Dynamic Routes in Astro (+load parameters from JSON)
- Dynamic routing in Astro can be used to generate individual pages based on unique identifiers such as project IDs.
- To set up an Astro project for dynamic content generation, create a dedicated folder and initialize a dynamic page template.
- The core of dynamic page generation in Astro is the setup of the [id].astro file, which accesses dynamic parameters via Astro.params.
- To test the dynamically generated pages, build the project and preview and test it while running your local development server.
- To load the parameters for static paths from a JSON file, create a JSON file named 'projects.json' within the 'src/data' directory of your Astro project.
- Populate the 'projects.json' file with the 'id', 'title', and 'description' of each project.
- Update the 'getStaticPaths' function in the '[id].astro' file to load the project details from the 'projects.json' file. The 'find' function is used to retrieve the project details based on the ID passed in the URL.
- Dynamic routing is crucial in generating pages dynamically and ensuring that your pages are always up-to-date.
- By fully setting up your Astro project, you can generate a dedicated page for every content object, rendering pages dynamically.
