Woah! That's a lot of peer dependencies! Well, this is a Gatsby Theme so chances are you'll be installing these as part of combining this theme with other themes and plugins.

Setup

gatsby-config.js

Add @hawkstein/gatsby-theme-schedule to your gatsby-config.js

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: ['@hawkstein/gatsby-theme-schedule']
}

Theme options

Example

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@hawkstein/gatsby-theme-schedule',
      options: {
        heading: "Example Event",
        locationsOrder: [`Main Location`, `Location Two`, `Location Three`],
      }
    }
  ]
}

Source data directory setup

To add events create .mdx files in the src/events directory. The source directory can be adjusted by setting the plugin option contentPath.

|-- src
    |-- events
        |-- my-event.mdx
        |-- my-other-event.mdx
        |-- another-event.mdx
        |-- the-last-event.mdx

MDX Pages Setup

Pages must include date and start in the frontmatter. You'll probably to include location too but if it's omitted from all of the mdx then it will be ignored.

// src/events/my-event.mdx
---
date: 6/11/81
start: 18:00
location: Main Location
---

# My Event

Content for the event page. Any valid markdown / mdx will work here!

As the .mdx files are parsed by Gatsby, source nodes for all the events days and locations will be generated.

Theme UI Components

The theme is using theme-ui for layout and so anything provided by theme-ui/components is going to fit in.

Shadowing gatsby-theme-schedule Components

The first thing to shadow is your logo.

|-- src
    |-- @hawkstein
      |-- gatsby-theme-schedule
        |-- src
          |-- components
            |-- logo.tsx

If you would like to customize any part of the theme you can do so by shadowing the theme file. Perhaps layout.tsx or its children header.tsx or footer.tsx.

To do this create the following directory src/gatsby-plugin-theme-ui and then create an index.js

// src/gatsby-plugin-theme-ui/index.js

import baseTheme from "@hawkstein/gatsby-theme-schedule/src/theme.js"

export default {
  ...baseTheme,
  colors: {
    ...baseTheme.colors,
    primary: "#EEE",
    background: "#000",
  },
}

Theme creates a redirect from /schedule to the 1st day of the schedule, if you want this to be implemented by your host then you should use the relevant plugin (e.g. Netlify plugin)

Theme Options

Theme Options set in gatsby-config are available via a custom hook exported as useScheduleOptions

Development

gatsby-theme-schedules uses yarn workspaces for development. Clone and run yarn && yarn develop.
