LumeCMS

LumeCMS is a CMS to manage the content of any site.

LumeCMS is a Deno native CMS to easily manage the content of any website. Despite its name, it can be used not only for Lume sites, but also for any other static site generator like Eleventy, Hugo, Jekyll, etc.

  • It supports yaml, json or any format with front matter like markdown. It's easy to add more formats.
  • In addition to the filesystem, it can store data using other storage methods, like Deno KV, or external APIs like GitHub API.
  • It allows to live-preview the site.
  • It's possible to manage different versions using git branches (work in progress).

Installation

To add LumeCMS to your site, create the _cms.ts configuration file with the following structure:

import lumeCMS from "lume/cms.ts";

const cms = lumeCMS();

// Configuration here

export default cms;

Go to configuration section to learn how to configure LumeCMS with storage, collections, documents and uploads.

Run in localhost

Run deno task lume cms to run the CMS in localhost (or lume cms if you're on Lume CLI). Lume automatically detects the _cms.ts configuration, build your site and connect it to the CMS. Now, you can edit the content in the CMS and preview the results in your site in real time.
