vue3-sphinx-xml

vue3-sphinx-xml

Vue component for displaying documentation from XML that has been generaterd by Sphinx.

Project setup

npm install --save vue3-sphinx-xml

Module import

You can pass options to Katex when you install vue3-sphinx-xml, using the katex key in the options parameter.

import { installVue3SphinxXml } from 'vue3-sphinx-xml'
import 'vue3-sphinx-xml/dist/style.css'

createApp(App)
  .use(installVue3SphinxXml, {
    katex: {
      /* Katex options go here. */
    },
  })
  .mount('#app')

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

vue3-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 { installVue3SphinxXml } from 'vue3-sphinx-xml'
import 'vue3-sphinx-xml/dist/style.css'

import VueHighlightJS from 'vue-highlightjs'

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

createApp(App)
  .use(store)
  .use(installVue3SphinxXml)
  .use(VueHighlightJS)
  .mount('#app')

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 vue3-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 setup>
import { SphinxPage } from 'vue3-sphinx-xml'
</script>

In this example the XML source files would be in the directory public/sphinx-xml-files.

SphinxPage API

• props

Module routing

vue3-sphinx-xml requires that you use vue-router. To add a vue3-sphinx-xml route under documentation add the following to routes object for vue-router:

  {
    path: '/documentation/:pageName*',
    name: 'Documentation',
    component: () => import('../views/Documentation.vue')
  }

Again assuming standard layout.

Module math

To render any math in the page vue3-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, {
  katex: {
    /* Katex options. */
  },
})
Vue.use(VueKatex)

Examples

For a complete example of a Vue application using vue3-sphinx-xml look at https://github.com/hsorby/example-vue3-sphinx-xml. The main branch has a basic example of how vue3-sphinx-xml may be used and the multi_version branch has an example of how vue3-sphinx-xml may be used for different versions of Sphinx XML output.
