Configuration Reference
यह कंटेंट अभी तक आपकी भाषा में उपलब्ध नहीं है।
The following reference covers all supported configuration options in Astro. To learn more about configuring Astro, read our guide on Configuring Astro.
Top-Level Options
root
Type: string
CLI: --root
Default: "."
(current working directory)
You should only provide this option if you run the astro
CLI commands in a directory other than the project root directory. Usually, this option is provided via the CLI instead of the Astro config file, since Astro needs to know your project root before it can locate your config file.
If you provide a relative path (ex: --root: './my-project'
) Astro will resolve it against your current working directory.
Examples
srcDir
Type: string
Default: "./src"
Set the directory that Astro will read your site from.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
publicDir
Type: string
Default: "./public"
Set the directory for your static assets. Files in this directory are served at /
during dev and copied to your build directory during build. These files are always served or copied as-is, without transform or bundling.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
outDir
Type: string
Default: "./dist"
Set the directory that astro build
writes your final build to.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
See Also:
- build.server
cacheDir
Type: string
Default: "./node_modules/.astro"
Set the directory for caching build artifacts. Files in this directory will be used in subsequent builds to speed up the build time.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
redirects
Type: Record.<string, RedirectConfig>
Default: {}
astro@2.9.0
Specify a mapping of redirects where the key is the route to match and the value is the path to redirect to.
You can redirect both static and dynamic routes, but only to the same kind of route.
For example you cannot have a '/article': '/blog/[...slug]'
redirect.
For statically-generated sites with no adapter installed, this will produce a client redirect using a <meta http-equiv="refresh">
tag and does not support status codes.
When using SSR or with a static adapter in output: static
mode, status codes are supported.
Astro will serve redirected GET requests with a status of 301
and use a status of 308
for any other request method.
You can customize the redirection status code using an object in the redirect config:
site
Type: string
Your final, deployed URL. Astro uses this full URL to generate your sitemap and canonical URLs in your final build. It is strongly recommended that you set this configuration to get the most out of Astro.
compressHTML
Type: boolean
Default: true
This is an option to minify your HTML output and reduce the size of your HTML files. By default, Astro removes all whitespace from your HTML, including line breaks, from .astro
components. This occurs both in development mode and in the final build.
To disable HTML compression, set the compressHTML
flag to false
.
base
Type: string
The base path to deploy to. Astro will use this path as the root for your pages and assets both in development and in production build.
In the example below, astro dev
will start your server at /docs
.
When using this option, all of your static asset imports and URLs should add the base as a prefix. You can access this value via import.meta.env.BASE_URL
.
The value of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
will be determined by your trailingSlash
config, no matter what value you have set for base
.
A trailing slash is always included if trailingSlash: "always"
is set. If trailingSlash: "never"
is set, BASE_URL
will not include a trailing slash, even if base
includes one.
Additionally, Astro will internally manipulate the configured value of config.base
before making it available to integrations. The value of config.base
as read by integrations will also be determined by your trailingSlash
configuration in the same way.
In the example below, the values of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
and config.base
when processed will both be /docs
:
In the example below, the values of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
and config.base
when processed will both be /docs/
:
trailingSlash
Type: 'always' | 'never' | 'ignore'
Default: 'ignore'
Set the route matching behavior of the dev server. Choose from the following options:
'always'
- Only match URLs that include a trailing slash (ex: “/foo/“)'never'
- Never match URLs that include a trailing slash (ex: “/foo”)'ignore'
- Match URLs regardless of whether a trailing ”/” exists
Use this configuration option if your production host has strict handling of how trailing slashes work or do not work.
You can also set this if you prefer to be more strict yourself, so that URLs with or without trailing slashes won’t work during development.
See Also:
- build.format
scopedStyleStrategy
Type: 'where' | 'class' | 'attribute'
Default: 'attribute'
astro@2.4
Specify the strategy used for scoping styles within Astro components. Choose from:
'where'
- Use:where
selectors, causing no specificity increase.'class'
- Use class-based selectors, causing a +1 specificity increase.'attribute'
- Usedata-
attributes, causing a +1 specificity increase.
Using 'class'
is helpful when you want to ensure that element selectors within an Astro component override global style defaults (e.g. from a global stylesheet).
Using 'where'
gives you more control over specificity, but requires that you use higher-specificity selectors, layers, and other tools to control which selectors are applied.
Using 'attribute'
is useful when you are manipulating the class
attribute of elements and need to avoid conflicts between your own styling logic and Astro’s application of styles.
adapter
Type: AstroIntegration
Deploy to your favorite server, serverless, or edge host with build adapters. Import one of our first-party adapters for Netlify, Vercel, and more to engage Astro SSR.
See our Server-side Rendering guide for more on SSR, and our deployment guides for a complete list of hosts.
See Also:
- output
output
Type: 'static' | 'server' | 'hybrid'
Default: 'static'
Specifies the output target for builds.
'static'
- Building a static site to be deploy to any static host.'server'
- Building an app to be deployed to a host supporting SSR (server-side rendering).'hybrid'
- Building a static site with a few server-side rendered pages.

Build Options
build.format
Type: ('file' | 'directory')
Default: 'directory'
Control the output file format of each page.
- If
'file'
, Astro will generate an HTML file (ex: “/foo.html”) for each page. - If
'directory'
, Astro will generate a directory with a nestedindex.html
file (ex: “/foo/index.html”) for each page.
Effect on Astro.url
Setting build.format
controls what Astro.url
is set to during the build. When it is:
directory
- TheAstro.url.pathname
will include a trailing slash to mimic folder behavior; ie/foo/
.file
- TheAstro.url.pathname
will include.html
; ie/foo.html
.
This means that when you create relative URLs using new URL('./relative', Astro.url)
, you will get consistent behavior between dev and build.
To prevent inconsistencies with trailing slash behaviour in dev, you can restrict the trailingSlash
option to 'always'
or 'never'
depending on your build format:
directory
- SettrailingSlash: 'always'
file
- SettrailingSlash: 'never'
build.client
Type: string
Default: './dist/client'
Controls the output directory of your client-side CSS and JavaScript when output: 'server'
or output: 'hybrid'
only.
outDir
controls where the code is built to.
This value is relative to the outDir
.
build.server
Type: string
Default: './dist/server'
Controls the output directory of server JavaScript when building to SSR.
This value is relative to the outDir
.
build.assets
Type: string
Default: '_astro'
astro@2.0.0
Specifies the directory in the build output where Astro-generated assets (bundled JS and CSS for example) should live.
See Also:
- outDir
build.assetsPrefix
Type: string
Default: undefined
astro@2.2.0
Specifies the prefix for Astro-generated asset links. This can be used if assets are served from a different domain than the current site.
For example, if this is set to https://cdn.example.com
, assets will be fetched from https://cdn.example.com/_astro/...
(regardless of the base
option).
You would need to upload the files in ./dist/_astro/
to https://cdn.example.com/_astro/
to serve the assets.
The process varies depending on how the third-party domain is hosted.
To rename the _astro
path, specify a new directory in build.assets
.
build.serverEntry
Type: string
Default: 'entry.mjs'
Specifies the file name of the server entrypoint when building to SSR. This entrypoint is usually dependent on which host you are deploying to and will be set by your adapter for you.
Note that it is recommended that this file ends with .mjs
so that the runtime
detects that the file is a JavaScript module.
build.redirects
Type: boolean
Default: true
astro@2.6.0
Specifies whether redirects will be output to HTML during the build.
This option only applies to output: 'static'
mode; in SSR redirects
are treated the same as all responses.
This option is mostly meant to be used by adapters that have special configuration files for redirects and do not need/want HTML based redirects.
build.inlineStylesheets
Type: 'always' | 'auto' | 'never'
Default: auto
astro@2.6.0
Control whether project styles are sent to the browser in a separate css file or inlined into <style>
tags. Choose from the following options:
'always'
- project styles are inlined into<style>
tags'auto'
- only stylesheets smaller thanViteConfig.build.assetsInlineLimit
(default: 4kb) are inlined. Otherwise, project styles are sent in external stylesheets.'never'
- project styles are sent in external stylesheets
build.split
Deprecated since version 3.0.
Type: boolean
Default: false
The build config option build.split
has been replaced by the adapter configuration option functionPerRoute
.
Please see your SSR adapter’s documentation for using functionPerRoute
to define how your SSR code is bundled.
build.excludeMiddleware
Deprecated since version 3.0.
Type: boolean
Default: false
The build config option build.excludeMiddleware
has been replaced by the adapter configuration option edgeMiddleware
.
Please see your SSR adapter’s documentation for using edgeMiddleware
to define whether or not any SSR middleware code will be bundled when built.
Prefetch Options
Type: boolean | object
Enable prefetching for links on your site to provide faster page transitions.
(Enabled by default on pages using the <ViewTransitions />
router. Set prefetch: false
to opt out of this behaviour.)
This configuration automatically adds a prefetch script to every page in the project
giving you access to the data-astro-prefetch
attribute.
Add this attribute to any <a />
link on your page to enable prefetching for that page.
Further customize the default prefetching behavior using the prefetch.defaultStrategy
and prefetch.prefetchAll
options.
See the Prefetch guide for more information.
prefetch.prefetchAll
Type: boolean
Enable prefetching for all links, including those without the data-astro-prefetch
attribute.
This value defaults to true
when using the <ViewTransitions />
router. Otherwise, the default value is false
.
When set to true
, you can disable prefetching individually by setting data-astro-prefetch="false"
on any individual links.
prefetch.defaultStrategy
Type: 'tap' | 'hover' | 'viewport'
Default: 'hover'
The default prefetch strategy to use when the data-astro-prefetch
attribute is set on a link with no value.
'tap'
: Prefetch just before you click on the link.'hover'
: Prefetch when you hover over or focus on the link. (default)'viewport'
: Prefetch as the links enter the viewport.
You can override this default value and select a different strategy for any individual link by setting a value on the attribute.
Server Options
Customize the Astro dev server, used by both astro dev
and astro preview
.
To set different configuration based on the command run (“dev”, “preview”) a function can also be passed to this configuration option.
server.host
Type: string | boolean
Default: false
astro@0.24.0
Set which network IP addresses the server should listen on (i.e. non-localhost IPs).
false
- do not expose on a network IP addresstrue
- listen on all addresses, including LAN and public addresses[custom-address]
- expose on a network IP address at[custom-address]
(ex:192.168.0.1
)
server.port
Type: number
Default: 4321
Set which port the server should listen on.
If the given port is already in use, Astro will automatically try the next available port.
server.headers
Type: OutgoingHttpHeaders
Default: {}
astro@1.7.0
Set custom HTTP response headers to be sent in astro dev
and astro preview
.
Image Options
image.endpoint
Type: string
Default: undefined
astro@3.1.0
Set the endpoint to use for image optimization in dev and SSR. Set to undefined
to use the default endpoint.
The endpoint will always be injected at /_image
.
image.service
Type: Object
Default: {entrypoint: 'astro/assets/services/sharp', config?: {}}
astro@2.1.0
Set which image service is used for Astro’s assets support.
The value should be an object with an entrypoint for the image service to use and optionally, a config object to pass to the service.
The service entrypoint can be either one of the included services, or a third-party package.
image.domains
Type: Array.<string>
Default: {domains: []}
astro@2.10.10
Defines a list of permitted image source domains for remote image optimization. No other remote images will be optimized by Astro.
This option requires an array of individual domain names as strings. Wildcards are not permitted. Instead, use image.remotePatterns
to define a list of allowed source URL patterns.
image.remotePatterns
Type: Array.<RemotePattern>
Default: {remotePatterns: []}
astro@2.10.10
Defines a list of permitted image source URL patterns for remote image optimization.
remotePatterns
can be configured with four properties:
- protocol
- hostname
- port
- pathname
You can use wildcards to define the permitted hostname
and pathname
values as described below. Otherwise, only the exact values provided will be configured:
hostname
:
- Start with ’**.’ to allow all subdomains (‘endsWith’).
- Start with ’*.’ to allow only one level of subdomain.
pathname
:
- End with ’/**’ to allow all sub-routes (‘startsWith’).
- End with ’/*’ to allow only one level of sub-route.
Markdown Options
markdown.drafts
Deprecated since version 3.0. Use content collections instead.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Control whether Markdown draft pages should be included in the build.
A Markdown page is considered a draft if it includes draft: true
in its frontmatter. Draft pages are always included & visible during development (astro dev
) but by default they will not be included in your final build.
markdown.shikiConfig
Type: Partial<ShikiConfig>
Shiki configuration options. See the Markdown configuration docs for usage.
markdown.syntaxHighlight
Type: 'shiki' | 'prism' | false
Default: shiki
Which syntax highlighter to use, if any.
shiki
- use the Shiki highlighterprism
- use the Prism highlighterfalse
- do not apply syntax highlighting.
markdown.remarkPlugins
Type: RemarkPlugins
Pass remark plugins to customize how your Markdown is built. You can import and apply the plugin function (recommended), or pass the plugin name as a string.
markdown.rehypePlugins
Type: RehypePlugins
Pass rehype plugins to customize how your Markdown’s output HTML is processed. You can import and apply the plugin function (recommended), or pass the plugin name as a string.
markdown.gfm
Type: boolean
Default: true
astro@2.0.0
Astro uses GitHub-flavored Markdown by default. To disable this, set the gfm
flag to false
:
markdown.smartypants
Type: boolean
Default: true
astro@2.0.0
Astro uses the SmartyPants formatter by default. To disable this, set the smartypants
flag to false
:
markdown.remarkRehype
Type: RemarkRehype
Pass options to remark-rehype.
Integrations
Extend Astro with custom integrations. Integrations are your one-stop-shop for adding framework support (like Solid.js), new features (like sitemaps), and new libraries (like Partytown).
Read our Integrations Guide for help getting started with Astro Integrations.
Vite
Pass additional configuration options to Vite. Useful when Astro doesn’t support some advanced configuration that you may need.
View the full vite
configuration object documentation on vitejs.dev.
Examples
Legacy Flags
To help some users migrate between versions of Astro, we occasionally introduce legacy
flags.
These flags allow you to opt in to some deprecated or otherwise outdated behavior of Astro
in the latest version, so that you can continue to upgrade and take advantage of new Astro releases.
Experimental Flags
Astro offers experimental flags to give users early access to new features. These flags are not guaranteed to be stable.
experimental.optimizeHoistedScript
Type: boolean
Default: false
astro@2.10.4
Prevents unused components’ scripts from being included in a page unexpectedly. The optimization is best-effort and may inversely miss including the used scripts. Make sure to double-check your built pages before publishing. Enable hoisted script analysis optimization by adding the experimental flag:
experimental.devOverlay
Type: boolean
Default: false
astro@3.4.0
Enable a dev overlay in development mode. This overlay allows you to inspect your page islands, see helpful audits on performance and accessibility, and more.
experimental.i18n
Type: object
astro@3.5.0
Configures experimental i18n routing and allows you to specify some customization options.
See our guide for more information on internationalization in Astro
experimental.i18n.defaultLocale
Type: string
astro@3.5.0
The default locale of your website/application. This is a required field.
No particular language format or syntax is enforced, but we suggest using lower-case and hyphens as needed (e.g. “es”, “pt-br”) for greatest compatibility.
experimental.i18n.locales
Type: Array.<string>
astro@3.5.0
A list of all locales supported by the website (e.g. ['en', 'es', 'pt-br']
). This list should also include the defaultLocale
. This is a required field.
No particular language format or syntax is enforced, but your folder structure must match exactly the locales in the list.
experimental.i18n.fallback
Type: Record.<string, string>
astro@3.5.0
The fallback strategy when navigating to pages that do not exist (e.g. a translated page has not been created).
Use this object to declare a fallback locale
route for each language you support. If no fallback is specified, then unavailable pages will return a 404.
Example
The following example configures your content fallback strategy to redirect unavailable pages in /pt-br/
to their es
version, and unavailable pages in /fr/
to their en
version. Unavailable /es/
pages will return a 404.
experimental.i18n.routing
Type: Routing
astro@3.7.0
बीटा
Controls the routing strategy to determine your site URLs. Set this based on your folder/URL path configuration for your default language.
experimental.i18n.routing.prefixDefaultLocale
Type: boolean
Default: false
astro@3.7.0
बीटा
When false
, only non-default languages will display a language prefix.
The defaultLocale
will not show a language prefix and content files do not exist in a localized folder.
URLs will be of the form example.com/[locale]/content/
for all non-default languages, but example.com/content/
for the default locale.
When true
, all URLs will display a language prefix.
URLs will be of the form example.com/[locale]/content/
for every route, including the default language.
Localized folders are used for every language, including the default.
experimental.contentCollectionCache
Type: boolean
Default: false
astro@3.5.0
Enables a persistent cache for content collections when building in static mode.
