What's responsible for generating the sidebars on pages such as Hexagon and Ktor? I'm trying to apply Dokkatoo to my project but not getting any sidebar 😞

[Adam S]

are you opening the HTML file directly, or via a HTTP server (e.g. https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/php-built-in-web-server.html)?

Or is it a problem on mobile? https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/issues/2965

[Emil Kantis]

sorry, yeah I opened the file directly 🙂 After opening it through intelliJ it rendered correctly (and now published to ks3.io it also looks good)

[Emil Kantis]

OT.. do you know if there's currently any way to pass configuration to the all-modules-page plugin through dokkatoo? Basically I want to use an includes to add some docs on the root index.html

[Adam S]

do you want to pass the includes?

[Adam S]

something like this should work

dokkatoo {
  dokkatooPublications.named("main") {
    includes.from("my/custom/file.txt")
  }

  dokkatooPublications.configureEach {
    includes.from("my/custom/file.txt")
  }
}

Tyvm, I’ll try that :)

[Adam S]

no problem, let me know how it goes :)

[Emil Kantis]

worked 💯 planning to add the usual getting started info on the root page 🙂

[Adam S]

nice!
