Configuration

You can configure Docsify by defining window.$docsify as an object:

<script>
  window.$docsify = {
    repo: 'docsifyjs/docsify',
    maxLevel: 3,
    coverpage: true,
  };
</script>

The config can also be defined as a function, in which case the first argument is the Docsify vm instance. The function should return a config object. This can be useful for referencing vm in places like the markdown configuration:

<script>
  window.$docsify = function(vm) {
    return {
      markdown: {
        renderer: {
          code(code, lang) {
            // ... use `vm` ...
          },
        },
      },
    };
  };
</script>

window.$docsify = {
  el: '#app',
};

repo

  • Default: null

Configure the repository url, or a string of username/repo can add the GitHub Corner widget in the top right corner of the site.

  loadNavbar: 'nav.md',
};

loadSidebar

  • Type: Boolean|String
  • Default: false

Loads sidebar from the Markdown file _sidebar.md if true, else loads it from the path specified.

  homepage: 'home.md',

  // Or use the readme in your repo
  homepage:
    'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docsifyjs/docsify/master/README.md',
};

If you have a link to the homepage in the sidebar and want it to be shown as active when accessing the root url, make sure to update your sidebar accordingly:

basePath

  • Type: String

Base path of the website. You can set it to another directory or another domain name.

};

Load the right 404 page according to the localization:

window.$docsify = {
  notFoundPage: {

      template: `
        <button @click="count += 1">
          You clicked me {{ count }} times
        </button>
      `,
      data() {
        return {
          count: 0,
        };
      },
    },
  },
};

      };
    },
  },
};

  {{ count }}
  <button @click="count += 1">+</button>
</p>

vueMounts

  • type: Object

Specifies DOM elements to mount as Vue instances and their associated options. Mount elements are specified using a CSS selector as the key with an object containing Vue options as their value.

window.$docsify = {
  vueMounts: {
    '#counter': {
      data() {
        return {
          count: 0,
        };
      },
    },
  },

<div id="counter">
  <button @click="count -= 1">-</button>
  {{ count }}
  <button @click="count += 1">+</button>
</div>
- {{ count }} +
