Edit Link
Site-Level Config
Edit Link lets you display a link to edit the page on Git management services such as GitHub, or GitLab. To enable it, add themeConfig.editLink
options to your config.
js
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: 'https://github.com/vuejs/vitepress/edit/main/docs/:path'
}
}
}
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: 'https://github.com/vuejs/vitepress/edit/main/docs/:path'
}
}
}
The pattern
option defines the URL structure for the link, and :path
is going to be replaced with the page path.
You can also put a pure function that accepts PageData
as the argument and returns the URL string.
js
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: ({ filePath }) => {
if (filePath.startsWith('packages/')) {
return `https://github.com/acme/monorepo/edit/main/${filePath}`
} else {
return `https://github.com/acme/monorepo/edit/main/docs/${filePath}`
}
}
}
}
}
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: ({ filePath }) => {
if (filePath.startsWith('packages/')) {
return `https://github.com/acme/monorepo/edit/main/${filePath}`
} else {
return `https://github.com/acme/monorepo/edit/main/docs/${filePath}`
}
}
}
}
}
It should not have side-effects nor access anything outside of its scope since it will be serialized and executed in the browser.
By default, this will add the link text "Edit this page" at the bottom of the doc page. You may customize this text by defining the text
option.
js
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: 'https://github.com/vuejs/vitepress/edit/main/docs/:path',
text: 'Edit this page on GitHub'
}
}
}
export default {
themeConfig: {
editLink: {
pattern: 'https://github.com/vuejs/vitepress/edit/main/docs/:path',
text: 'Edit this page on GitHub'
}
}
}
Frontmatter Config
This can be disabled per-page using the editLink
option on frontmatter:
yaml
---
editLink: false
