Config

GitHub

Configure nuxt.config.ts for a GitHub public repo:

content: {
    documentDriven: true,
    // Ignore "Number Dot" ordering in /content
    ignores: ['^\\.', '^-', '^[0-5]\\d*\\.'],

    sources: {
        github: {
          prefix: '/docs-pub', // Route prefix for remote contents
          driver: 'github', // Unstorage driver
          repo: "annebrown/content-data",
          branch: "main",
          dir: "content", // Dir in external repo where contents are located.
        },
    }
},

Local FS Source

To reduce traffic and improve DX, clone and maintain the external source locally on devy host.

Config nuxt.config.ts to access the locally cloned content repo:

local: {
    prefix: '/docs-pub-local', // Prefix for routes
    driver: 'fs',
    base: resolve(__dirname, '/$PATH_TO_CLONED_REPO/content'),
},

This allows for viewing modifications to the content, without waiting for the published app to re-deploy and rebuild it's /content. As well, this reduces hosting costs as pricing is based on BW, serverless function execution, and build minutes.
