To verify that a site is working correctly, visit the default URL of a specific environment:
Configure acquia_config.yaml
or acquia_config.yml
.
The acquia_config.yaml
or acquia_config.yml
file must be located in root folder of your project containing the following configuration:
output_directory: "out/"
root_directory: "./"
Configuration properties:
Output directory: This output directory contains build outputs such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files, which are served for the Front End Hosting - Basic hosting. The default output directory is html/
. This directory can be overridden by specifying the output directory in the acquia_config.yaml
or acquia_config.yml
file.
Root directory: The main directory of your project may not always align with your application's build root. For example, a repository might have a frontend
directory, which contains a stand-alone Next.js application. Therefore, you must set the root directory to ensure that the commands are executed from the correct directory of your project.
acquia_config.yaml
or acquia_config.yml
.Deploy the branch <new-branch>
from the Cloud UI.
