🔥 Usage

Theme options

Key	Default	Required	Description
basePath	/	No	Root url for all docs
configPath	config	No	Location of config files
docsPath	docs	No	The site description for SEO and social (FB, Twitter) tags
githubUrl	-	-	Deprecated in favor of `repositoryUrl`
repositoryUrl	-	No	The URL of your repository (supports GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket). Example: `https://github/rocketseat/gatsby-themes`
baseDir	-	No	If your Gatsby site does not live in the root of your project directory/git repo, pass the subdirectory name here (`docs`, for example)
withMdx	true	No	If necessary, you can add your own MDX options to the theme. To do so, make sure you turn this option to false and include `gatsby-plugin-mdx` on your `gatsby-config`
branch	main	No	Default branch of the repository

Note: When adding a BitBucket link on the repositoryUrl option, don't add the src/<branch> to it. Example of correct link: https://bitbucket.org/jpedroschmitz/gatsby-themes

Example usage

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: `@rocketseat/gatsby-theme-docs-core`,
      options: {
        basePath: `documentation`,
        configPath: `config`,
        docsPath: `docs`,
        githubUrl: `https://github.com/rocketseat/gatsby-themes`,
        baseDir: `www`,
      },
    },
  ],
};

Navigation

The sidebar is highly customizable, you can create a file under the config folder named sidebar.yml. If you add a basePath in the theme options, you don't need to add it before the links, the useSidebar hook will append it.

Here is an example:

# Simple item
- label: 'Home'
  link: '/'
# With list of subitems
- label: 'With dropdown'
  items:
    - label: 'My Example'
      link: '/my-example'

`useSidebar`

To get all the sidebar items, you can use the useSidebar hook. Example:

import React from 'react';
import { useSidebar } from '@rocketseat/gatsby-theme-docs-core';

export default function Sidebar() {
  const data = useSidebar();

  console.log(data);
  /*
    [
      {
        "node": {
          "label": "Home",
          "link": "/",
          "items": null,
          "id": "a2913be3-af3c-5fc9-967e-a058e86b20a9"
        }
      },
      {
        "node": {
          "label": "With dropdown",
          "link": null,
          "items": [{ "label": "My Example", "link": "/my-example" }],
          "id": "c7d9606c-4bda-5097-a0df-53108e9f4efd"
        }
      }
    ]
  */
}

Docs Fields

Inside your docs folder, you can create MDX files. The filename will be the page path.

Add a title to the frontmatter of the MDX file and place the content below it. For example:

---
title: 'My Example'
description: 'A simple description for this page'
image: 'banner.png'
disableTableOfContents: false
---

Your amazing page

Every file must have a custom title. Description and image are not required.

Shadowing

Check the Shadowing in Gatsby Themes docs to understand how to customize this theme!

In general, you will need to create two files (Docs.js and Homepage.js) into src/@rocketseat/gatsby-theme-docs-core/components/templates to shadow/override it.
