)', '/', '/(api|trpc)(.*)'],
};
