Build Output

After npx contentkit build a .contentkit/ directory is created.

.contentkit/
  package.json          # name "dot-contentkit" for local imports
  generated/
    index.js
    index.d.ts
    types.d.ts
    Post/_index.json    # one per document type (array of docs)

Imports

TypeScript

import { allPosts } from "dot-contentkit/generated";

JavaScript

import { allPosts } from "dot-contentkit/generated";
// or CommonJS: const { allPosts } = require('dot-contentkit/generated');

Each document has frontmatter fields + any computed fields.

Types

types.d.ts exposes interfaces and unions.

TypeScript

import type { Post } from "dot-contentkit/generated";

JavaScript

// Types not available at runtime; for editors supporting JSDoc:
/** @typedef {import('dot-contentkit/generated').Post} Post */

Regeneration

Re-run the build whenever content or config changes. The directory is fully rewritten.

Source Control

Check in .contentkit/ for reproducible deploys or generate during CI – both models work.
