Before you can set about making documentation, you need to know where everything goes. The simplest folder structure looks like this:
|
|
|
|
{{% fileTree %}}
|
|
* content
|
|
* \_index.md
|
|
* print-version.md
|
|
* patterns
|
|
* name-of-my-pattern.md
|
|
* name-of-my-other-pattern.md
|
|
{{% /fileTree %}}
|
|
|
|
* **/content** - This is where all of your content lives. You won't need to visit any other folders very frequently.
|
|
* **_index.md** — This is the content file for your home page.
|
|
* **print-version.md** — This is a placeholder for the single-page / print-friendly version of you library. Leave this file as it is.
|
|
* **/patterns** — This is the folder where individual content files are kept. **Infusion** refers to each individual documentation file/page as a "pattern".
|
|
|
|
## Subsections
|
|
|
|
You may have noticed that this site's navigation is divided partly into subsections, with labels like "Writing". **Infusion** (or, rather, Hugo) allows you to create such subsections by simply nesting folders under the `/patterns` folder. In the following example, I have a subsection about different types of "popup" pattern.
|
|
|
|
{{% fileTree %}}
|
|
* content
|
|
* \_index.md
|
|
* patterns
|
|
* name-of-my-pattern.md
|
|
* name-of-my-other-pattern.md
|
|
* popups
|
|
* \_index.md
|
|
* popup-menu.md
|
|
* tooltips.md
|
|
{{% /fileTree %}}
|
|
|
|
Subfolders like `/popups` must each have an `_index.md` file. This file doesn't need any content except the TOML metadata defining the title (name) of that subsection:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
+++
|
|
title = "Popup windows"
|
|
+++
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This title is what labels the subsection in the navigation, *not* the folder name (`/popups`, in this case). For each subfolder you create, you must also create one of these `_index.md` files. The `/patterns` folder itself does not need one, however.
|
|
|
|
{{% note %}}
|
|
**Infusion** does not currently support _sub_-subsections. You can only create child folders under `/patterns`.
|
|
{{% /note %}}
|
|
|
|
Now that you know where to put everything, it's time to talk about how to actually write individual patterns. Don't worry, it's pretty straightforward. Turn to {{% pattern "Markdown & metadata" %}}.
