npm:

npm install @newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic @emotion/core @emotion/styled @mdx-js/mdx @mdx-js/react @splitsoftware/splitio-react gatsby-plugin-mdx

yarn:

yarn add @newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic @emotion/core @emotion/styled @mdx-js/mdx @mdx-js/react @splitsoftware/splitio-react gatsby-plugin-mdx

Configuration

You can configure gatsby-theme-newrelic using the following configuration options:

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  siteMetadata: {
    siteUrl: 'https://developer.newrelic.com',
    repository: 'https://github.com/newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
    branch: 'main',
    utmSource: 'developer-site',
  },
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
      options: {
        sitemap: true,
        layout: {
          contentPadding: '2rem',
          maxWidth: '1600px',
        },
        newrelic: {
          configs: {
            staging: {
              instrumentationType: 'proAndSPA',
              accountId: '1234',
              trustKey: '1',
              agentID: '1234',
              licenseKey: 'your-license-key',
              applicationID: '1234',
            },
            production: {
              instrumentationType: 'proAndSPA',
              accountId: '1234',
              trustKey: '1',
              agentID: '1234',
              licenseKey: 'your-license-key',
              applicationID: '12345',
            },
          },
        },
        i18n: {
          translationsPath: `${__dirname}/src/i18n/translations`,
          additionalLocales: ['jp'],
        }
        robots: {
          policy: [{ userAgent: '*', allow: '/' }],
        },
        splitio: {
          core: {
            authorizationKey: 'my-auth-key',
          },
        },
        tessen: {
          product: 'DEMO',
          subproduct: 'DEMO',
        },
        relatedResources: {
          labels: {
            'https://my.website': 'my-website'
          },
        }
      },
    },
  ],
};

Site metadata

gatsby-theme-newrelic makes use of several siteMetadata options. While these are optional, they are highly recommended.

  • siteUrl: Production URL for the site (e.g. https://developer.newrelic.com)
  • repository: The URL for the public GitHub repository hosting the source code for the site.
  • branch: The mainline branch for use when constructing “Edit this page” links (defaults to main). to various mediums within New Relic.
  • contributingUrl: The URL where a user can find contributing guidelines for the site. If this is not specified, it defaults to the CONTRIBUTING.md file in the repo and branch specified in the siteMetadata. If the repository is not specified, this will return null. Set this value to null to disable the default behavior.

Options

sitemap

Toggles the automatic creation of a sitemap. Set this value to false to disable sitemaps.

Default: true

newrelic

Configuration for gatsby-plugin-newrelic. For more details on the available configuration options, visit the documentation.

Default: null

robots

Configuration for gatsby-plugin-robots-txt. These options will be shallow merged with the default value. For more details on the available configuration options, visit the documentation.

Default: { policy: [{ userAgent: '*', allow: '/' }] }

relatedResources

Optional configuration for related resources used in the right rail. Currently only Mdx nodes are supported.

The related resources component is controlled by specific front matter slugs that are defined on a page by setting the front matter for resources. If no resources are available in the page front matter, the component will backfill use the related resource items using Swiftype. See the swiftype options below for more information on customizing the search behavior.

In short, the order of priority for populating content is driven by:

  1. Resources defined via the resources front matter item.
  2. Resources defined from executing a Swiftype search for the page.

Options:

  • labels (object): Map of URLs to their label. This is used to match results displayed in the right rail with the label in the tag displayed underneath the link. Use this to add additional labels not covered by the default set of labels.

  • swiftype (object | false): Configuration used for fetching results from Swiftype for an Mdx node. Set this to false (the default) to disable fetching related resources through Swiftype. If this is disabled, related resources can only be sourced via front matter. If enabled, this takes the following configuration:

    • resultsPath (string) required: Path to the file where Swiftype results will be stored. If the refetch option is set to false (the default), this file will be used to read related resource values for each Mdx node. This file is only written to when refetch is set to true.

    • refetch (boolean): Determines whether to refetch results from Swiftype for every Mdx node during a build. It’s a good idea to only set this on a special build (e.g. a build that happens on a cron job) so that Swiftype is not searched on development or every build on the site.

      • Default: false
    • engineKey (string) required: Swiftype’s engine key used to fetch results from a Swiftype search engine.

    • getSlug (function): Function to get the slug for an Mdx node. Useful if the slug is set from something other than the filesystem. By default, this will use the createFilePath helper to generate the slug for the Mdx node. This function should accept an object as its only argument with a key of node (i.e. getSlug: ({ node }) => { /* do something */ })

    • filter (function): Function to determine whether Swfitype should be queried for the Mdx node. Useful if you only need to get related resources for a subset of nodes on the site. By default, all Mdx nodes are fetched. This function should accept an object as its only argument with a key of node and a key of slug (i.e. filter: ({ node, slug }) => { /* do something */ }).

    • getParams (function): Function that allows you to specify additional params passed to Swiftype when running a search query. Useful if you want to provide additional filters or field boosts. This function should accept an object as its only argument with a key of node and a key of slug.

    • limit (integer): The limit of related resources that should be fetched from Swiftype.

      • Default: 5

tessen

Optional configuration for Tessen tracking.

  • tessenVersion (string): Version of tessen to select. Available versions are: ['1.3.0', '1.14.0']. Defaults to '1.3.0' if not specified.
  • product (string) required: The 4-character product set as nr_product
  • subproduct (string) required: The 4-character subproduct set as nr_subproduct
  • segmentWriteKey (string) required: The write key used for Segment integration.
  • trackPageViews (boolean): Determines whether to track page views via Tessen’s tessen.page action. If this is enabled, you MUST configure the pageView settings to ensure the name and category are propertly instrumented.
    • Default: false
  • pageView (object): Configuration for automatic page view tracking. If trackPageViews is enabled, this MUST be configured to properly instrument page views. If this is not configured, calls to page views will result in a no-op. This takes the following configuration:
    • name (string) required: The name of the page view action. This is passed to tessen.page to track page views.
    • category (string) required: The category of the page view action. This is passed tot tessen.page to track page views.
    • getProperties (function): Function that allows you to specify additional properties that should be instrumented as part of the page view. Takes an object as its only argument with both the location and env as properties on that object. The env is determined by the result of the resolveEnv configuration.
    • ...rest: All other properties will be added as properties to tessen.page.
  • env (object): Environment-specific configuration. This takes the same properties as listed above. These values override the values set above. Useful if you have environment overrides you’d like to apply. The environment is determined based on the valued returned from resolveEnv.

Example

const config = {
  tessen: {
    tessenVersion: '1.3.0',
    product: 'DEMO',
    subproduct: 'DEMO',
    trackPageViews: true,
    pageView: {
      name: 'pageView',
      category: 'DemoPageView',
      getProperties: ({ location, env }) => ({
        env: env === 'production' ? 'prod' : env,
      }),
    },
    env: {
      development: {
        trackPageViews: false,
      },
    },
  },
};

resolveEnv

Optional function to determine the environment. Useful to provide a fine-tuned environment name for environment-specific configuration like tessen.

Default:

const defaultResolveEnv = () =>
  process.env.GATSBY_NEWRELIC_ENV ||
  process.env.GATSBY_ACTIVE_ENV ||
  process.env.NODE_ENV ||
  'development';

i18n

Optional configuration for internationalization (i18n).

  • additionalLocales: Additional supported for languages other than English (the default language). Currently supports jp.
  • translationsPath: The directory path where the translations will be stored.
  • i18nextOptions: Additional options to pass into i18next that will override the defaults.

These values are used to generate locale-specific pages and to populate a dropdown in the <GlobalHeader /> component.

Example

{
  i18n: {
    additionalLocales: ['jp'];
  }
}

layout

Configuration for the layout.

Options:

  • maxWidth (string): Sets the max width of the layout. Accepts any CSS sizing value (e.g. 1280px).
  • contentPadding (string): Sets the padding value for the content. Accepts any CSS sizing value (e.g. 2rem)

Default: { maxWidth: null, contentPadding: null }

Layout configuration is available in the GraphQL schema which can be queried within the Site type. This is useful when you have other layout elements that need to use the layout configuration.

query {
  site {
    layout {
      maxWidth
      contentPadding
    }
  }
}

These values are also available as global CSS variables. You can access them as:

  • maxWidth: var(--site-max-width)
  • contentPadding: var(--site-content-padding)

prism

Configuration for the prismjs library. This library powers the syntax highlighting used in the CodeBlock component.

Options:

  • languages ([string]): Configure additional languages used for syntax highlighting. These languages will be appended to the list of default supported languages in the theme. For a full list of supported languages, visit the prism documentation.

Default supported languages:

  • css
  • graphql
  • hcl
  • javascript
  • json
  • jsx
  • ruby
  • shell
  • sql
  • sass
  • scss

Example: Add swift as a supported language

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
      options: {
        prism: {
          languages: ['swift'],
        },
      },
    },
  ],
};

splitio

Configuration for using split.io with the Gatsby site. For more information on all the available configuration options, visit the split.io SDK docs.

Default:

const DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
  core: {
    trafficType: 'user',
  },
};

NOTE: The core.key configuration option is generated by the theme and

signup

Required configuration for using the <SignUpModal /> in the <GlobalHeader /> component. If the GlobalHeader is not being used, this configuration is not required.

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
      options: {
        signup: {
          environment: process.env.ENVIRONMENT || 'staging',
          signupUrl: '<signup receiver url>',
          reCaptchaToken: '<token value>',
        },
      },
    },
  ],
};
Environment-specific configuration

Use the env option to define environment-specific configuration. The environment configuration will be merged with the top-level configuration.

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
      options: {
        splitio: {
          core: {
            trafficType: 'user',
          },
          env: {
            development: {
              core: {
                authorizationKey: 'my-development-key',
              },
            },
            production: {
              core: {
                authorizationKey: 'my-prod-key',
              },
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  ],
};

The env key will be taken from process.env.GATSBY_ACTIVE_ENV first (see Gatsby environment variables for more information on this variable), falling back to process.env.NODE_ENV. When this is not available, then it defaults to development.

You can resolve the env by using the resolveEnv function:

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic',
      options: {
        splitio: {
          // ...
          resolveEnv: () => process.env.BUILD_ENV,
        },
      },
    },
  ],
};

newRelicRequestingServicesHeader

Configure the name reported to NerdGraph in the NewRelic-Requesting-Services header. The value should be formatted like a slug, dash-separated and all lowercase, like 'io-website'. This header is only used in the call to check the current user’s logged in status. Currently, Tessen and the useLoggedIn hook are the only places this is used. If this isn’t configured, Tessen won’t include the loggedIn field on any events, and useLoggedIn().loggedIn will always be null.

Layouts

This theme supports Layout components in a similar way to Gatsby V1 through the gatsby-plugin-layout. This plugin allows you to persist the layout between page changes, as well as state. To start using this layout functionality create a component at src/layouts/index.jsx, then the plugin will automatically inject the component into your pages.

Components

Used to add a marketing banner to a page.

import { Banner } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic';

Props

  Say hello
</Button>

Render a link as a button

import { Link } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic';

// ...

<Button as={Link} to="/page-2" variant={Button.VARIANT.PRIMARY}>
  Page 2
</Button>;

Callout

Callouts direct your attention to information of special importance or to information that doesn’t fit smoothly into the main text.

  • Caution: Screams at you that this could cause a crash or cost you data loss beyond the task at hand.
  • Important: Urges awareness that this could impair the task at hand or cost you time if you ignore the text.
  • Tip: Whispers to you that this is nice to know, like a shortcut, best practice, or reminder.
import { Callout } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic'`

Props

Prop Type Required Default Description
className string no Adds a className to the callout. Useful if you need to position the callout within its parent element.
variant enum yes Configures the variant of the callout. Must be one of Callout.VARIANT.CAUTION, Callout.VARIANT.IMPORTANT, Callout.VARIANT.TIP, Callout.VARIANT.COURSE
title enum no Set the title text. Defaults to variant name. You may hide the title by passing null as the value.

</Callout>

CodeBlock

Used when rendering code blocks on a page.

import { CodeBlock } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic';

Props

Prop Type Required Default Description
autoFormat boolean no true* Determines whether to auto format the code using prettier. true will force code formatting to occur. false will force disable code formatting. If left empty, code formatting will only run on a subset of supported languages (see below)
children string yes The code to be rendered in the code block
className string no Adds a className to the outer container of the code block. Useful if you need to position the code block within its parent element.
components object no Swap out the elements used when rendering various elements of the code block. See the “Configurable components” guide below to learn more about this prop.
copyable boolean no true Determines whether to render a copy button for the content inside the code block.
fileName string no The file name associated with the code rendered by the code block. Useful if the code block is used as part of tutorial.
formatOptions object no Configuration options given to the formatCode utility function to auto-format the code block.
highlightedLines string no Specifies which lines in the code block should be highlighted. See the examples below on for information on how to format this string.
language string no Configures the language used for syntax highlighting. Must match one of the languages or its aliases from prismjs. To learn more about configuring supported languages, visit the prism configuration section.
lineNumbers boolean no false Determines whether to show line numbers inside the code block.
live boolean no false Determines whether the code block is live-editable or not. Useful when used in conjunction with the preview option, though not required.
preview boolean no false Determines whether a live preview is displayed using the value in the code block. Useful in conjunction with the live option to allow the user to edit the code snippet.
scope object no Configures the variables available as globals for the live preview. By default, only React is injected. To find out more about how the scope prop works, visit the react-live documentation.

Auto code formatting

Out of the box, the CodeBlock component will use prettier to format code for a subset of languages. These include:

  • jsx/javascript
  • html
  • graphql
  • json
  • css/sass/scss

To force formatting for another language, set the autoFormat prop value to true. To force disable code formatting, set the autoFormat prop value to false.

NOTE: If you choose to force enable code formatting for a language not listed above, you may need to use the formatOptions prop to set the proper plugins.

Configurable components

The CodeBlock is a component made up of several underlying components. There are cases where the default components may not be suitable for the needs of the site. The components prop allows you to specify your own custom components in place of the defaults to tailor component rendering for that component.

Each custom component is given all the props that would otherwise be passed to the default component. It is highly recommended to use the props given to the custom component.

The following components can be customized:

Preview

By default, the built-in Preview component uses the LivePreview component from react-live. Overriding this component may be useful if you need to, for example, render the preview inside of a shadow DOM root element which allows style isolation without polluting the global CSS namespace.

It is highly recommended that you render the LivePreview component within your custom component. It will be very difficult to see the live preview otherwise.

Prop Type Description
className string Includes the default styles for the preview pane. Forward this prop to the root of your custom component to maintain a consistent style.

Examples

const codeExample = `
import React from 'react'

const Button = (props) => (
  <button className='button' {...props} />
)
`;

const Documentation = () => (
  <CodeBlock language="jsx" fileName="src/components/Button.js">
    {codeExample}
  </CodeBlock>
);

Line highlighting

const codeExample = `
import React from 'react'
import PropTypes from 'prop-types'

const Button = (props) => (
  <button className='button' {...props}>
    {props.children}
  </button>
)

Button.propTypes = {
  children: PropTypes.element
}

export default Button
`;

const Documentation = () => (
  /*
   * Highlight multiple lines by comma-separating the line numbers.
   * Include a range of lines by using a `-` between the line numbers.
   */
  <CodeBlock language="jsx" highlightedLines="1,6,10-12">
    {codeExample}
  </CodeBlock>
);

Custom Preview component

import { LivePreview } from 'react-live';
import root from 'react-shadow';

const styles = `
.button {
  display: inline-flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  padding: 0.5rem 1rem;
  font-size: 0.875rem;
  background: none;
  cursor: pointer;
}
`;

// This component will be used in place of the default `Preview` component in
// the `CodeBlock`. Here we are using the shadow DOM to provide style isolation
// for the `button` class defined by the CSS in the `styles` variable above.
const CustomPreview = ({ className }) => (
  <root.div>
    <style type="text/css">{styles}</style>
    <LivePreview className={className} />
  </root.div>
);

// The button implementation we will be using when rendering the live preview,
// provided via the `scope` prop.
const Button = ({ children, ...props }) => (
  <button className="button">{children}</button>
);

const codeSample = `
<Button>Click me</Button>
`;

const Documentation = () => (
  <CodeBlock
    preview={true}
    components={{ Preview: CustomPreview }}
    scope={{ Button }}
  >
    {codeSample}
  </CodeBlock>
);

Shadowing icons

Because this theme only provides a subset of the feather icon set, you may need to add additional icons for use in your website. You can use component shadowing to do so. When shadowing the icon set, YOU MUST include the default set of icons in order for the built-in components to work properly.

When shadowing an icon set, defined the icons using the unprefixed name. The gatsby theme will automatically prefix the icons for you depending on the icon set. For example, to add the chevron-right icon, define its name as chevron-right, not fe-chevron-right. This icon will be available to the Icon component as fe-chevron-right.

The following icons sets can be shadowed:

  • Feather
    • File path: src/@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic/icons/feather.js
    • Prefix: fe
  • New Relic
    • File path: src/@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic/icons/newrelic.js
    • Prefix: nr
// src/@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic/icons/feather.js
import React from 'react';
import defaultIcons from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic/src/icons/feather';
import { FeatherSVG } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic';

export default {
  ...defaultIcons,
  'chevron-right': (props) => (
    <FeatherSVG {...props}>
      <polyline points="9 18 15 12 9 6" />
    </FeatherSVG>
  ),
};

// To use this icon, use the prefixed name:
<Icon name="fe-chevron-right" />;

Example

<Icon name="fe-copy" size="1rem" />

Provides a “smart” link to link to other URLs. This provides a unified component between a Gatsby Link and an external link. This component will pick between a regular anchor tag and a Gatsby link depending on whether the URL is a relative or external url.

This component also makes use of the SignUpLink component when users are being directed to sign up for New Relic. The SignUpLink is rendered when the to prop passed to the Link components starts with https://newrelic.com/signup (this can be updated in the Link component). SignUpLink will then determine the users locale and format a corresponding href for that user. This, along with additional instrumentation, comprises the SignUpLink use case.

This component will automatically convert absolute URLs that link to pages within the same site to relative links. This ensures a smooth user experience for all linked pages on the site.

This component can be used as a replacement for the built-in Link component in Gatsby since it wraps it.

import { Link } from '@newrelic/gatsby-theme-newrelic'`

Props

Prop Type Required Default Description
to string yes The URL to link to. If this is a relative path, it will use the Gatsby Link component. If it is an external URL, it will use a regular anchor tag.
displayExternalIcon bool no false If the to is external to the current site, and you want the element to include an icon showing this leads to an external site, set this to true
shouldAutoLocalize bool no true Optionally specify if an internal link’s URL path should be auto localized when on a translated version of the site.

All additional props are forwarded to either the Link component or the anchor tag depending on whether it is a relative or absolute URL.

Examples

// Can be used as a relative link to other pages in the site
<Link to="/page-2">Page 2</Link>

// Link to other pages in the site without auto localizing the URL
<Link to="/page-2" shouldAutoLocalize={false}>Page 2 (not localized)</Link>

// Can also be used to link to external URLs
<Link to="https://gatsbyjs.com">GatsbyJS</Link>

// If the link is absolute, but the origin matches the `siteMetadata.siteUrl`,
// it will smartly convert this to a relative path.
<Link to="https://developer.newrelic.com/page-2">developer page 2</Link>

MarkdownContainer
