Cosmic & Astro

このコンテンツはまだ日本語訳がありません。

Cosmic is a headless CMS that provides an admin dashboard to manage content and an API that can integrate with a diverse range of frontend tools.

Prerequisites

An Astro project- If you’d like to start with a fresh Astro project, read the installation guide. This guide follows a simplified version of the Astro Headless CMS Theme with Tailwind CSS for styling.
A Cosmic account and Bucket - Create a free Cosmic account if you don’t have one. After creating your account, you’ll be prompted to create a new empty project. There’s also a Simple Astro Blog template available (this is the same template as the Astro Headless CMS Theme) to automatically import all of the content used in this guide.
Your Cosmic API keys - From your Cosmic dasboard, you will need to locate both the Bucket slug and Bucket read key in order to connect to Cosmic.

Integrating Cosmic with Astro

Installing Necessary Dependencies

Add the Cosmic JavaScript SDK to fetch data from your Cosmic Bucket.

npm install @cosmicjs/sdk

pnpm add @cosmicjs/sdk

yarn add @cosmicjs/sdk

Configuring API Keys

Create a .env file at the root of your Astro project (if it does not already exist). Add both the Bucket slug and Bucket read key available from your Cosmic dashboard as public environment variables.

PUBLIC_COSMIC_BUCKET_SLUG=YOUR_BUCKET_SLUG
PUBLIC_COSMIC_READ_KEY=YOUR_READ_KEY

Fetching Data from Cosmic

Create a new file called cosmic.js. Place this file inside of the src/lib folder in your project.

Add the following code to fetch data from Cosmic using the SDK and your environment variables.

The example below creates a function called getAllPosts() to fetch metadata from Cosmic posts objects:

import { createBucketClient } from '@cosmicjs/sdk'

const cosmic = createBucketClient({
  bucketSlug: import.meta.env.PUBLIC_COSMIC_BUCKET_SLUG,
  readKey: import.meta.env.PUBLIC_COSMIC_READ_KEY
})

export async function getAllPosts() {
  const data = await cosmic.objects
    .find({
      type: 'posts'
    })
    .props('title,slug,metadata,created_at')
  return data.objects
}

Read more about queries in the Cosmic documentation.

Import your query function in a .astro component. After fetching data, the results from the query can be used in your Astro template.

The following example shows fetching metadata from Cosmic posts and passing these values as props to a <Card /> component to create a list of blog posts:

---
import Card from '../components/Card.astro'
import { getAllPosts } from '../lib/cosmic'

const data = await getAllPosts()
---

<section>
  <ul class="grid gap-8 md:grid-cols-2">
    {
      data.map((post) => (
        <Card
          title={post.title}
          href={post.slug}
          body={post.metadata.excerpt}
          tags={post.metadata.tags.map((tag) => tag)}
        />
      ))
    }
  </ul>
</section>

Building a Blog with Astro and Cosmic

You can manage your Astro blog’s content using Cosmic and create webhooks to automatically redeploy your website when you update or add new content.

Cosmic Content Objects

The following instructions assume that you have an Object Type in Cosmic called posts. Each individual blog post is a post that is defined in the Cosmic dashboard with the following Metafields:

Text input - Author
Image - Cover Image
Repeater - Tags
- Text input - Title
Text area - Excerpt
Rich Text - Content

Displaying a List of Blog Posts in Astro

Using the same data-fetching method as above, import the getAllPosts() query from your script file and await the data. This function provides metadata about each post which can be displayed dynamically.

The example below passes these values to a <Card /> component to display a formatted list of blog posts:

---
import Card from '../components/Card.astro'
import { getAllPosts } from '../lib/cosmic'

const data = await getAllPosts()
---

<section>
  <ul class="grid gap-8 md:grid-cols-2">
    {
      data.map((post) => (
        <Card
          title={post.title}
          href={post.slug}
          body={post.metadata.excerpt}
          tags={post.metadata.tags.map((tag) => tag)}
        />
      ))
    }
  </ul>
</section>

Generating Individual Blog Posts with Astro

To generate an individual page with full content for each blog post, create a dynamic routing page at src/pages/blog/[slug].astro.

This page will export a getStaticPaths() function to generate a page route at the slug returned from each post object. This function is called at build time and generates and renders all of your blog posts at once.

To access your data from Cosmic:

Query Cosmic inside of getStaticPaths() to fetch data about each post and provide it to the function.
Use each post.slug as a route parameter, creating the URLs for each blog post.
Return each post inside of Astro.props, making the post data available to HTML template portion of the page component for rendering.

The HTML markup below uses various data from Cosmic, such as the post title, cover image, and the rich text content (full blog post content). Use set:html on the element displaying the rich text content from Cosmic to render HTML elements on the page exactly as fetched from Cosmic.

---
import { getAllPosts } from '../../lib/cosmic'
import { Image } from 'astro:assets'

export async function getStaticPaths() {
  const data = (await getAllPosts()) || []

  return data.map((post) => {
    return {
      params: { slug: post.slug },
      props: { post }
    }
  })
}

const { post } = Astro.props
---

<article class="mx-auto max-w-screen-md pt-20">
  <section class="border-b pb-8">
    <h1 class="text-4xl font-bold">{post.title}</h1>
    <div class="my-4"></div>
    <span class="text-sm font-semibold">{post.metadata.author?.title}</span>
  </section>
  {
    post.metadata.cover_image && (
      <Image
        src={post.metadata.cover_image.imgix_url}
        format="webp"
        width={1200}
        height={675}
        aspectRatio={16 / 9}
        quality={50}
        alt={`Cover image for the blog ${post.title}`}
        class={'my-12 rounded-md shadow-lg'}
      />
    )
  }
  <div set:html={post.metadata.content} />
</article>
