Scalar Docusaurus API Reference Plugin "Scalasaurus"

Installation

Usage

Simply add to the plugins section of your Docusaurus config. If you are using Typescript you can import the type options type as well.

import type { ScalarOptions } from '@scalar/docusaurus'

plugins: [
  [
    '@scalar/docusaurus',
    {
      label: 'Scalar',
      route: '/scalar',
      showNavLink: true, // optional, default is true
      configuration: {
        spec: {
          url: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@scalar/galaxy/dist/latest.yaml',
        },
      },
    } as ScalarOptions,
  ],
],

We wrote a detailed integration guide for Docusaurus.

Multiple API descriptions

Is it possible to show multiple API descriptions? Yes, it is! :)

import type { ScalarOptions } from '@scalar/docusaurus'

plugins: [
  // First API definition
  [
    '@scalar/docusaurus',
    {
      // the `id` is required if you have multiple instances of the @scalar/docusaurus plugin
      id: 'scalar/galaxy',
      label: 'Scalar',
      route: '/scalar',
      showNavLink: true, // optional, default is true
      configuration: {
        spec: {
          url: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@scalar/galaxy/dist/latest.json',
        },
      },
    } as ScalarOptions,
  ],
  // Second API definition
  [
    '@scalar/docusaurus',
    {
      // the `id` is required if you have multiple instances of the @scalar/docusaurus plugin
      id: 'petstore',
      label: 'Petstore',
      route: '/petstore',
      showNavLink: true, // optional, default is true
      configuration: {
        spec: {
          url: 'https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3/openapi.json',
        },
      },
