astro-layouts

Remark plugin to add folder-based to your MD and MDX files in Astro 🚀

Installation

Install the package using your favorite package manager:

npm install astro-layouts

Configuration

Configuration with MD

Add the plugin to markdown options in your astro.config.mjs file:

// astro.config.mjs
import astroLayouts from "astro-layouts";

const layoutOptions = {
  "pages/**/*.md": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
};

export default defineConfig({
  markdown: {
    remarkPlugins: [[astroLayouts, layoutOptions]],
  },
});

Configuration with MDX

Add the plugin to MDX options in your astro.config.mjs file:

// astro.config.mjs
import astroLayouts from "astro-layouts";
import mdx from "@astrojs/mdx";

const layoutOptions = {
  "pages/**/*.mdx": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
};

export default defineConfig({
  integrations: [
    mdx({
      remarkPlugins: [[astroLayouts, layoutOptions]],
    }),
  ],
});

Configuration with MDX and MD

Add the plugin to markdown options in your astro.config.mjs file:

Note By default, Astro extends the markdown options to MDX when you add mdx integration to your project. Read more about it in the Astro docs.

// astro.config.mjs
import astroLayouts from "astro-layouts";
import mdx from "@astrojs/mdx";

const layoutOptions = {
  "pages/**/*": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
};

export default defineConfig({
  integrations: [mdx()],
  markdown: {
    remarkPlugins: [[astroLayouts, layoutOptions]],
  },
});

API

The options object can have any properties following the pattern:

• The key is the glob pattern to match the files
• The value is the path to the layout file

{
  // Match all files in the "src/pages/blog" folder
  "pages/blog/**/*": "/src/layouts/BlogLayout.astro",
  // Match all files in the "src/content" folder
  "content/**/*": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
  // Match only top-level files in the "src/pages" folder
  "pages/*": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
}

Note If you have aliases defined in your tsconfig.json file, you can use them to define a layout path.

{
  // This layout path is using an alias
  "pages/**/*": "@layouts/Layout.astro",
}

Usage

Default layout

You can define a default layout for all your files in src/pages folder.

{
  "pages/**/*": "/src/layouts/Layout.astro",
}

Folder based layout

You can define a layout for a folder or subfolder

{
  // Match all files in the "src/pages/blog" folder
  "pages/blog/**/*": "/src/layouts/BlogLayout.astro",
  // Match all top-level files in the "src/pages/projects" folder
  "pages/projects/*": "/src/layouts/ProjectLayout.astro",
}
