@maiertech/gatsby-plugin-blog

This plugin can be used with a Gatsby project or with a Gatsby theme. It encapsulates the logic for programmatically creating post pages.

Installation

yarn add @mdotasia/gatsby-plugin-blog

Configuration

Posts reside in a directory that can be configured, e.g. content/posts, referred to as the posts directory. For each post create a subdirectory inside the posts directory. This plugin uses the following conventions:

• The subdirectory name is the slug, e.g. my-first-post.
• The post is an MDX file called index.mdx.

Use plugin gatsby-source-filesystem to configure the parent directory of the posts directory in the plugins array in gatsby-config.js, e.g.

{
  resolve: "gatsby-source-filesystem",
  options: {
    name: 'content',
    path: 'content'
  }
}

Add @maiertech/gatsby-plugin-blog to plugins in gatsby-config.js. For the minimal configuration you need to provide the template option, e.g.

{
  resolve: "@mdotasia/gatsby-plugin-blog",
  options: {
    template: `src/templates/post.jsx`
  }
}

You can use the following options:

The frontmatter of each post needs to inlcude the following properties, which are used in the underlying GraphQL query:
