gatsby-plugin-page-creator

Gatsby plugin that automatically creates pages from React components in specified directories. Gatsby includes this plugin automatically in all sites for creating pages from components in src/pages.

With this plugin, any file that lives in the src/pages folder (or subfolders) will be expected to export a React Component to generate a Page. The following files are automatically excluded:

• template-*
• __tests__/*
• *.test.jsx?
• *.spec.jsx?
• *.d.tsx?
• *.json
• *.yaml
• _*
• .*

Install

npm install --save gatsby-plugin-page-creator

How to use

// gatsby-config.js

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    // You can have multiple instances of this plugin
    // to create pages from React components in different directories.
    //
    // The following sets up the pattern of having multiple
    // "pages" directories in your project
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-page-creator`,
      options: {
        path: `${__dirname}/src/account/pages`,
      },
    },
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-page-creator`,
      options: {
        path: `${__dirname}/src/settings/pages`,
      },
    },
    // You can also provide "createPath" and "validatePath" functions
    // to override default behaviour, if needed
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-page-creator`,
      options: {
        path: `${__dirname}/src/articles`,
        createPath: (basePath, filePath) => {
          // Creates a custom URL based on filename
          return `/articles/${slugify(basename(filePath))}/`
        },
        validatePath: (relativePath, isValid) => {
          // Filter page creation based on criteria,
          // the second argument is the default validatePath function
          if (!isValid(relativePath)) return false
          if (basename(relativePath).startsWith("draft-")) return false
          return true
        },
      },
    },
  ],
