This plugin enhances your Docsify documentation by automatically generating numbered headers for your markdown files. It allows you to configure the header levels, numbering format, and inclusion in the sidebar. By utilising this plugin, you can easily manage and navigate through your documentation headers, ensuring consistency and improved readability.
!> Note: There are breaking changes in the configuration from v4.x
to v5.x
. Please take the time to read all the documentation before upgrading
Assuming you have a working docsify framework set up, it is easy to use the plugin.
-
Add one of the following script tags to your
index.html
via either CDN or downloading it and using it locally:<!-- unpkg.com --> <script src="https://unpkg.com/@markbattistella/docsify-autoheaders@latest"></script> <!-- jsDelivr --> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@markbattistella/docsify-autoheaders@latest"></script> <!-- locally --> <script src="docsify-autoheaders.min.js"></script>
-
In docsify setup, configure the plugin:
<script> window.$docsify = { autoHeaders: { // Separator for header numbering (e.g., '.', '-', ')') separator: '.', // Boolean indicating if headers should be added to the sidebar sidebar: false, // Number of header levels to include (1 to 6) or an object with start and finish properties levels: 6, // levels: { start: 1, finish: 6 } // Boolean to enable or disable debug messages debug: false } }; </script>
There are several options available for the docsify-auto-headers plugin:
Setting | Type | Options |
---|---|---|
separator |
String | e.g., . , - , ) |
sidebar |
Boolean | true or false |
levels |
Number | 1 to 6 |
Object | { start: Number, finish: Number } |
|
debug |
Boolean | true or false |
The plugin can be configured to apply scoped heading counts in either the sidebar or the main content, depending on your setup.
When you want to use the heading numbering on a markdown file you can add either of the following signifiers to the first line of the document:
@autoHeader:
<!-- autoHeader: -->
After the colon (:
) you can add in the number that will begin for heading level 1 (H1
).
If the sidebar
option is enabled, the headers will be included in the sidebar and processed before rendering the markdown.
If the sidebar
option is disabled, the headers will be processed and applied directly to the HTML after rendering.
