@liquidlight/docusaurus-framework v1.0.0

Docusaurus Framework

This is a framework around a framework. It is a quick, kick-start package allowing minimal setup for a documentation site.

At Liquid Light we have our documentation located within the main site repo, so we made this to allow for lightweight deployment of our documentation framework. It comes with some (hopefully) sensible defaults.

This can work as both a contained documentation framework within a site (e.g. if you have a docs folder in your repo) or as a documentation repo in itself.

Setup

• npm init if this is a brand new project
• npm i @liquidlight/docusaurus-framework --save
• Create a docusaurus.config.js in the root of your project (or subfolder) with the following contents:

module.exports = require('@liquidlight/docusaurus-framework/docusaurus.config')({
	title: 'Liquid Light',
});

• Add the following scripts to the package.json

"scripts": {
  "watch": "docusaurus start",
  "build": "docusaurus build",
  "serve": "docusaurus serve"
}

• Create a docs folder, here you can add a series of folders and .md (or .mdx files) for you documentation content - see below if your package.json is located inside your docs folder
• Create a static folder - anything in here can be directly referenced in your Markdown files without the static/ - e.g. ./static/img/logo.png can be referenced as img/logo.png

Customisation

A lot of the settings can be customised, along with allowing further expansion if required. All of the options are stored as defaults and can be overridden - check the top of docusaurus.config.js

Self-contained in the docs folder

If you want your package.json file inside the docs folder so it is all self-contained, you need to set the following in your docusaurus.config.js

docs: {
	path: './',
}

Remove the logo

If you don't want the logo to appear in the nav bar, set logo: {} in the config object
