Read NetlifyCMS config and data.

const { getConfig, getData } = require('netlify-cms-reader')

const data = await getData(getConfig('static/admin/config.yml'))

Note: For filtered folder collections in Netlify CMS, see: Filtered folder collections

If a folder collection is filtered, then that collection is returned by applying the criteria configured in its filter property.

As the supported types for the filter value is not documented, this implementation accepts all possible types, so a filter with the setting {field: tags, value: ['latest', 'most popular']} is handled, despite the fact that the UI of Netlify CMS (at least with version 2.10.48) does not handle it despite configuration for it is accepted.

Note: For collections with sortable fields in Netlify CMS, see Sortable fields

If a folder collection has a sortableFields setting, then that collection is returned by sorting it in increasing order based on the first element in the sortableFields array.

E.g. if a collection have a sortableFields setting such as ['latest', 'most popular'] then the collection will be returned with the items sorted by the values of their latest field in increasing order.

const path = require('path')

exports.createPages = async ({ actions, graphql }) => {

  const { pages } = await getData(getConfig('static/admin/config.yml'))

  pages.forEach(page => {
    createPage({
      path: page.path,
      component: path.resolve('src/templates/page.js'),
      context: { page },
    })
