|
||||
|
||||
Create a Markdown file, `greeting.md`, and place it under the `docs` directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
website # root directory of your site
|
||||
├── docs
|
||||
│ └── greeting.md
|
||||
├── src
|
||||
│ └── pages
|
||||
├── docusaurus.config.js
|
||||
├── ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
At the top of the file, specify `id` and `title` in the front matter, so that Docusaurus will pick them up correctly when generating your site.
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
---
|
||||
id: greeting
|
||||
title: Hello
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Hello from Docusaurus
|
||||
|
||||
Are you ready to create the documentation site for your open source project?
|
||||
|
||||
### Headers
|
||||
|
||||
will show up on the table of contents on the upper right
|
||||
|
||||
So that your users will know what this page is all about without scrolling down or even without reading too much.
|
||||
|
||||
### Only h2 and h3 will be in the toc
|
||||
|
||||
The headers are well-spaced so that the hierarchy is clear.
|
||||
|
||||
- lists will help you
|
||||
- present the key points
|
||||
- that you want your users to remember
|
||||
- and you may nest them
|
||||
- multiple times
|
||||
|
||||
### Custom id headers {#custom-id}
|
||||
|
||||
With `{#custom-id}` syntax you can set your own header id.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will render in the browser as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
import BrowserWindow from '@site/src/components/BrowserWindow';
|
||||
|
||||
<BrowserWindow url="http://localhost:3000">
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Hello from Docusaurus</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
Are you ready to create the documentation site for your open source project?
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Headers</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
will show up on the table of contents on the upper right
|
||||
|
||||
So that your users will know what this page is all about without scrolling down or even without reading too much.
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Only h2 and h3 will be in the toc</h3>
|
||||
|
||||

- and you may nest them
|
||||
- multiple times
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="custom-id">Custom id headers</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
With <code>{#custom-id}</code> syntax you can set your own header id.
|
||||

---
|
||||
|
||||
The docs feature provides users with a way to organize Markdown files in a hierarchical format.
|
||||
|
||||
## Document ID {#document-id}
|
||||
|
||||
Every document has a unique `id`. By default, a document `id` is the name of the document (without the extension) relative to the root docs directory.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, `greeting.md` id is `greeting` and `guide/hello.md` id is `guide/hello`.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
website # Root directory of your site
|
||||
└── docs
|
||||
├── greeting.md
|
||||
└── guide
|
||||
└── hello.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
However, the **last part** of the `id` can be defined by user in the front matter. For example, if `guide/hello.md`'s content is defined as below, its final `id` is `guide/part1`.
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
---
|
||||
id: part1
|
||||
---
|
||||
Lorem ipsum
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you want more control over the last part of the document URL, it is possible to add a `slug` (defaults to the `id`).
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
---
|
||||
id: part1
|
||||
slug: part1.html
|
||||
---
|
||||
Lorem ipsum
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::note
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to use:
|
||||
|
||||
- absolute slugs: `slug: /mySlug`, `slug: /`...
|
||||
- relative slugs: `slug: mySlug`, `slug: ./../mySlug`...
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Home page docs {#home-page-docs}
|
||||
|
||||
If you want a document to be available at the root, and have a path like `https://docusaurus.io/docs/`, you can use the slug frontmatter:
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
---
|
||||
id: my-home-doc
|
||||
slug: /
|
||||
---
|
||||
Lorem ipsum
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Docs-only mode {#docs-only-mode}
|
||||
|
||||
If you only want the documentation feature, you can run your Docusaurus 2 site without a landing page and display your documentation page as the index page instead.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable docs-only mode, set the docs plugin `routeBasePath: '/'`, and use the frontmatter `slug: /` on the document that should be the index page ([more infos](#home-page-docs)).
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
You should delete the existing homepage at `./src/pages/index.js`, or else there will be two files mapping to the same route!
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
There's also a "blog-only mode" for those who only want to use the blog feature of Docusaurus 2. You can use the same method detailed above. Follow the setup instructions on [Blog-only mode](../../blog.md#blog-only-mode).

title: Docs Markdown Features
|
||||
description: Docusaurus Markdown features that are specific to the docs plugin
|
||||
slug: /docs-markdown-features
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Docs can use any [Markdown feature](../markdown-features/markdown-features-intro.mdx), and have a few additional docs-specific Markdown features.
|
||||
|
||||
## Markdown frontmatter {#markdown-frontmatter}
|
||||
|
||||
Markdown docs have their own [Markdown frontmatter](../../api/plugins/plugin-content-docs.md#markdown-frontmatter)
|
||||
|
||||
## Referencing other documents {#referencing-other-documents}
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to reference another document file, you could use the relative path of the document you want to link to.
|
||||
|
||||
Docusaurus will convert the file path to be the final document url path (and remove the `.md` extension).
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you are in `folder/doc1.md` and you want to reference `folder/doc2.md`, `folder/subfolder/doc3.md` and `otherFolder/doc4.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
I am referencing a [document](doc2.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Reference to another [document in a subfolder](subfolder/doc3.md).
|
||||
|
||||
[Relative document](../otherFolder/doc4.md) referencing works as well.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
It is better to use relative file paths links instead of relative links:
|
||||
|
||||
- links will keep working on the GitHub interface
|
||||
- you can customize the document slugs without having to update all the links
|
||||
- a versioned doc will link to another doc of the exact same version
|
||||
- relative links are very likely to break if you update the [`trailingSlash` config](../../api/docusaurus.config.js.md#trailing-slash)

slug: /docs-multi-instance
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
The `@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs` plugin can support [multi-instance](../../using-plugins.md#multi-instance-plugins-and-plugin-ids).
|
||||
|
||||
:::note
|
||||
|
||||
This feature is only useful for [versioned documentations](./versioning.md). It is recommended to be familiar with docs versioning before reading this page.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Use-cases {#use-cases}
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes you want a Docusaurus site to host 2 distinct sets of documentation (or more).
|
||||
|
||||
These documentations may even have different versioning/release lifecycles.
|
||||
|
||||
### Mobile SDKs documentation {#mobile-sdks-documentation}
|
||||
|
||||
If you build a cross-platform mobile SDK, you may have 2 documentations:
|
||||
|
||||
- Android SDK documentation (`v1.0`, `v1.1`)
|
||||
- iOS SDK documentation (`v1.0`, `v2.0`)
|
||||
|
||||
In such case, you can use a distinct docs plugin instance per mobile SDK documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
If each documentation instance is very large, you should rather create 2 distinct Docusaurus sites.
|
||||
|
||||
If someone edits the iOS documentation, is it really useful to rebuild everything, including the whole Android documentation that did not change?
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Versioned and unversioned doc {#versioned-and-unversioned-doc}
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, you want some documents to be versioned, while other documents are more "global", and it feels useless to version them.
|
||||
|
||||
We use this pattern on the Docusaurus website itself:
|
||||
|
||||
- The [/docs/\*](/docs) section is versioned
|
||||
- The [/community/\*](/community/support) section is unversioned
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup {#setup}
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose you have 2 documentations:
|
||||
|
||||
- Product: some versioned doc about your product
|
||||
- Community: some unversioned doc about the community around your product
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, you should use the same plugin twice in your site configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
`@docusaurus/preset-classic` already includes a docs plugin instance for you!
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
When using the preset:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
presets: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/preset-classic',
|
||||
{
|
||||
docs: {
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
// id: 'product', // omitted => default instance
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
path: 'product',
|
||||
routeBasePath: 'product',
|
||||
sidebarPath: require.resolve('./sidebarsProduct.js'),
|
||||
// ... other options
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs',
|
||||
{
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
id: 'community',
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
path: 'community',
|
||||
routeBasePath: 'community',
|
||||
sidebarPath: require.resolve('./sidebarsCommunity.js'),
|
||||
// ... other options
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When not using the preset:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs',
|
||||
{
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
// id: 'product', // omitted => default instance
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
path: 'product',
|
||||
routeBasePath: 'product',
|
||||
sidebarPath: require.resolve('./sidebarsProduct.js'),
|
||||
// ... other options
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs',
|
||||
{
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
id: 'community',
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
path: 'community',
|
||||
routeBasePath: 'community',
|
||||
sidebarPath: require.resolve('./sidebarsCommunity.js'),
|
||||
// ... other options
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Don't forget to assign a unique `id` attribute to plugin instances.
|
||||
|
||||
:::note
|
||||
|
||||
We consider that the `product` instance is the most important one, and make it the "default" instance by not assigning any id.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Versioned paths {#versioned-paths}
|
||||
|
||||
Each plugin instance will store versioned docs in a distinct folder.
|
||||
|
||||
The default plugin instance will use these paths:
|
||||
|
||||
- `website/versions.json`
|
||||
- `website/versioned_docs`
|
||||
- `website/versioned_sidebars`
|
||||
|
||||
The other plugin instances (with an `id` attribute) will use these paths:
|
||||
|
||||
- `website/<pluginId>_versions.json`
|
||||
- `website/<pluginId>_versioned_docs`
|
||||
- `website/<pluginId>_versioned_sidebars`
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
You can omit the `id` attribute (defaults to `default`) for one of the docs plugin instances.
|
||||
|
||||
The instance paths will be simpler, and retro-compatible with a single-instance setup.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Tagging new versions {#tagging-new-versions}
|
||||
|
||||
Each plugin instance will have its own cli command to tag a new version. They will be displayed if you run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash npm2yarn
|
||||
npm run docusaurus -- --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To version the product/default docs plugin instance:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash npm2yarn
|
||||
npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.0.0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To version the non-default/community docs plugin instance:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash npm2yarn
|
||||
npm run docusaurus docs:version:community 1.0.0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Docs navbar items {#docs-navbar-items}
|
||||
|
||||
Each docs-related [theme navbar items](../../api/themes/theme-configuration.md#navbar) take an optional `docsPluginId` attribute.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you want to have one version dropdown for each mobile SDK (iOS and Android), you could do:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
themeConfig: {
|
||||
navbar: {
|
||||
items: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'docsVersionDropdown',
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
docsPluginId: 'ios',
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'docsVersionDropdown',
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
docsPluginId: 'android',
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
};

title: Sidebar
|

slug: /sidebar
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Creating a sidebar is useful to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Group multiple **related documents**
|
||||
- **Display a sidebar** on each of those documents
|
||||
- Provide a **paginated navigation**, with next/previous button
|
||||
|
||||
To use sidebars on your Docusaurus site:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Define a file that exports a [sidebar object](#sidebar-object).
|
||||
1. Pass this object into the `@docusaurus/plugin-docs` plugin directly or via `@docusaurus/preset-classic`.
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
presets: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/preset-classic',
|
||||
{
|
||||
docs: {
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
sidebarPath: require.resolve('./sidebars.js'),
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Default sidebar
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Docusaurus [automatically generates a sidebar](#sidebar-item-autogenerated) for you, by using the filesystem structure of the `docs` folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated',
|
||||
dirName: '.', // generate sidebar slice from the docs folder (or versioned_docs/<version>)
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also define your sidebars explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Sidebar object {#sidebar-object}
|
||||
|
||||
A sidebar is a **tree of [sidebar items](#understanding-sidebar-items)**.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type Sidebar =
|
||||
// Normal syntax
|
||||
| SidebarItem[]
|
||||
|
||||
// Shorthand syntax
|
||||
| Record<
|
||||
string, // category label
|
||||
SidebarItem[] // category items
|
||||
>;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A sidebars file can contain **multiple sidebar objects**.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarsFile = Record<
|
||||
string, // sidebar id
|
||||
Sidebar
|
||||
>;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Getting Started',
|
||||
items: ['doc1'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Docusaurus',
|
||||
items: ['doc2', 'doc3'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Notice the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- There is a single sidebar `mySidebar`, containing 5 [sidebar items](#understanding-sidebar-items)
|
||||
- `Getting Started` and `Docusaurus` are sidebar categories
|
||||
- `doc1`, `doc2` and `doc3` are sidebar documents
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
Use the **shorthand syntax** to express this sidebar more concisely:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: {
|
||||
'Getting started': ['doc1'],
|
||||
Docusaurus: ['doc2', 'doc3'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Using multiple sidebars {#using-multiple-sidebars}
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a sidebar for each **set of Markdown files** that you want to **group together**.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
The Docusaurus site is a good example of using multiple sidebars:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Docs](../../introduction.md)
|
||||
- [API](../../cli.md)
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
tutorialSidebar: {
|
||||
'Category A': ['doc1', 'doc2'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
apiSidebar: ['doc3', 'doc4'],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::note
|
||||
|
||||
The keys `tutorialSidebar` and `apiSidebar` are sidebar **technical ids** and do not matter much.
|
||||

When browsing:
|
||||
|
||||
- `doc1` or `doc2`: the `tutorialSidebar` will be displayed
|
||||
- `doc3` or `doc4`: the `apiSidebar` will be displayed
|
||||
|
||||
A **paginated navigation** link documents inside the same sidebar with **next and previous buttons**.

|
||||
## Understanding sidebar items {#understanding-sidebar-items}
|
||||
|
||||
`SidebarItem` is an item defined in a Sidebar tree.
|
||||
|
||||
There are different types of sidebar items:
|
||||
|
||||
- **[Doc](#sidebar-item-doc)**: link to a doc page, assigning it to the sidebar
|
||||
- **[Ref](#sidebar-item-ref)**: link to a doc page, without assigning it to the sidebar
|
||||
- **[Link](#sidebar-item-link)**: link to any internal or external page
|
||||
- **[Category](#sidebar-item-category)**: create a hierarchy of sidebar items
|
||||
- **[Autogenerated](#sidebar-item-autogenerated)**: generate a sidebar slice automatically
|
||||
|
||||
### Doc: link to a doc {#sidebar-item-doc}
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `doc` type to link to a doc page and assign that doc to a sidebar:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarItemDoc =
|
||||
// Normal syntax
|
||||
| {
|
||||
type: 'doc';
|
||||
id: string;
|
||||
label: string; // Sidebar label text
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Shorthand syntax
|
||||
| string; // docId shortcut
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: [
|
||||
// Normal syntax:
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'doc',
|
||||
id: 'doc1', // document id
|
||||
label: 'Getting started', // sidebar label
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
|
||||
// Shorthand syntax:
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
'doc2', // document id
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `sidebar_label` markdown frontmatter has a higher precedence over the `label` key in `SidebarItemDoc`.
|
||||
|
||||
:::note
|
||||
|
||||
Don't assign the same doc to multiple sidebars: use a [ref](#sidebar-item-ref) instead.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Ref: link to a doc, without sidebar {#sidebar-item-ref}
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `ref` type to link to a doc page without assigning it to a sidebar.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarItemRef = {
|
||||
type: 'ref';
|
||||
id: string;
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'ref',
|
||||
id: 'doc1', // Document id (string).
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When browsing `doc1`, Docusaurus **will not display** the `mySidebar` sidebar.
|
||||
|
||||
### Link: link to any page {#sidebar-item-link}
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `link` type to link to any page (internal or external) that is not a doc.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarItemLink = {
|
||||
type: 'link';
|
||||
label: string;
|
||||
href: string;
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
myLinksSidebar: [
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
// External link
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'link',
|
||||
label: 'Facebook', // The link label
|
||||
href: 'https://facebook.com', // The external URL
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
// Internal link
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'link',
|
||||
label: 'Home', // The link label
|
||||
href: '/', // The internal path
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Category: create a hierarchy {#sidebar-item-category}
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `category` type to create a hierarchy of sidebar items.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarItemCategory = {
|
||||
type: 'category';
|
||||
label: string; // Sidebar label text.
|
||||
items: SidebarItem[]; // Array of sidebar items.
|
||||
|
||||
// Category options:
|
||||
collapsed: boolean; // Set the category to be collapsed or open by default
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
docs: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Guides',
|
||||
collapsed: false,
|
||||
items: [
|
||||
'creating-pages',
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Docs',
|
||||
items: ['introduction', 'sidebar', 'markdown-features', 'versioning'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
Use the **shorthand syntax** when you don't need **category options**:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
docs: {
|
||||
Guides: [
|
||||
'creating-pages',
|
||||
{
|
||||
Docs: ['introduction', 'sidebar', 'markdown-features', 'versioning'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
#### Collapsible categories {#collapsible-categories}
|
||||
|
||||
For sites with a sizable amount of content, we support the option to expand/collapse a category to toggle the display of its contents. Categories are collapsible by default. If you want them to be always expanded, set `themeConfig.sidebarCollapsible` to `false`:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
themeConfig: {
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
sidebarCollapsible: false,
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Expanded categories by default {#expanded-categories-by-default}
|
||||
|
||||
For docs that have collapsible categories, you may want more fine-grain control over certain categories. If you want specific categories to be always expanded, you can set `collapsed` to `false`:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
docs: {
|
||||
Guides: [
|
||||
'creating-pages',
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Docs',
|
||||
collapsed: false,
|
||||
items: ['markdown-features', 'sidebar', 'versioning'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Autogenerated: generate a sidebar {#sidebar-item-autogenerated}
|
||||
|
||||
Docusaurus can **create a sidebar automatically** from your **filesystem structure**: each folder creates a sidebar category.
|
||||
|
||||
An `autogenerated` item is converted by Docusaurus to a **sidebar slice**: a list of items of type `doc` and `category`.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type SidebarItemAutogenerated = {
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated';
|
||||
dirName: string; // Source folder to generate the sidebar slice from (relative to docs)
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Docusaurus can generate a sidebar from your docs folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
myAutogeneratedSidebar: [
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated',
|
||||
dirName: '.', // '.' means the current docs folder
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use **multiple `autogenerated` items** in a sidebar, and interleave them with regular sidebar items:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="sidebars.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
mySidebar: [
|
||||
'intro',
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Tutorials',
|
||||
items: [
|
||||
'tutorial-intro',
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated',
|
||||
dirName: 'tutorials/easy', // Generate sidebar slice from docs/tutorials/easy
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
'tutorial-medium',
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated',
|
||||
dirName: 'tutorials/advanced', // Generate sidebar slice from docs/tutorials/hard
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
'tutorial-end',
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'autogenerated',
|
||||
dirName: 'guides', // Generate sidebar slice from docs/guides
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'category',
|
||||
label: 'Community',
|
||||
items: ['team', 'chat'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Autogenerated sidebar metadatas {#autogenerated-sidebar-metadatas}
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the sidebar slice will be generated in **alphabetical order** (using files and folders names).
|
||||
|
||||
If the generated sidebar does not look good, you can assign additional metadatas to docs and categories.
|
||||
|
||||
**For docs**: use additional frontmatter:
|
||||
|
||||
```md title="docs/tutorials/tutorial-easy.md" {1-4}
|
||||
---
|
||||
sidebar_label: Easy
|
||||
sidebar_position: 2
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Easy Tutorial
|
||||
|
||||
This is the easy tutorial!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**For categories**: add a `_category_.json` or `_category_.yml` file in the appropriate folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```json title="docs/tutorials/_category_.json"
|
||||
{
|
||||
"label": "Tutorial",
|
||||
"position": 3
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml title="docs/tutorials/_category_.yml"
|
||||
label: 'Tutorial'
|
||||
position: 2.5 # float position is supported
|
||||
collapsed: false # keep the category open by default
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
|
||||
The position metadata is only used **inside a sidebar slice**: Docusaurus does not re-order other items of your sidebar.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using number prefixes
|
||||
|
||||
A simple way to order an autogenerated sidebar is to prefix docs and folders by number prefixes:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docs
|
||||
├── 01-Intro.md
|
||||
├── 02-Tutorial Easy
|
||||
│ ├── 01-First Part.md
|
||||
│ ├── 02-Second Part.md
|
||||
│ └── 03-End.md
|
||||
├── 03-Tutorial Hard
|
||||
│ ├── 01-First Part.md
|
||||
│ ├── 02-Second Part.md
|
||||
│ ├── 03-Third Part.md
|
||||
│ └── 04-End.md
|
||||
└── 04-End.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To make it **easier to adopt**, Docusaurus supports **multiple number prefix patterns**.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Docusaurus will **remove the number prefix** from the doc id, title, label and URL paths.
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
**Prefer using [additional metadatas](#autogenerated-sidebar-metadatas)**.
|
||||
|
||||
Updating a number prefix can be annoying, as it can require **updating multiple existing markdown links**:
|
||||
|
||||
```diff title="docs/02-Tutorial Easy/01-First Part.md"
|
||||
- Check the [Tutorial End](../04-End.md);
|
||||
+ Check the [Tutorial End](../05-End.md);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
#### Customize the sidebar items generator
|
||||
|
||||
You can provide a custom `sidebarItemsGenerator` function in the docs plugin (or preset) config:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs',
|
||||
{
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
sidebarItemsGenerator: async function ({
|
||||
defaultSidebarItemsGenerator,
|
||||
numberPrefixParser,
|
||||
item,
|
||||
version,
|
||||
docs,
|
||||
}) {
|
||||
// Example: return an hardcoded list of static sidebar items
|
||||
return [
|
||||
{type: 'doc', id: 'doc1'},
|
||||
{type: 'doc', id: 'doc2'},
|
||||
];
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
**Re-use and enhance the default generator** instead of writing a generator from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
**Add, update, filter, re-order** the sidebar items according to your use-case:
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
// Reverse the sidebar items ordering (including nested category items)
|
||||
function reverseSidebarItems(items) {
|
||||
// Reverse items in categories
|
||||
const result = items.map((item) => {
|
||||
if (item.type === 'category') {
|
||||
return {...item, items: reverseSidebarItems(item.items)};
|
||||
}
|
||||
return item;
|
||||
});
|
||||
// Reverse items at current level
|
||||
result.reverse();
|
||||
return result;
|
||||
}
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
[
|
||||
'@docusaurus/plugin-content-docs',
|
||||
{
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
sidebarItemsGenerator: async function ({
|
||||
defaultSidebarItemsGenerator,
|
||||
...args
|
||||
}) {
|
||||
const sidebarItems = await defaultSidebarItemsGenerator(args);
|
||||
return reverseSidebarItems(sidebarItems);
|
||||
},
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Hideable sidebar {#hideable-sidebar}
|
||||
|
||||
Using the enabled `themeConfig.hideableSidebar` option, you can make the entire sidebar hidden, allowing you to better focus your users on the content. This is especially useful when content consumption on medium screens (e.g. on tablets).
|
||||
|
||||
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
themeConfig: {
|
||||
// highlight-start
|
||||
hideableSidebar: true,
|
||||
// highlight-end
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Passing custom props {#passing-custom-props}
|
||||
|
||||
To pass in custom props to a swizzled sidebar item, add the optional `customProps` object to any of the items:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'doc',
|
||||
id: 'doc1',
|
||||
customProps: {
|
||||
/* props */
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```

You can use the version script to create a new documentation version based on the latest content in the `docs` directory. That specific set of documentation will then be preserved and accessible even as the documentation in the `docs` directory changes moving forward.
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
Think about it before starting to version your documentation - it can become difficult for contributors to help improve it!
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the time, you don't need versioning as it will just increase your build time, and introduce complexity to your codebase. Versioning is **best suited for websites with high-traffic and rapid changes to documentation between versions**. If your documentation rarely changes, don't add versioning to your documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
To better understand how versioning works and see if it suits your needs, you can read on below.
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory structure {#directory-structure}
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
website
|
||||
├── sidebars.json # sidebar for master (next) version
|
||||
├── docs # docs directory for master (next) version
|
||||
│ ├── foo
|
||||
│ │ └── bar.md # https://mysite.com/docs/next/foo/bar
|

│ └── hello.md # https://mysite.com/docs/next/hello
|
||||
├── versions.json # file to indicate what versions are available
|
||||
├── versioned_docs
|
||||
│ ├── version-1.1.0
|
||||
│ │ ├── foo
|
||||
│ │ │ └── bar.md # https://mysite.com/docs/foo/bar
|

|
||||
The table below explains how a versioned file maps to its version and the generated URL.
|
||||
|
||||
| Path | Version | URL |
|
||||
| --------------------------------------- | -------------- | ----------------- |
|
||||
| `versioned_docs/version-1.0.0/hello.md` | 1.0.0 | /docs/1.0.0/hello |
|
||||
| `versioned_docs/version-1.1.0/hello.md` | 1.1.0 (latest) | /docs/hello |
|
||||
| `docs/hello.md` | next | /docs/next/hello |
|
||||
|
||||
### Tagging a new version {#tagging-a-new-version}
|
||||
|
||||
1. First, make sure your content in the `docs` directory is ready to be frozen as a version. A version always should be based from master.
|
||||
1. Enter a new version number.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash npm2yarn
|
||||
npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.1.0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When tagging a new version, the document versioning mechanism will:
|
||||
|
||||
- Copy the full `docs/` folder contents into a new `versioned_docs/version-<version>/` folder.
|
||||
- Create a versioned sidebars file based from your current [sidebar](docs-introduction.md#sidebar) configuration (if it exists) - saved as `versioned_sidebars/version-<version>-sidebars.json`.
|
||||
- Append the new version number to `versions.json`.

||||
1. Place the new file into the corresponding version folder.
|
||||
1. Include the reference for the new file into the corresponding sidebar file, according to version number.
|
||||
|
||||
**Master docs**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# The new file.
|
||||
docs/new.md
|
||||
|
||||
# Edit the corresponding sidebar file.
|
||||
sidebar.js
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Older docs**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# The new file.
|
||||
versioned_docs/version-1.0.0/new.md
|
||||
|
||||
# Edit the corresponding sidebar file.
|
||||
versioned_sidebars/version-1.0.0-sidebars.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Linking docs {#linking-docs}
|
||||
|
||||
- Remember to include the `.md` extension.
|
||||
- Files will be linked to correct corresponding version.
|
||||
- Relative paths work as well.
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
The [@hello](hello.md#paginate) document is great!
|
||||
|
||||
See the [Tutorial](../getting-started/tutorial.md) for more info.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Versions {#versions}
|
||||
|
||||
Each directory in `versioned_docs/` will represent a documentation version.
|
||||
|
||||
### Updating an existing version {#updating-an-existing-version}
|
||||
|
||||
You can update multiple docs versions at the same time because each directory in `versioned_docs/` represents specific routes when published.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Edit any file.
|
||||
1. Commit and push changes.
|
||||
1. It will be published to the version.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: When you change any file in `versioned_docs/version-2.6/`, it will only affect the docs for version `2.6`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Deleting an existing version {#deleting-an-existing-version}
|
||||
|
||||
You can delete/remove versions as well.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Remove the version from `versions.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```diff {4}
|
||||
[
|
||||
"2.0.0",
|
||||
"1.9.0",
|
||||
- "1.8.0"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Delete the versioned docs directory. Example: `versioned_docs/version-1.8.0`.
|
||||
3. Delete the versioned sidebars file. Example: `versioned_sidebars/version-1.8.0-sidebars.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommended practices {#recommended-practices}
|
||||
|
||||
### Figure out the behavior for the "current" version {#figure-out-the-behavior-for-the-current-version}
|
||||
|
||||
The "current" version is the version name for the `./docs` folder.
|
||||
|
||||
There are different ways to manage versioning, but two very common patterns are:
|
||||
|
||||
- You release v1, and start immediately working on v2 (including its docs)
|
||||
- You release v1, and will maintain it for some time before thinking about v2.
|
||||
|
||||
Docusaurus defaults work great for the first usecase.
|
||||
|
||||
**For the 2nd usecase**: if you release v1 and don't plan to work on v2 anytime soon, instead of versioning v1 and having to maintain the docs in 2 folders (`./docs` + `./versioned_docs/version-1.0.0`), you may consider using the following configuration instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"lastVersion": "current",
|
||||
"versions": {
|
||||
"current": {
|
||||
"label": "1.0.0",
|
||||
"path": "1.0.0"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The docs in `./docs` will be served at `/docs/1.0.0` instead of `/docs/next`, and `1.0.0` will become the default version we link to in the navbar dropdown, and you will only need to maintain a single `./docs` folder.
|
||||
|
||||
See [docs plugin configuration](../../api/plugins/plugin-content-docs.md) for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
### Version your documentation only when needed {#version-your-documentation-only-when-needed}
|
||||
|
||||
For example, you are building a documentation for your npm package `foo` and you are currently in version 1.0.0. You then release a patch version for a minor bug fix and it's now 1.0.1.
|
||||
|
||||
Should you cut a new documentation version 1.0.1? **You probably shouldn't**. 1.0.1 and 1.0.0 docs shouldn't differ according to semver because there are no new features!. Cutting a new version for it will only just create unnecessary duplicated files.
|
||||
|
||||
### Keep the number of versions small {#keep-the-number-of-versions-small}
|
||||
|
||||
As a good rule of thumb, try to keep the number of your versions below 10. **It is very likely** that you will have a lot of obsolete versioned documentation that nobody even reads anymore. For example, [Jest](https://jestjs.io/versions) is currently in version `24.9`, and only maintains several latest documentation version with the lowest being `22.X`. Keep it small 😊
|
||||
|
||||
### Use absolute import within the docs {#use-absolute-import-within-the-docs}
|
||||
|
||||
Don't use relative paths import within the docs. Because when we cut a version the paths no longer work (the nesting level is different, among other reasons). You can utilize the `@site` alias provided by Docusaurus, that points to the `website` directory. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```diff
|
||||
- import Foo from '../src/components/Foo';
|
||||
+ import Foo from '@site/src/components/Foo';
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Global or versioned colocated assets {#global-or-versioned-colocated-assets}
|
||||
|
||||
You should decide if assets like images and files are per version or shared between versions
|
||||
|
||||
If your assets should be versioned, put them in the docs version, and use relative paths:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
[download this file](./file.pdf)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If your assets are global, put them in `/static` and use absolute paths:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
[download this file](/file.pdf)
|
||||
```
