Global Components

Introduction

You can customize components and use them directly in any other files without having to use the import statements every time.

Creating a Component

Create a file that implements that component in the src/components folder. The file name should be <componentname>.js.

备注

Rather than placing it in src/components, you can also use other directories (just need to use the exact directory during the import).

For example, to customize a <Highlight> component that renders the text background color, create a Highlight.js file in the src/components directory with the following content:

import React from 'react';

export default function Highlight({children, color}) {
  return (
    <span
      style={{
        backgroundColor: color,
        borderRadius: '2px',
        color: '#fff',
        padding: '0.2rem',
      }}>
      {children}
    </span>
  );
}

This snippet defines a function called Highlight to render text colors.

Registering the Component

• Manual
• CLI

After creating the file above, create a file src/theme/MDXComponents.js and copy the following content to the file:

import React from 'react';
// Import the original mapper
import MDXComponents from '@theme-original/MDXComponents';
import Highlight from '@site/src/components/Highlight';

export default {
  // Re-use the default mapping
  ...MDXComponents,
  // Map the "<Highlight>" tag to our Highlight component
  // `Highlight` will receive all props that were passed to `<Highlight>` in MDX
  Highlight,
};

If you have implemented more components, add more import statements and add the component name after the line Highlight.

For example, to use the built-in <Tabs></Tabs> and <TabItems></TabItems> components globally without having to import them in every MDX file, register them to the MDXComponents file as follows:

import React from 'react';
// Import the original mapper
import MDXComponents from '@theme-original/MDXComponents';
import Highlight from '@site/src/components/Highlight';
import TabItem from '@theme-original/TabItem';
import Tabs from '@theme-original/Tabs';

export default {
  // Re-use the default mapping
  ...MDXComponents,
  // Map the "<Highlight>" tag to our Highlight component
  // `Highlight` will receive all props that were passed to `<Highlight>` in MDX
  Highlight,
  TabItem,
  Tabs
};

警告

Because <Tabs></Tabs> and <TabItems></TabItems> are built-in components, you don't need to create the Tabs.js and TabItems.js files in the src/components directory.

Instead, you only need to register them to MDXComponents.
