Documents #

Document blocks are the most important element of the Fabric configuration. document block represents a template and includes the data, content and publishing definitions that describe the document and the workflow around it.

document "<document-name>" {

  title = "<document title>"

  # ...
}

A block type document and a document name are an unique identifier for the document template within the codebase. The document blocks must defined be on a root level of the configuration file and can not be inside other blocks.

The document block is a structure that groups the data definitions, the sections, the content blocks, and the publishing instructions together.

Supported arguments #

• title: (optional) a title of the document. It’s a syntax sugar for a nested content block that renders a title. During rendering, the title precedes any other nested content blocks or section blocks defined at the root level of the template.

Supported nested blocks #

• meta: see Metadata
• data: see Data Blocks
• vars: see Variables
• content: see Content Blocks
• section: see Section Blocks
