README

A Gatsby transformer plugin for authoring content in HTML, part of gatsby-starter-apidocs.


One functional area of the plugin is enriching raw HTML content by:

  • rewriting local links to point to the generated Gatsby pages,

  • adding section anchor links,

  • processing linked images into multi-resolution responsive img tags,

  • applying Prism.js highlighting to code blocks,

  • embedding code examples from external files,

  • adding synthetic identifiers to paragraph to make it possible to link to them from content search results.

Another functional area of the plugin is extracting paragraph-sized text snippets from the page, so that they can be indexed in the client-side text search implemented by the gatsby-plugin-content-search plugin.

The enriched HTML and lists of extracted text snippets are available in Gatsby's GraphQL model for use by other plugins.
