Lining pages

Use full path to the file to avoid linking to wrong page.

Using custom React components

All documentation files use extension:

• .mdx - Developer documentation
• .md - Dashboard documentation

If your page uses custom react components, you are required to use .mdx file extension. Import statement is also required:

## <!-- /docs/developer/export/export-overview.mdx file -->

## title: Exporting Products

import Foo from "@site/components/Foo";

...

<Foo />

For charts we are using Mermaid package.

Adding Content

Adding a new docs page to an existing sidebar

1. Create the doc as a new markdown file in /docs, example docs/newly-created-doc.md:

---
id: newly-created-doc
title: This Doc Needs To Be Edited
---

My new content here..

1. Refer to that doc's ID in an existing sidebar in sidebar.js:

// Add newly-created-doc to the Getting Started category of docs
{
  "docs": {
    "Getting Started": [
      "quick-start",
      "newly-created-doc" // new doc here
    ],
    ...
  },
  ...
}

Adding items to your site's top navigation bar

1. Add links to docs, custom pages or external links by editing the headerLinks field of siteConfig.js:

{
  headerLinks: [
    ...
    /* you can add docs */
    {
      type: "doc",
      docId: "dashboard/before-you-start",
      label: "Dashboard Manual",
      position: "left",
    },
    /* you can add custom pages */
    { page: 'help', label: 'Help' },
    /* you can add external links */
    { href: 'https://github.com/facebook/Docusaurus', label: 'GitHub' },
    ...
  ],
  ...
}

Adding custom pages

1. Docusaurus uses React components to build pages. The components are saved as .js files in ./pages/en:
2. If you want your page to show up in your navigation header, you will need to update siteConfig.js to add to the headerLinks element:

{
  headerLinks: [
    ...
    { page: 'my-new-custom-page', label: 'My New Custom Page' },
    ...
  ],
  ...
}
