This adapter allows Astro to deploy your SSR site to Netlify.

Learn how to deploy your Astro site in our Netlify deployment guide.

If you’re using Astro as a static site builder—its behavior out of the box—you don’t need an adapter.

If you wish to use server-side rendering (SSR), Astro requires an adapter that matches your deployment runtime.

Netlify is a deployment platform that allows you to host your site by connecting directly to your GitHub repository. This adapter enhances the Astro build process to prepare your project for deployment through Netlify.

Add the Netlify adapter to enable SSR in your Astro project with the following astro add command. This will install the adapter and make the appropriate changes to your astro.config.mjs file in one step.

Terminal window
# Using NPM
npx astro add netlify
# Using Yarn
yarn astro add netlify
# Using PNPM
pnpm astro add netlify

If you prefer to install the adapter manually instead, complete the following two steps:

  1. Install the Netlify adapter to your project’s dependencies using your preferred package manager. If you’re using npm or aren’t sure, run this in the terminal:

    Terminal window
    npm install @astrojs/netlify
  2. Add two new lines to your astro.config.mjs project configuration file.

    astro.config.mjs
    import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
    import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/functions';
    export default defineConfig({
    output: 'server',
    adapter: netlify(),
    });

Run middleware in Edge Functions

Section titled Run middleware in Edge Functions

When deploying to Netlify Functions, you can choose to use an Edge Function to run your Astro middleware.

To enable this, set the edgeMiddleware config option to true:

astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/functions';
export default defineConfig({
output: 'server',
adapter: netlify({
edgeMiddleware: true,
}),
});

Pass edge context to your site

Section titled Pass edge context to your site

Netlify Edge Functions provide a context object including metadata about the request, such as a user’s IP, geolocation data, and cookies.

To expose values from this context to your site, create a netlify-edge-middleware.ts (or .js) file in your project’s source directory. This file must export a function that returns the data to add to Astro’s locals object, which is available in middleware and Astro routes.

In this example, visitorCountry and hasEdgeMiddleware would both be added to Astro’s locals object:

src/netlify-edge-middleware.ts
import type { Context } from 'https://edge.netlify.com';
export default function ({ request, context }: { request: Request; context: Context }) {
// Return serializable data to add to Astro.locals
return {
visitorCountry: context.geo.country.name,
hasEdgeMiddleware: true,
};
}

netlify-edge-middleware.ts must provide a function as its default export. This function:

  • must return a JSON-serializable object, which cannot include types like Map, function, Set, etc.
  • will always run first, before any other middleware and routes.
  • cannot return a response or redirect.

The Netlify adapter builds to a single function by default. Astro 2.7 added support for splitting your build into separate entry points per page. If you use this configuration, the Netlify adapter will generate a separate function for each page. This can help reduce the size of each function so they are only bundling code used on that page.

astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/functions';
export default defineConfig({
output: 'server',
adapter: netlify({
functionPerRoute: true,
}),
});

For static sites you usually don’t need an adapter. However, if you use redirects configuration in your Astro config, the Netlify adapter can be used to translate this to the proper _redirects format.

astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/static';
export default defineConfig({
adapter: netlify(),
redirects: {
'/blog/old-post': '/blog/new-post',
},
});

Once you run astro build there will be a dist/_redirects file. Netlify will use that to properly route pages in production.

Netlify On-demand Builders are serverless functions used to generate web content as needed that’s automatically cached on Netlify’s Edge CDN. You can enable these functions using the builders configuration.

By default, all pages will be rendered on first visit and the rendered result will be reused for every subsequent visit until you redeploy. To set a revalidation time, call the runtime.setBuildersTtl(ttl) local with the duration (in seconds).

The following example sets a revalidation time of 45, causing Netlify to store the rendered HTML for 45 seconds.

src/pages/index.astro
---
import Layout from '../components/Layout.astro';
if (import.meta.env.PROD) {
Astro.locals.runtime.setBuildersTtl(45);
}
---
<Layout title="Astro on Netlify">
{new Date(Date.now())}
</Layout>

It is important to note that On-demand Builders ignore query params when checking for cached pages. For example, if example.com/?x=y is cached, it will be served for example.com/?a=b (different query params) and example.com/ (no query params) as well.

Read the full deployment guide here.

After performing a build the netlify/ folder will contain Netlify Functions in the netlify/functions/ folder.

Now you can deploy. Install the Netlify CLI and run:

Terminal window
netlify deploy --build

The Netlify Blog post on Astro and the Netlify Documentation provide more information on how to use this integration to deploy to Netlify.

To configure this adapter, pass an object to the netlify() function call in astro.config.mjs - there’s only one possible configuration option:

We build to the dist directory at the base of your project. To change this, use the dist option:

astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/functions';
export default defineConfig({
output: 'server',
adapter: netlify({
dist: new URL('./dist/', import.meta.url),
}),
});

And then point to the dist in your netlify.toml:

netlify.toml
[functions]
directory = "dist/functions"

You can enable On-demand Builders using the builders option:

astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import netlify from '@astrojs/netlify/functions';
export default defineConfig({
output: 'server',
adapter: netlify({
builders: true,
}),
});

On-demand Builders are only available with the @astrojs/netlify/functions adapter and are not compatible with Edge Functions.

This option is only needed for the Functions adapter and is not needed for Edge Functions.

Netlify Functions requires binary data in the body to be base64 encoded. The @astrojs/netlify/functions adapter handles this automatically based on the Content-Type header.

We check for common mime types for audio, image, and video files. To include specific mime types that should be treated as binary data, include the binaryMediaTypes option with a list of binary mime types.

src/pages/image.jpg.ts
import fs from 'node:fs';
export function GET() {
const buffer = fs.readFileSync('../image.jpg');
// Return the buffer directly, @astrojs/netlify will base64 encode the body
return new Response(buffer, {
status: 200,
headers: {
'content-type': 'image/jpeg',
},
});
}
