All about Data

Data Cascade

Data provided by Sissi

The _data subdirectory

The Frontmatter

Using data inside templates

Sissi supports a "poor girl's handlebars". It looks for expressions wrapped in double curly braces and replaces them with the data accordingly. If the data is resolved as a function, a parameterless function call will be invoked. If the data results a Promise, it is automatically resolved.

If you place a javascript file named meta.js in your _data directory which provides a default export, you can access the object like this:

export default {
  author: 'Lea'
};

{{ meta.author }}

Alternatively, you can put json or yaml into the data directory.
