On-demand Rendering
このコンテンツはまだ日本語訳がありません。
Your Astro project code must be rendered to HTML in order to be displayed on the web.
By default, Astro pages, routes, and API endpoints will be pre-rendered at build time as static pages. However, you can choose to render some or all of your routes on demand by a server when a route is requested.
On-demand rendered pages and routes are generated per visit, and can be customized for each viewer. For example, a page rendered on demand can show a logged-in user their account information or display freshly updated data without requiring a full-site rebuild. On-demand rendering on the server at request time is also known as server-side rendering (SSR).
Enabling on-demand rendering
Section titled Enabling on-demand renderingBy default, your entire Astro site will be prerendered, and static HTML pages will be sent to the browser. However, you may opt out of prerendering on any routes that require server rendering, for example, a page that checks for cookies and displays personalized content.
First, add an adapter integration for your server runtime to enable on-demand server rendering in your Astro project.
Then, add export const prerender = false
at the top of the individual page or endpoint you want to render on demand. The rest of your site will remain a static site:
The following example shows opting out of prerendering in order to display a random number each time the endpoint is hit:
'server'
mode
Section titled 'server' modeFor a highly dynamic app, after adding an adapter, set your build output configuration to output: 'server'
to server-render all your pages by default. This is the equivalent of opting out of prerendering on every page.
Then, if needed, you can choose to prerender any individual pages that do not require a server to execute, such as a privacy policy or about page.
Add export const prerender = true
to any page or route to prerender a static page or endpoint:
Start with the default static mode until you are sure that most or all of your pages will be rendered on demand! This ensures that your site is as performant as possible, not relying on a server function to render static content.
The 'server'
output mode does not bring any additional functionality and is only for convenience. It only switches the default page behaviour so you can avoid needing to opt out of prerendering manually on the majority of your routes.

Add an Adapter
Section titled Add an AdapterTo render any of your pages on demand, for any output
mode, you need to add an adapter.
Astro maintains official adapters for Node.js, Netlify, Vercel, and Cloudflare. You can find both official and community adapters in our integrations directory. Choose the one that corresponds to your deployment environment.
Each adapter allows Astro to output a script that runs your project on a specific runtime: the environment that runs code on the server to generate pages when they are requested (e.g. Netlify, Cloudflare).
You can add any of the official adapter integrations maintained by Astro with the following astro add
command. This will install the adapter and make the appropriate changes to your astro.config.mjs
file in one step.
For example, to install the Netlify adapter, run:
You can also add an adapter manually by installing the NPM package (e.g. @astrojs/netlify
) and updating astro.config.mjs
yourself.
Note that different adapters may have different configuration settings. Read each adapter’s documentation, and apply any necessary config options to your chosen adapter in astro.config.mjs
On-demand rendering features
Section titled On-demand rendering featuresHTML streaming
Section titled HTML streamingWith HTML streaming, a document is broken up into chunks, sent over the network in order, and rendered on the page in that order. Astro uses HTML streaming in on-demand rendering to send each component to the browser as it renders them. This makes sure the user sees your HTML as fast as possible, although network conditions can cause large documents to be downloaded slowly, and waiting for data fetches can block page rendering.
Features that modify the Response headers are only available at the page level. (You can’t use them inside of components, including layout components.) By the time Astro runs your component code, it has already sent the Response headers and they cannot be modified.
Cookies
Section titled CookiesA page or API endpoint rendered on demand can check, set, get, and delete cookies.
The example below updates the value of a cookie for a page view counter:
See more details about Astro.cookies
and the AstroCookie
type in the API reference.
Response
Section titled ResponseAstro.response
is a standard ResponseInit
object. It can be used to set the response status and headers.
The example below sets a response status and status text for a product page when the product does not exist:
Astro.response.headers
Section titled Astro.response.headersYou can set headers using the Astro.response.headers
object:
Return a Response
object
Section titled Return a Response objectYou can also return a Response object directly from any page using on-demand rendering either manually or with Astro.redirect
.
The example below looks up an ID in the database on a dynamic page and either it returns a 404 if the product does not exist, or it redirects the user to another page if the product is no longer available, or it displays the product:
Request
Section titled RequestAstro.request
is a standard Request object. It can be used to get the url
, headers
, method
, and even the body of the request.
You can access additional information from this object for pages that are not statically generated.
Astro.request.headers
Section titled Astro.request.headersThe headers for the request are available on Astro.request.headers
. This works like the browser’s Request.headers
. It is a Headers object where you can retrieve headers such as the cookie.
Astro.request.method
Section titled Astro.request.methodThe HTTP method used in the request is available as Astro.request.method
. This works like the browser’s Request.method
. It returns the string representation of the HTTP method used in the request.
See more details about Astro.request
in the API reference.
Server Endpoints
Section titled Server EndpointsA server endpoint, also known as an API route, is a special function exported from a .js
or .ts
file within the src/pages/
folder. A powerful feature of server-side rendering on demand, API routes are able to securely execute code on the server.
The function takes an endpoint context and returns a Response.
