Since Payload CMS 3.0 introduced native support for Next.js, developers can now build high-performance CMS-driven applications efficiently.
Key Features:
- Server-side rendering (SSR) and static site generation (SSG)
- API routes for dynamic content fetching
- Authentication and session management
Example: Fetching CMS Data in Next.js
Using getServerSideProps for SSR:
export async function getServerSideProps() {
const response = await fetch(‘https://your-payload-cms.com/api/posts’);
const posts = await response.json();
return {
props: { posts }
};
}
Using getStaticProps for SSG:
export async function getStaticProps() {
const response = await fetch(‘https://your-payload-cms.com/api/posts’);
const posts = await response.json();
return {
props: { posts },
revalidate: 10, // Rebuild every 10 seconds
};
}
