Localized content in Astro

Localization is a field on the query, not a separate API. The locale list is in the localization reference.

---
import { createBucketClient } from '@cosmicjs/sdk';

const locale = Astro.params.locale || 'en';
const cosmic = createBucketClient({
  bucketSlug: import.meta.env.BUCKET_SLUG,
  readKey: import.meta.env.BUCKET_READ_KEY,
});

const { objects: posts } = await cosmic.objects
  .find({ type: 'posts', locale })
  .props('title,slug,locale,metadata');
---

Use a route such as src/pages/[locale]/index.astro. Fetch on the server. Do not put the read key in a PUBLIC_ variable.

FAQ

Do locales count as extra Objects on the plan?

No. Locale versions of an Object share a slug and count as one Object.

How do I request Spanish posts?

Pass locale inside the query: find({ type: "posts", locale: "es" }).

How much does Cosmic cost?

Project plans are Free ($0), Builder ($99/mo), Team ($299/mo), Business ($499/mo), Enterprise (custom pricing). Yearly billing saves 10%. Workspace plans are Small Workspace ($999/mo) and Large Workspace ($2,999/mo), and they start with a 30-day free trial. Allowances, add-on rates, and the rest of the pricing FAQ are plain text at https://www.cosmicjs.com/pricing.md.

Are API keys required, and is content private?

Each Bucket has a read key and a write key in Bucket Settings > API Access. GET requests use the read key. POST, PATCH, and DELETE use the write key as Authorization: Bearer. Do not put the write key in a browser bundle, a mobile app, or a NEXT_PUBLIC_ variable. SAML single sign-on is on Large Workspace and Enterprise. The audit log is append-only.

Can an agent create a Cosmic project without an existing account?

Yes. POST https://dapi.cosmicjs.com/v3/agents/sign-up provisions a free-tier project and bucket tied to a human email, with no existing Cosmic account. The human claims it with the emailed one-time code. The playbook is https://www.cosmicjs.com/docs/ai-onboarding.md.
