Deploy Gatsby in India
public/, not dist/ — the one detail behind most empty first deploys. DataDack detects Gatsby from your repository and deploys it to Mumbai, Pune and Noida edge PoPs — sub-15ms for Indian users, with DPDP data residency by default.
What we detect for Gatsby
These are the exact defaults a Gatsby repository with no configuration receives. Every one is overridable per project and per environment.
- Install command
- bun install --frozen-lockfile
- Build command
- bun run build
- Output directory
- public
- Toolchain
- Node 22
- Request handling
- Static · nothing runs per request
One real file per route, pre-rendered at build time and frozen at the edge. An unpublished path returns a true 404 instead of quietly serving the home page.
Three steps, no configuration
- 1
Connect the repository
Authorise GitHub once and pick your Gatsby repo. Nothing to install locally, no CLI to log into.
- 2
Gatsby is detected
We read the repository, identify Gatsby, and pre-fill the build: bun run build, publishing public. Override any of it if your project differs.

Gatsby deployment FAQ
Do I need to configure the build command for Gatsby?
No. DataDack detects Gatsby and runs bun run build, publishing the public directory on the Node 22 toolchain. You can override the install command, build command and output directory per project and per environment if your repository differs from the convention.
Where is my Gatsby app hosted?
In India. Builds run in ap-south-3 and your app is served from Mumbai, Pune and Noida edge PoPs, giving sub-15ms latency to Indian users. Data never leaves Indian jurisdiction, which is what makes DataDack DPDP-compliant by default rather than by configuration.
How are unmatched routes handled for Gatsby?
Gatsby is a site generator, so it emits a real file per route and an unpublished path returns a genuine 404. We deliberately do not fall back to the index — that would return 200 and your home page for every typo and dead link.
Can I run preview deployments for Gatsby pull requests?
Yes. Every pull request gets its own isolated preview URL with its own environment variables, and previews can be password-protected or SSO-gated. Instant rollback to any previous build is one click, with no rebuild.
