Version 2 of the Essential Gatsby build plugin adds support for the new render modes introduced in Gatsby 4, as well as improved support for Gatsby functions. For best results it should be installed alongside gatsby-plugin-netlify
. Beta support was available since Gatsby 4 was released, but with this stable release it is ready for production use for everyone.
This version adds full support for the new Gatsby 4 render modes on Netlify. Gatsby 4 introduced two render modes, alongside its original SSG mode. For a detailed comparison of each mode see this blog post.
To support these new modes, the Essential Netlify build plugin generates three serverless Netlify Functions that are automatically deployed alongside your site:
__api
: used for Gatsby Functions__dsg
: an on-demand builder used for DSG pages.__ssr
: used for server-side rendered pages.You do not need to configure or deploy these functions yourself: they are automatically generated and deployed whenever you build.
You can see the logs for these functions in the "Functions" tabs in the Netlify dashboard.
It will also generate Netlify rewrites to ensure that each route is handled by the correct function.
This version of the plugin will soon be installed automatically for all Gatsby sites on Netlify. If you can't wait, you can install it manually using file-based plugin installation.
You should also install gatsby-plugin-netlify
to enable all features. It is required if you are using SSR pages. See how to install
You do not need to do anything different to deploy your site if building on Netlify: it will automatically deploy the functions when you build. If you are deploying manually using the Netlify CLI, you must ensure that instead of running netlify build
then netlify deploy
as separate commands, you run them together as netlify deploy --build
.
Currently you cannot use StaticImage
or gatsby-transformer-sharp
in SSR or DSG pages. The best workaround is to use an image CDN such as Cloudinary or imgix to host your images. This will give you faster builds too.
