vue-sphinx-xml

Vue component for displaying Sphinx documentation XML content.

Project setup

npm install --save vue-sphinx-xml

Module import

vue-sphinx-xml makes use of the vuex store to track data. You must use a vuex store for the component to work. ⚠️ You need to install the module with the application like so:

import SphinxXml from 'vue-sphinx-xml'

Vue.use(SphinxXml, { store })

Add the above to your main.js application file before the line creating a new Vue({ ... }) instance (this assumes that a standard layout is followed when creating your application).

vue-sphinx-xml can make use of vue-highlightjs as an optional package. vue-highlightjs adds code highlighting to any code blocks in the documentation. To make use of vue-highlightjs install the package:

npm install --save vue-highlightjs

and edit your main.js application file to have the following:

import SphinxXml from 'vue-sphinx-xml'
import VueHighlightJS from 'vue-highlightjs'

import 'highlight.js/styles/xcode.css'

Vue.use(SphinxXml, { store })
Vue.use(VueHighlightJS)

The line import 'highlight.js/styles/xcode.css' is one of many styles available from highlightjs that may be imported. See highlightjs styles for a comprehensive list of available styles.

Module component

To use the vue-sphinx-xml component import it in a view and set the baseURL for the source XML. Example view Documentation.vue:

<template>
  <div class="documentation">
    <sphinx-page baseURL="/sphinx-xml-files" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import { SphinxPage } from 'vue-sphinx-xml'

export default {
  name: 'Documentation',
  components: {
    SphinxPage,
  },
}
</script>

SphinxPage API

• props

prop	description	default	type
baseURL	the base URL of the XML files	'/'	String
downloadBaseURL	the base URL for downloads	baseURL + '/_downloads'	String
imagesBaseURL	the base URL for images	baseURL + '/_images'	String
indexFileName	the name of the index file at the base URL	'index'	String
scrollDelay	delay before scrolling to hash location on page	300	Number

Module routing

vue-sphinx-xml requires that you use vue-router. To add a vue-sphinx-xml route under documentation add the following to routes object for vue-router:

  {
    path: '/documentation/:pageName*',
    name: 'Documentation',
    // route level code-splitting
    // this generates a separate chunk (documentation.[hash].js) for this route
    // which is lazy-loaded when the route is visited.
    component: () => import(/* webpackChunkName: "documentation" */ '../views/Documentation.vue')
  }

Again assuming standard layout.

Module math

To render any math in the page vue-sphinx-xml uses Katex. Katex is not automatically loaded because it is a large package. To render math with Katex you need to install the following packages:

npm install --save katex vue-katex

and edit your main.js application file to have the following:

import SphinxXml from 'vue-sphinx-xml'
import VueKatex from 'vue-katex'

import 'katex/dist/katex.min.css'

Vue.use(SphinxXml, { store })
Vue.use(VueKatex)

Examples

For a complete example of a Vue application using vue-sphinx-xml look at https://github.com/hsorby/example-vue-sphinx-xml. The main branch has a basic example of how vue-sphinx-xml may be used and the multi_version branch has an example of how vue-sphinx-xml may be used for different versions of Sphinx XML output.
