## Install

```sh
$ npm install -D vuepress-plugin-feed

# or

$ yarn add -D vuepress-plugin-feed
```

## Usage

Add `vuepress-plugin-feed` in your site or theme config file.

> See [official docs on using a plugin](https://vuepress.vuejs.org/plugin/using-a-plugin.html)

```js
// .vuepress/config.js
// or
// .vuepress/theme/index.js

// set your global feed options - override in page frontmatter `feed`
const feed_options = {
canonical_base: 'https://webmasterish.com',
};

module.exports = {
plugins: [
[ 'feed', feed_options ]
]
}
```

### Page `frontmatter`

Page `frontmatter.feed` is optional. It can be used to override the defaults.

Check the [`Page class`](lib/Page.js) for more details.

```md
---

title: Page Title

feed:
enable: true
title: Title used in feed
description: Description used in feed
image: /public/image.png
author:
-
name: Author
email: [email protected]
link: http://doamin.tld
contributor:
-
name: Contributor
email: [email protected]
link: http://doamin.tld

---

```

## How pages are added as feed items

A page is auto added as a feed item if one the following conditions is met:

- `frontmatter.feed.enable === true`
- `frontmatter.type === 'post'`
- it resides in whatever the `posts_directories` are set to (the defaults are `blog` and `_posts`)

if you need to exclude a particular page that meets one of the conditions above,
you can use `frontmatter.feed.enable === false`.

Details on how pages are filtered can be found in [`PLUGIN.is_feed_page()`](index.js).

The `PLUGIN.is_feed_page()` function is the default way of filtering the pages,
you can override it using `is_feed_page` option (see [Options section](#options) below).

## Options

> See Plugin Option API [official docs](https://vuepress.vuejs.org/plugin/option-api.html)

### Default options

You can override default options in 2 ways:

1. Global plugin options set in `.vuepress/config.js` or `.vuepress/theme/index.js`
as described in [Usage](#usage)
2. Individual page/post `frontmatter` as shown in [Page `frontmatter`](#page-frontmatter)

```js
const {
title,
description
} = context.getSiteData ? context.getSiteData() : context;
