Configure a build pipeline
Set the build command, output directory, and Node version for a project.
You'll set up your build pipeline so ShipStack knows exactly how to compile and package your code on every push. This ensures consistent, automated builds without manual intervention.
Once configured, your pipeline runs in a clean container each time you push — no surprises, no environment drift.
Open Pipelines in the sidebar.
Select Build settings for the project.
Build settings is where you define how ShipStack transforms your code into a deployable artifact.
Set the Build command; it runs in a clean container on every push.
This command runs in isolation every time you push, so your build is reproducible and free from local machine quirks.
Click Save pipeline; the next push builds with the new settings.
Your pipeline is now live — the next push will use these settings.
What's next
With your build command in place, configure your output directory so ShipStack knows where to find the built artifacts.
Then set up deployment triggers to automatically push successful builds to your staging or production environment.
