StudioCMS Config

Available Options

'Read the “', Available Options, '” section'

There are two ways to configure the StudioCMS Integration, below are examples of how to configure based on if you choose to use the astro.config.mjs or the dedicated studiocms.config.mjs file.

This page shows you how and where to define the StudioCMS Config. For more information on the StudioCMS config options, see the Reference pages.

Using the astro.config.mjs file:

Your final, deployed URL. Astro uses this full URL to generate your sitemap and canonical URLs in your final build. It is strongly recommended that you set this configuration to get the most out of Astro.

@description 
Specifies the output target for builds.


    

  • 'static' - Prerender all your pages by default, outputting a completely static site if none of your pages opt out of prerendering.
    • 

  • 'server' - Use server-side rendering (SSR) for all pages by default, always outputting a server-rendered site.

@description 
Deploy to your favorite server, serverless, or edge host with build adapters. Import one of our first-party adapters for Netlify, Vercel, and more to engage Astro SSR.

adapter: 
function node(userOptions: UserOptions): AstroIntegration

Specifies the mode that the adapter builds to.


    

  • 'middleware' - Build to middleware, to be used within another Node.js server, such as Express.
    • 

  • 'standalone' - Build to a standalone server. The server starts up just by running the built script.

@name ― integrations
@description 
Extend Astro with custom integrations. Integrations are your one-stop-shop for adding framework support (like Solid.js), new features (like sitemaps), and new libraries (like Partytown).
