                            },
                            { "separator": true },
                            {
                                "label": "v1.0.0",
                                "href": "https://github.com/user/repo/archive/v1.0.0.zip"
                            }

            }
        }
    },
    // other build configuration options
    // src, dest, app, jsdoc, markdown, debug, etc...
}

Then you can build your documentation with these customized template options.

Docma.create()
    .build('path/to/docma.json')
    .then(() => {
        console.log('Documentation is built successfully.');
    })
    .catch(err => {
        console.log(err);
    });

...or build via CLI:

docma -c path/to/docma.json
