Reusable snippets - Opencode

import SnippetIntro from "/snippets/snippet-intro.mdx"

Creating a custom snippet

Pre-condition: You must create your snippet file in the snippets directory.

<Note> Any page in the `snippets` directory will be treated as a snippet and will not be rendered into a standalone page. If you want to create a standalone page from the snippet, import the snippet into another file and call it as a component. </Note>

Default export

Add content to your snippet file that you want to re-use across multiple locations. Optionally, you can add variables that can be filled in via props when you import the snippet.

mdx

Hello world! This is my content I want to reuse across pages. My keyword of the
day is {word}.

<Warning> The content that you want to reuse must be inside the `snippets` directory in order for the import to work. </Warning>

Import the snippet into your destination file.

mdx

---
title: My title
description: My Description
---

import MySnippet from "/snippets/path/to/my-snippet.mdx"

## Header

Lorem impsum dolor sit amet.

<MySnippet word="bananas" />

Reusable variables

Export a variable from your snippet file:

mdx

export const myName = "my name"

export const myObject = { fruit: "strawberries" }

;

Import the snippet from your destination file and use the variable:

mdx

---
title: My title
description: My Description
---

import { myName, myObject } from "/snippets/path/to/custom-variables.mdx"

Hello, my name is {myName} and I like {myObject.fruit}.

Reusable components

Inside your snippet file, create a component that takes in props by exporting your component in the form of an arrow function.

mdx

export const MyComponent = ({ title }) => (
  <div>
    <h1>{title}</h1>
    <p>... snippet content ...</p>
  </div>
)

;

<Warning> MDX does not compile inside the body of an arrow function. Stick to HTML syntax when you can or use a default export if you need to use MDX. </Warning>

Import the snippet into your destination file and pass in the props

mdx

---
title: My title
description: My Description
---

import { MyComponent } from "/snippets/custom-component.mdx"

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.

<MyComponent title={"Custom title"} />
