How to use it in Antora

You can customize the treeview by using the generator and integrate it into your build pipeline.

Generate your own theme with gulp

• Create your own gulp task that generates the assets
• Generate directly into your css and js folder

'use strict'

const treeViewerAssetsGenerator = require('highlightjs-treeview/generator')

module.exports = (src) => (done) => generateTreeViewAssets(src).then(done)

async function generateTreeViewAssets (src) {
  try {
    return treeViewerAssetsGenerator.generateTreeViewAssets({
      outputCSS: `${src}/css/vendor/treeview.css`,
      outputJS: `${src}/js/vendor/treeview.js`,
      outputImagesDir: `${src}/img/treeview/`,
      config: {
        configName: 'default',
      },
    })
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error in generateTreeViewAssets:', error)
  }
}

Register treeview language

Add this line to src/js/vendor/highlightjs.bundle.js

// add generated treeview language
hljs.registerLanguage('treeview', require('./treeview'))

// or use predefined
hljs.registerLanguage('treeview', require('highlightjs-treeview/dist/js/treeview-default'))
/* or */
hljs.registerLanguage('treeview', require('highlightjs-treeview/dist/js/treeview-minimal'))

Register treeview css

Add this line to src/css/site.css

/* use generated css */
@import "vendor/treeview.css";

/* or used predefined */
@import "highlightjs-treeview/dist/css/treeview-default.css";
/* or */
@import "highlightjs-treeview/dist/css/treeview-minimal.css";

Icon sources

Icons are extracted from the material-icons-theme. A great source for icons for folders and files.
