# Reference
|
|
|
|
Material for MkDocs is packed with many great features that make technical
|
|
writing a pleasure. This section of the documentation explains how to set up
|
|
a page, and showcases all available specimen that can be used directly from
|
|
within Markdown files.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
This configuration allows to set a title and description for a page, change the
|
|
template or define an icon to be rendered in the navigation. Add the following
|
|
lines to `mkdocs.yml`:
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
markdown_extensions:
|
|
- meta
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See additional configuration options:
|
|
|
|
- [Metadata]
|
|
|
|
[front matter]: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/
|
|
[Metadata]: ../setup/extensions/python-markdown.md#metadata
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Setting the page title
|
|
|
|
When [Metadata] is enabled, the page title can be overridden for a document with
|
|
some custom front matter. Add the following lines at the top of a Markdown file:
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
---
|
|
title: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet # (1)!
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# Document title
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. This will set the [`title`][title] inside the HTML document's [`head`][head]
|
|
for the generated page to this value. Note that the site title, which is set
|
|
via [`site_name`][site_name], is appended with a dash.
|
|
|
|
[title]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/title
|
|
[head]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/head
|
|
[site_name]: https://www.mkdocs.org/user-guide/configuration/#site_name
|
|
|
|
### Setting the page description
|
|
|
|
When [Metadata] is enabled, the page description can be overridden for a
|
|
document with custom front matter. Add the following lines at the top of a
|
|
Markdown file:
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
---
|
|
description: Nullam urna elit, malesuada eget finibus ut, ac tortor. # (1)!
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# Document title
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. This will set the `meta` tag containing the site description inside the
|
|
document `head` for the current page to the provided value.
|
|
|
|
### Setting the page icon
|
|
|
|
[:octicons-heart-fill-24:{ .mdx-heart } Insiders][Insiders]{ .mdx-insiders } ·
|
|
[:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.5.0][Insiders] ·
|
|
:octicons-beaker-24: Experimental
|
|
|
|
An icon can be assigned to each page, which is then rendered as part of the
|
|
navigation sidebar. Ensure [Metadata] is enabled and add the following lines
|
|
at the top of a Markdown file:
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
---
|
|
icon: material/emoticon-happy # (1)!
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# Document title
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Enter a few keywords to find the perfect icon using our [icon search] and
|
|
click on the shortcode to copy it to your clipboard:
|
|
|
|
<div class="mdx-iconsearch" data-mdx-component="iconsearch">
|
|
<input class="md-input md-input--stretch mdx-iconsearch__input" placeholder="Search icon" data-mdx-component="iconsearch-query" value="emoticon happy" />
|
|
<div class="mdx-iconsearch-result" data-mdx-component="iconsearch-result" data-mdx-mode="file">
|
|
<div class="mdx-iconsearch-result__meta"></div>
|
|
<ol class="mdx-iconsearch-result__list"></ol>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
[Insiders]: ../insiders/index.md
|
|
[icon search]: icons-emojis.md#search
|
|
|
|
### Setting the page template
|
|
|
|
If you're using [theme extension] and created a new page template in the
|
|
`overrides` directory, you can enable it for a specific page. Add the following
|
|
lines at the top of a Markdown file:
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
---
|
|
template: custom.html
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# Document title
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
[theme extension]: ../customization.md#extending-the-theme
|
|
|
|
## Customization
|
|
|
|
### Using metadata in templates
|
|
|
|
#### on all pages
|
|
|
|
In order to add custom `meta` tags to your document, you can [extend the theme
|
|
][theme extension] and [override the `extrahead` block][overriding blocks],
|
|
e.g. to add indexing policies for search engines via the `robots` property:
|
|
|
|
``` html
|
|
{% extends "base.html" %}
|
|
|
|
{% block extrahead %}
|
|
<meta property="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />
|
|
{% endblock %}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
[overriding blocks]: ../customization.md#overriding-blocks
|
|
|
|
#### on a single page
|
|
|
|
If you want to set a `meta` tag on a single page, or want to set different
|
|
values for different pages, you can use the `page.meta` object inside your
|
|
template override, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
``` html
|
|
{% extends "base.html" %}
|
|
|
|
{% block extrahead %}
|
|
{% if page and page.meta and page.meta.robots %}
|
|
<meta property="robots" content="{{ page.meta.robots }}" />
|
|
{% else %}
|
|
<meta property="robots" content="index, follow" />
|
|
{% endif %}
|
|
{% endblock %}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now use `robots` exactly like [`title`][title] and
|
|
[`description`][description] to set values. Note that in this case, the
|
|
template defines an `else` branch, which would set a default if none was given.
