## README
# gatsby-plugin-external-css
Add external custom css files to your generated html pages.
## Installation
```bash
npm install gatsby-plugin-external-css
```
or
```bash
yarn add gatsby-plugin-external-css
```
## Usage
This plugin lets you add a custom css file in your builded public index.html.
You probably don't need this as it's for very specific usage.
In my case, I'm generating different gatsby projects based on a config, and I'm providing a custom way to give a css file out of the src folder scope.
##### Add the following plugin to your `gatsby-config.js`
Create
```js
// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
{
resolve: 'gatsby-plugin-external-css',
options: {
source: 'full/local/path.css',
},
},
],
}
```
Be sure that the file exists.
The file will be copied into the final public file with a custom cache busting.
The css file will be appended at the last of the meta.
