gatsby-plugin-dev-community v1.0.20

gatsby-plugin-dev-community

This small project it's a Gatsby plugin that fetches user articles from Dev.to’s API /articles?username combined with /articles/${id} endpoint.

Note: There is an alternative plugin called gatsby-source-dev that achieves the same functionality, but it has unnecessary dependencies and hasn't received recent updates.

Usage

Install gatsby-plugin-dev-community in your project:

yarn add gatsby-plugin-dev-community
npm install gatsby-plugin-dev-community

Then add the plugin to your gatsby-config.js file:

{
  resolve: "gatsby-plugin-dev-community",
  options: {
    username: 'userDevCommunity',  // This is your username on Dev.to
    perPage: '50', // Page size (the number of items to return per page 1 ... 1000). By default is 30
    page: '1' //Pagination page. By default is 1
  }
}

This plugin retrieves data from the Dev.to API and stores it in Gatsby. It includes a sample query that fetches article information such as title, id, and description.

{
  allDevArticles {
    edges {
      node {
        article {
          id
          title
          description
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
