Headless Statamic & Astro

Statamic is a modern, flat-file CMS. It allows developers to easily create dynamic websites and applications while offering content editors an intuitive and user-friendly interface for managing content.

Integrating with Astro

Section titled Integrating with Astro

Statamic comes with a built-in REST API and GraphQL API to connect your data to Astro.

Prerequisites

Section titled Prerequisites

To get started, you will need to have the following:

1. REST API and GraphQL API are only available in a pro version of Statamic. You can try the Pro version free on your local machine.
2. An Astro project - If you still need an Astro project, our Installation guide will get you up and running quickly.
3. A Statamic site - If you need a Statamic website, this guide will help you get started. Remember to enable REST API or GraphQL API by adding STATAMIC_API_ENABLED=true or STATAMIC_GRAPHQL_ENABLED=true in the .env file and enable required resources in the API configuration file.

Caution

All the examples assume that your website has a collection called posts, that has a blueprint called post, and this blueprint has a title field (fieldtype text) and content (fieldtype markdown).

Fetching Data

Section titled Fetching Data

Caution

If you are using Statamic and Astro on your local machine remember to use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost when fetching the API.

When requesting from the Astro server localhost doesn’t resolve correctly like it does in the browser, and any fetch to either API will fail.

REST API

Section titled REST API

Fetch your Statamic data from your site’s REST API URL. By default, it’s https://[YOUR-SITE]/api/. Then, you can render your data properties using Astro’s set:html={} directive.

For example, to display a list of titles and their content from a selected collection:

"src/pages/index.astro

---
const res = await fetch("https://[YOUR-SITE]/api/collections/posts/entries?sort=-date")
const posts = await res.json()
---
<h1>Astro + Statamic 🚀</h1>
{
  posts.map((post) => (
      <h2 set:html={post.title} />
      <p set:html={post.content} />
  ))
}

GraphQL

Section titled GraphQL

Fetch your Statamic data with your site’s GraphQL API URL. By default, it’s https://[YOUR-SITE]/graphql/. Then, you can render your data properties using Astro’s set:html={} directive.

For example, to display a list of titles and their content from a selected collection:

"src/pages/index.astro

---
const graphqlQuery = {
  query: `
    query Entries($page: Int, $locale: String) {
      entries(
        collection: "posts"
        sort: "date asc"
        limit: 20
        page: $page
        filter: { locale: $locale }
      ) {
        current_page
        has_more_pages
        data {
          title
          ... on Entry_Posts_Post {
              content
            }
        }
      }
    }
  `,
  variables: {
    page: page,
    locale: locale,
  },
};

const res = await fetch("https://[YOUR-SITE]/graphql", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify(graphqlQuery),
})

const { data } = await res.json();
const entries = data?.entries;
---
<h1>Astro + Statamic 🚀</h1>
{
  entries.data.map((post) => (
      <h2 set:html={post.title} />
      <p set:html={post.content} />
  ))
}
