gatsby-transformer-source-code v0.1.1

gatsby-transformer-source-code

Adds SourceCode nodes to gatsby. You can specify which MIME Types to process in the transformer options.

Install

npm install --save gatsby-transformer-source-code

Note: You also need to have gatsby-source-filesystem installed and configured so it points to your files.

How to use

In your gatsby-config.js

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-transformer-source-code`,
      options: {
        mimeTypes: ['application/javascript', 'text/plain']
      }
    },
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-source-filesystem`,
      options: {
        path: `./src/data/`
      }
    }
  ]
};

Where the source folder ./src/data/ contains .js/.txt files.

NOTE: If you do not provide a mimeTypes array in options, all files will be processed.

How to query

You can query the nodes using GraphQL, like from the GraphiQL browser: http://localhost:8000/___graphql.

Query all source code files

{
  allSourceCode {
    nodes {
      content
    }
  }
}

Returns:

{
  "data": {
    "allSourceCode": {
      "nodes": [
        {
          "content": "content of file"
        },
        {
          "content": "content of second file"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Query a specific plain text file

{
  file(relativePath: { eq: "LICENSE" }) {
    childSourceCode {
      ... on SourceCode {
        content
      }
    }
  }
}

Returns:

{
  "data": {
    "file": {
      "childSourceCode": {
        "content": "MIT License"
      }
    }
  }
}
