Is it possible to use files stored inside github repo?

[AuJezus]

Hello, I really like velite, it's a great project so please keep working on it :).

I would like to store my files on github repo, so I could use this as hosting for my .mdx files and each website that will consume these files will be able to pass it's own react components to render to html.

I know it's possible to get files from github using contentLayer, but I would like to use velite.

Currently, Velite does not support remote content sources.

You can consider using git submodule with automated workflows to implement it.

Thank you, I will try to do that.

Will Velite supporting remote content sources be an expected feature in the later future?

At present, we can only say that it is possible,

The current consideration is to implement it through a custom loader.

Although the loader architecture is not designed to support this.

maybe future:

import { defineLoader } from 'velite'

export default defineLoader({
  // name: 'json',
  test: /^http\:\/\//,
  load: pattern => {
    // fetch data from remote
    return new VFile({ ... })
  }
})
