I've got following next.config.js
module.exports = {
dir: "src",
outDir: "./build"
};
When I run next build; next export; my static files end up in newly created out folder.
I thought outDir overwrites that, but apparently not. So is there a way to tell next to output static files into build folder as opposed to out

next export allows you to export your Next. js application to static HTML, which can be run standalone without the need of a Node. js server. It is recommended to only use next export if you don't need any of the unsupported features requiring a server.
Launch the app and then choose your out/build/dist folder and then it will provide you a link, just navigate to the given link. next. js creates the . next directory instead of build .
The static export is an advanced OpenCms feature, that allows to gain an important performance improvement by mirroring pages and other resources into the real file system of the server.
Next. js has two forms of pre-rendering: Static Generation and Server-side Rendering. The difference is in when it generates the HTML for a page. Static Generation (Recommended): The HTML is generated at build time and will be reused on each request.
Update your build script in package.json to use next export: Running npm run build will generate an out directory. next export builds an HTML version of your app. During next build, getStaticProps and getStaticPaths will generate an HTML file for each page in your pages directory (or more for dynamic routes ).
It is recommended to only use next export if you don't need any of the unsupported features requiring a server. If you're looking to build a hybrid site where only some pages are prerendered to static HTML, Next.js already does that automatically. Learn more about Automatic Static Optimization and Incremental Static Regeneration.
Back in the early days of Windows XP, I came across this really neat batch file that allowed users to export selected directory/folder contents listing to a txt file from Windows Explorer right-click context menu.
Open next.config.js and add the following exportPathMap config: Note: the query field in exportPathMap cannot be used with automatically statically optimized pages or getStaticProps pages as they are rendered to HTML files at build-time and additional query information cannot be provided during next export.
From the docs:
Absolute path to the out/ directory (configurable with -o or --outdir
You can run:
next export -o build/
to redirect the build to build directory.
