npm install gatsby-theme-doczgatsby-theme-docz
The official Gatsby theme for Docz.
Installation
``sh`
yarn add gatsby gatsby-theme-docz react react-dom
Usage
`js`
// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: ['gatsby-theme-docz'],
}
$3
Set your config by using doczrc.js file (see all available) or if you want to set some defaults for your theme, use options on plugin definition:
`js`
// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
{
resolve: 'gatsby-theme-docz',
options: {
/ your custom options /
},
},
],
}
$3
To set the dark version as default, just set your doczrc.js like that:
`js`
// doczrc.js
export default {
themeConfig: {
mode: 'dark',
},
}

Components shadowing is one of the best things included in the new Gatsby theme feature, with it is possible to replace theme files just by creating your own file following a file naming convention.
Example: If you're using our gatsby-theme-docz which has a Header component located at src/components/Header/index.js you can override the component by creating src/gatsby-theme-docz/components/Header/index.js. Cool right?
$3
So, now that you know about how component shadowing works on Gatsby themes, if you don't want to override the entire component but just change your logo inside it, your can shadow the component used in the header just by creating your own at src/gatsby-theme-docz/components/Logo/index.js
`js
// src/gatsby-theme-docz/components/Logo/index.js
import React from 'react'
import logo from './logo.svg'
export const Logo = () =>
`
Easy, right?

One of the coolest thing of Docz is that you can create your own theme if you want from scratch and use all benefits of it. The oldest way to acomplish that is by using the theme property inside the doczrc.js file. Now, if you want to create your own theme, just create a file located at src/gatsby-theme-docz/index.js
`js
import React from 'react'
import { theme, useConfig, ComponentsProvider } from 'docz'
import { ThemeProvider } from '@emotion/react'
import baseComponents from 'gatsby-theme-docz/src/components'
import { Menu } from './MyBeautifulMenu'
const componentsMap = {
...baseComponents,
/ your custom components /,
}
const Theme = ({ children }) => {
const config = useConfig()
return (
{children}
)
}
const themeConfig = {
colors: {
primary: 'tomato',
secondary: 'khaki',
gray: 'lightslategray',
},
}
export default theme(themeConfig)(Theme)
`

Sometime you need to wrap your entire application in order to add some Provider or just to load some script. You can do this easily inside our theme by creating a file located at src/gatsby-theme-docz/wrapper.js
`js
// src/gatsby-theme-docz/index.js
import React from 'react'
export default ({ children }) => (
My custom wrapper
{children}
)
`
Theme UI integrated
As default theme system we are using the Theme-UI, it's a library for build consistent, themeable React apps based on constraint-based design principles.
You can modify our based theme creating your own style, combining these modifications with the component shadowing and creating a totally different documentation.
Check our base theme object to see the properties.
To create your own theme definition use the
and set your properties in the themeConfig like that:`js
// doczrc.js
export default {
themeConfig: {
colors: {
header: {
bg: 'tomato',
},
},
},
}
`Or, to create your own theme it's easy, just create this file in the root of your project:
.`js
import baseTheme from 'gatsby-theme-docz/src/theme'
import { merge } from 'lodash/fp'export default merge(baseTheme, {
colors: {
header: {
bg: 'tomato',
},
},
})
`$3
Both code highlights shortcodes and the
component are using prism-react-renderer to highlight the code. If you want to modify and use another PrismJS theme, you can do that just passing a prismTheme property for your theme.`js
// doczrc.js
import myCustomPrismTheme from './my-prism-theme'export default {
themeConfig: {
prismTheme: myCustomPrismTheme,
},
}
`Or you want to have different themes for
and dark color mode, you can change the prism default property like that:`js
// doczrc.js
import customLightTheme from './my-light-theme'
import customDarkTheme from './my-dark-theme'export default {
themeConfig: {
prism: {
light: customLightTheme,
dark: customDarkTheme,
},
},
}
`$3
You can add shortcodes to your docs site which can be used throughout
your docs pages by extending the components passed to MDXProvider. You
can do this by using component shadowing and creating the following file
in the root of your project:
.#### Example
components.jsjs
import baseComponents from 'gatsby-theme-documentation/src/components'
import MyCustomH1 from '../components/my-custom-h1'export default {
...baseComponents,
h1: MyCustomH1,
}
`Getting data
Using our Gatsby Theme you can enjoy all our hooks to get data for your pages and also get data from Gatsby. So, you can create isolated pages on Gatsby using gatsby pages and get data from Docz or maybe pass data for your Docz documents using source from gatsby.
Imagine, that you have your home page inside
and you want to show all documents parsed from Docz. You can easy get this by doing:`js
import React from 'react'
import { useDocs } from 'docz'const Home = () => {
const docs = useDocs()
return
{/ my coolest home /}
}export default Home
`Or you can have a mdx document inside Docz that has data from Gatsby too:
markdown
---
name: MyDoc
---import { MyComponentWithSomeData } from './my-component-with-data'
``Cool right?
