What is Wagtail Gatsby

Wagatil Gatsby is an experimental library for intergrating Gatsby and Wagtail CMS (in conjunction with Wagtail Grapple). It provides the three features:

• Detect when pages are published and send a POST request to a desired HTTP endpoint (Netlify, Travis CI, etc).
• Creates a ModelAdmin that allows you to manually deploy to your frontend host.
• Gatsby Image processing (Now Deprecated, Please see gatsby-source-wagatil's repo on local image processing).

Install

• Install package via PIP:

https://pypi.org/project/wagtailgatsby/

• Add to INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [

Publishing Triggers

To have your frontend triggered when a pageis published inside of Wagtail add the following to your base.py

GATSBY_AUTO_DEPLOY = env.get("GATSBY_AUTO_DEPLOY", True)
GATSBY_TRIGGER_URL = env.get("GATSBY_TRIGGER_URL", "SOME-NETLIFY-URL"
