Netlify Identity DatoCMS plugin

A plugin that nicely displays Netlify Identity user info instead of the raw ID.

Configuration

To fetch user info for your Netlify Identity instance, you need to publish a specific Netlify function.

Install the datocms-plugin-netlify-identity package in your project, then add a file called user-info.js in your functions folder with the following content:

1
const generateHandler = require('datocms-plugin-netlify-identity');
2

3
const accessToken = 'CHANGEME';
4

5
exports.handler = generateHandler(accessToken);

Once deployed, you can configure the plugin setting inserting both the URL of the Netlify function, and the access token you chose:

Development

Install all the project dependencies with:

1
yarn install

Start the local development server with:

1
yarn start

The plugin will be served from <https://datocms-plugin-netlify-identity.localtunnel.me/>. Insert this URL as the plugin Entry point URL.
