A starter for Gatsby integrations that use Silverstripe CMS as a data source

Gatsby starter for Silverstripe CMS

Before you start

Make sure you have the silverstripe-gatsby module installed on your Silverstripe backend.

🚀 Quick start

1. Create a Gatsby site.

   Use the Gatsby CLI to create a new site, specifying the default starter.

   # create a new Gatsby site using the Silverstripe CMS starter
   gatsby new my-silverstripe-starter https://github.com/silverstripe/gatsby-starter-silverstripe

2. Configure

yarn setup

3. Start me up

Navigate into your new site’s directory and start it up.

cd my-silverstripe-starter/
yarn develop

4. Open the source code and start editing!

   You should now see your Silverstripe CMS website in a default theme running at http://localhost:8000!

   Note: You'll also see a second link: http://localhost:8000/___graphql. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the Gatsby tutorial.

   Open the my-silverstripe-starter directory in your code editor of choice and edit src/pages/index.js. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!
