I am trying to implement the following design. Read data from a file (xml) at server startup and have it available as in memory variables to be used in the backend api for certain calculations. This data never changes thus it only need to be read once.
I am getting alot of module not found errors as I believe from what I read is that FS functions should only be done on the server side using getStaticProps
But this will trigger the read request every time a client loads the page. Can someone guide me with a simple example on how to do this so that the data is read once and usable in the back end server side modules for calculations
Thanks
