mkdocs-leanix-plugin 1.0.2

A MkDocs plugin to import LeanIX data

MkDocs LeanIX Plugin

This is a plugin for MkDocs to display data from LeanIX.

Setup

Install the plugin using pip:

pip install mkdocs-leanix-plugin

Activate the plugin in mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - leanix  

Note: If you have no plugins entry in your config file yet, you'll likely also want to add the search plugin. MkDocs enables it by default if there is no plugins entry set, but now you have to enable it explicitly.

More information about plugins in the MkDocs documentation.

Configuration

• api_token - The API token
• base_url - Base URL of your LeanIX instance. Can be https://yourorganization.leanix.net
• material [optional] - Set this to true if the material design template should be used. This requires the pymdownx.tabbed extension to be enabled

Alternatively to the api_token in the mkdocs.yml a environment variable called LEANIX_API_TOKEN can be set. This is likely the way in CI/CD scenarios.

Workspace information (name and id) is retrived from the JWT token.

Sample

plugins
  - leanix:
      api_token: asdfsa23kjlsadflkjsalkjf3 # or LEANIX_API_TOKEN environment variable
      base_url: https://yourcompany.leanix.net/
      workspace_name: test

Usage

Simply create a code block of the type leanix-factsheet and insert the GUID of the factsheet to be shown:

Sample

```leanix-factsheet
d3bdeca8-8f79-4ee9-af4b-e390accf9f3d
```

Customization

Own templates can be used. Add the path to the template after the factsheet GUID. The template must be inside the docs directory.

```leanix-factsheet
d3bdeca8-8f79-4ee9-af4b-e390accf9f3d
templates/custom_factsheet.jinja2
```

Get some inspiration of the packed templates. A factsheet object will be provided as fs and can be printed out with {{ fs }}. Two helper functions are provided:

• get_user(userid) - Gets friendly username from LeanIX and creates a Markdown mailto-link.
• get_font_color(backgroundColor) - Gets a black or white CSS color from a provided CSS background color. Can be used to ensure enough contrast between text and background color.
