Jobs List

Setting up the Jobs Collection in Directus

Before we can start fetching and displaying job listings, we need to define the data model that will store our job data in Directus.

Log in to your Directus app and navigate to Settings > Data Model. Click the + icon to create a new collection called "jobs".

Add the following fields and save:

title (Type: String, Interface: Input)
identifier (Type: String, Interface: Input)
company (Type: String, Interface: Input)
website (Type: String, Interface: Input)
location (Type: String, Interface: Input)
logo (Type: UUID, Interface: Image)
tags (Type: JSON, Interface: Tags)
remote (Type: Boolean, Interface: Toggle)
datePosted (Type: DateTime, Interface: DateTime)
salaryRange (Type: String, Interface: Input)
content (Type: Text, Interface: WYSIWYG)
note (Type: String, Interface: Input)

Adding Content to the Jobs Collection

With the data model in place, we're now ready to populate our collection with some real job listings.

From the Directus sidebar, navigate to "Content Module" and select the "Jobs" collection we created earlier.

Go ahead and add a few sample jobs to have content to work with as we build out the frontend interface. You can always come back later to enter more postings as needed.

Building the Frontend Application - Getting Started

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.
