= Add Static Files | ||
|
||
A static UI file is any file provided by the UI that is added directly to your site. | ||
A common example of a static file is a favicon image. | ||
One way to add static files is by using the xref:antora:playbook:ui-supplemental-files.adoc[supplemental UI], which is defined in your Antora playbook. | ||
This document explains how to add static files using a UI bundle instead. | ||
|
||
== Set up the static files folder | ||
|
||
You'll first need a place to store the static files in the UI project. | ||
Let's create a folder under [.path]_src_ named [.path]_static_ for this purpose. | ||
|
||
$ mkdir src/static | ||
|
||
You can add static files, such as a favicon image (e.g., [.path]_favicon.ico_), to this folder. | ||
The UI build will add files in this folder to the root of the UI bundle, dropping the [.path]_static_ folder prefix from the path. | ||
|
||
Antora automatically passes through static files in the bundle to the UI output folder (`+_+` by default), ignoring any hidden files (i.e., files that begin with a dot). | ||
A static file is any file that's not designated as a layout, partial, or helper. | ||
That means our favicon image file will end up at the path [.path]_++_/favicon.ico++_. | ||
|
||
.Contents of site | ||
.... | ||
_/ | ||
favicon.ico | ||
css/ | ||
site.css | ||
... | ||
sitemap.xml | ||
... | ||
.... | ||
|
||
If that's where you want the file to go, there's nothing else you have to do. | ||
Otherwise, you have the option of promoting select static files to the site root. | ||
|
||
== Promote static files | ||
|
||
If you want to promote certain static files out of the UI output folder, you need to identify them. | ||
Antora looks for a file named [.path]_ui.yml_, the UI descriptor, in the UI bundle to configure the behavior of the UI. | ||
|
||
Start by creating the file [.path]_src/ui.yml_ in your UI project. | ||
The UI build copies this file, if present, to the root of the UI bundle. | ||
|
||
This file does not have any required keys. | ||
The key we're interested in is `static_files`. | ||
This key identifies files by relative path in the UI bundle that should be promoted from the UI output folder to the site root. | ||
The files must be specified as an array, where each entry is either a relative paths or a path glob. | ||
Unlike other static files, promoted static files can begin with a dot. | ||
|
||
Here's how to configure the UI descriptor to promote the favicon image file to the site root. | ||
|
||
.src/ui.yml | ||
[,yaml] | ||
---- | ||
static_files: | ||
- favicon.ico | ||
---- | ||
|
||
If you have multiple favicon files with different file extensions, you can match all of them using a glob. | ||
|
||
.src/ui.yml | ||
[,yaml] | ||
---- | ||
static_files: | ||
- favicon* | ||
---- | ||
|
||
With this configuration in place, Antora will read the favicon image from the UI bundle and copy it to the root of the site. | ||
|
||
.Contents of site | ||
.... | ||
_/ | ||
css/ | ||
site.css | ||
... | ||
favicon.ico | ||
sitemap.xml | ||
... | ||
.... | ||
|
||
Let's now look at how to put the static files to use. | ||
|
||
== Use the static files | ||
|
||
Often when you add static files to your site, you need to reference them somewhere. | ||
In the case of a favicon image, it must be referenced in the `<head>` of the HTML page. | ||
If you are referencing a promoted static file, you'll use the prefix `+{{{siteRootPath}}}+`. | ||
Otherwise, you'll use the prefix `+{{{uiRootPath}}}+`. | ||
|
||
Let's update the [.path]_src/partials/head-icons.hbs_ partial to reference the favicon image at the root of the site. | ||
|
||
.src/partials/head-icons.hbs | ||
[,yaml] | ||
---- | ||
<link rel="icon" href="{{{siteRootPath}}}/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"> | ||
---- | ||
|
||
Rebuild the UI with `gulp bundle`. | ||
You should now see that your site has a favicon image that's provided by the UI bundle. |

= Copy to clipboard | ||
|
||
This page describes the copy to clipboard feature added to source blocks when using the default UI. | ||
|
||
== Source blocks | ||
|
||
The default UI provides JavaScript that adds a clipboard button to all source blocks. | ||
The clipboard button shows up next to the language label when the mouse is hovered over the block. | ||
When the user clicks the clipboard button, the contents of the source block will be copied to the user's clipboard. | ||
|
||
You can try this behavior below: | ||
|
||
[,ruby] | ||
---- | ||
puts 'Take me to your clipboard!' | ||
---- | ||
|
||
IMPORTANT: Copy to clipboard only works for a local site or if the site is hosted over https (SSL). | ||
The copy to clipboard does not work on an insecure site (http) since the clipboard API is not available in that environment. | ||
In that case, the behavior gracefully degrades so the user will not see the clipboard button or an error. | ||
|
||
== Console blocks | ||
|
||
The default UI also adds a clipboard button to all console blocks. | ||
A console block is either a literal paragraph that begins with a `$` or a source block with the language `console`. | ||
|
||
The script provided by the default UI will automatically strip the `$` prompt at the beginning of each line and join the lines with `&&`. | ||
In <<ex-console-copy-paste>>, since the language is `console` and each line begins with a `$`, the console copy-paste logic is triggered. | ||
|
||
.Copy to clipboard for a multi-line console command | ||
[#ex-console-copy-paste] | ||
------ | ||
[,console] | ||
---- | ||
$ mkdir example | ||
$ cd example | ||
---- | ||
------ | ||
|
||
When a user uses the copy-to-clipboard button, they will copy the combined command `mkdir example && cd example` instead of the literal text shown. | ||
This can be useful for tutorial examples that a user is expected to copy-paste to run. | ||
You can try this behavior below: | ||
|
||
[,console] | ||
---- | ||
$ mkdir example | ||
$ cd example | ||

= Create a UI Helper | ||
|
||
This page explains how to create a UI helper for use in a page template (layout or partial). | ||
A helper is a JavaScript function that's invoked by Handlebars when it comes across a helper call in a template. | ||
|
||
== Helper anatomy | ||
|
||
A helper must be defined as a JavaScript file in the [.path]_helpers_ directory of the UI bundle. | ||
The basename of the file without the file extension will be used as the function name. | ||
For example, if the helper is located at [.path]_helpers/join.js_, the name of the function will be `join`. | ||
|
||
You don't have to register the helper as Antora does that for you automatically. | ||
This automatic behavior replaces this Handlebars API call (which you *don't* have to do): | ||
|
||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
Handlebars.registerHelper('join', function () { ... }) | ||
---- | ||
|
||
The helper file should export exactly one default function. | ||
The name of the function in the file does not matter. | ||
|
||
Here's a template of a helper function you can use as a starting point: | ||
|
||
.new-helper.js | ||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
'use strict' | ||
module.exports = () => { | ||
return true | ||
} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
The return value of the function will be used in the logic in the template. | ||
If the helper is used in a conditional, it should return a boolean value (as in the previous example). | ||
If the helper is used to create output, it should return a string. | ||
If the helper is used in an iteration loop, it should return a collection. | ||
|
||
We can now use our conditional helper in a template as follows: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#if (new-helper)}} | ||
always true! | ||
{{/if}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
The round brackets are always required around a helper function call (except in cases when they're implied by Handlebars). | ||
|
||
The helper can access top-level variables in the template by accepting the template context as the final parameter. | ||
The top-level variables are stored in in the `data.root` property of this object. | ||
|
||
.new-helper.js | ||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
'use strict' | ||
module.exports = ({ data: { root } }) => { | ||
return root.site.url === 'https://docs.example.org' | ||
} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
Now our condition will change: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#if (new-helper)}} | ||
Only true if the site URL is https://docs.example.org. | ||
{{/if}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
A helper can also accept input parameters. | ||
These parameters get inserted in the parameter list before the context object. | ||
Handlebars only calls the function with the input parameters passed by the template, so it's important to use a fixed number of them. | ||
Otherwise, the position of the context object will jump around. | ||
|
||
.new-helper.js | ||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
'use strict' | ||
module.exports = (urlToCheck, { data: { root } }) => { | ||
return root.site.url === urlToCheck | ||
} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
Now we can accept the URL to check as an input parameter: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#if (new-helper 'https://docs.example.org')}} | ||
Only true if the site URL matches the one specified. | ||
{{/if}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
You can consult the https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/[Handlebars language guide] for more information about creating helpers. | ||
|
||
== Use the content catalog in a helper | ||
|
||
You can work directly with Antora's content catalog in a helper to work with other pages and resources. | ||
Let's define a helper that assembles a collection of pages that have a given tag defined in the `page-tags` attribute. | ||
The helper call will look something like this: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#each (pages-with-tag 'tutorial')}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
We'll start by defining the helper in a file named [.path]_pages-with-tag.js_. | ||
In this first iteration, we'll have it return a collection of raw virtual file objects from Antora's content catalog. | ||
Populate the file with the following contents: | ||
|
||
.pages-with-tag.js | ||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
'use strict' | ||
module.exports = (tag, { data }) => { | ||
const { contentCatalog } = data.root | ||
return contentCatalog.getPages(({ asciidoc, out }) => { | ||
if (!out || !asciidoc) return | ||
const pageTags = asciidoc.attributes['page-tags'] | ||
return pageTags && pageTags.split(', ').includes(tag) | ||
}) | ||
} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
Here we're obtaining a reference to the content catalog, then filtering the pages by our criteria using the `getPage()` method. | ||
It's always good to check for the presence of the `out` property to ensure the page is publishable. | ||
|
||
Here's how this helper is used in the template: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#each (pages-with-tag 'tutorial')}} | ||
<a href="{{{relativize ./pub.url}}}">{{{./asciidoc.doctitle}}}</a> | ||
{{/each}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
You'll notice that the page objects in the collection differ from the typical page UI model. | ||
We can convert each page to a page UI model before returning the collection. | ||
Let's write the extension again, this time running each page through Antora's `buildPageUiModel` function: | ||
|
||
.pages-with-tag.js | ||
[,js] | ||
---- | ||
'use strict' | ||
module.exports = (tag, { data }) => { | ||
const { contentCatalog, site } = data.root | ||
const pages = contentCatalog.getPages(({ asciidoc, out }) => { | ||
if (!out || !asciidoc) return | ||
const pageTags = asciidoc.attributes['page-tags'] | ||
return pageTags && pageTags.split(', ').includes(tag) | ||
}) | ||
const { buildPageUiModel } = require.main.require('@antora/page-composer/build-ui-model') | ||
return pages.map((page) => buildPageUiModel(site, page, contentCatalog)) | ||
} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
In this case, the usage of the item object is simpler and more familiar: | ||
|
||
[,hbs] | ||
---- | ||
{{#each (pages-with-tag 'tutorial')}} | ||
<a href="{{{relativize ./url}}}">{{{./doctitle}}}</a> | ||
{{/each}} | ||
---- | ||
|
||
Using this helper as a foundation, you can implement a variety of customizations and custom collections. | ||
|
||
CAUTION: Keep in mind that any helper you will use will be called for each page that uses the template. | ||
This can impact performance. | ||
If it's called on every page in your site, be sure that the operation is efficient to avoid slowing down site generation. | ||
|
||
As an alternative to using a helper, you may want to consider whether writing an Antora extension is a better option. |
Oops, something went wrong.
