Additional configuration
In addition to the theme options, there are a handful of items you must modify via the siteMetadata
object in your site's gatsby-config.js
The Social tags, if left as an empty string will not appear in the footer
The External Links accept a label as the text for the a tag and the link is the value for the href attribute
module.exports = {
plugins: [
{
resolve: 'gatsby-theme-spudnik',
options: {}
}
],
siteMetadata: {
title: `Demo`,
author: `Reuben Ellis`,
description: `An Authentication Site Built with Gatsby, GraphQL, Material-UI and Auth0.`,
greeting: `This is an optional greeting for a home page with a Hero image`,
copyright: `Copyright © 2019 [Business] - No part of this website may be reproduced without specific written permission... Just Kidding Copy Away!!!`,
loginDesc: 'Login / Signup',
isAuthApp: false,
social: {
facebook: 'https://www.facebook.com/altcampus',
twitter: 'https://www.twitter.com/altcampus',
github: 'https://www.github.com/[githubUserName]',
email: 'test@example.com'
},
externalLinks: [{ label: '', link: '' }]
}
};
Only if isAuthApp is set to true in the gatsby-config file
- Create An
env.development
file to hold your environment variables - In addition replace the values in the site's
env.development
file with the correct values from your Auth0 account.
If you do not have an Auth0 account create one for free Auth0
GATSBY_AUTH0_DOMAIN = domain.auth0.com;
GATSBY_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID = secret_client_id;
GATSBY_AUTH0_CALLBACK_URL = `http://localhost:8000/callback`;
GATSBY_AUTH0_REDIRECT_URL = `http://localhost:8000`;
-
/content
: A content folder holding assets that the theme expects to exist. This will vary from theme to theme -- this starter expects a logo directory with either a png, jpg or svg image, a post directory for content and mdx files and a data directory for JSON files. NOTE
If the logo directory is empty the theme will use the title attribute in the gatsby-config.js
file.
-
/src
: You will probably want to customize your site to personalize it. The files under /src/gatsby-theme-spudnik
shadow, or override, the files of the same name in the gatsby-theme-spudnik
package. To learn more about this, check out the guide to getting started with using the blog theme starter.
Example
: src/gatsby-theme-spudnik/components/layout.css
and then edit the following hex values for color scheme changes:
.appHeader {
background: linear-gradient(
to bottom,
#325da7 0%,
#325da7 19%,
#325da7 30%,
#325da7 100%
);
box-shadow: inset 0 1px 6px 0 #325da7;
flex-grow: 1;
margin: auto 0;
}
.fontAwesomeFooterIcon {
color: #325da7;
cursor: pointer;
text-decoration: none;
text-shadow: 2px 2px #282828;
}
.socialLink {
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 25px;
margin: 1rem 1rem;
text-decoration: none;
}
.externalLink {
color: #325da7;
font-size: 18px;
margin: 1rem 1rem;
text-decoration: none;
text-shadow: 2px 2px #dddddd;
}
