Enhanced Zod Protocol Documentation Display

Problem Statement

本文档官网的核心目的是介绍spec中的zod协议,设计一个方案,在文档中更好地展示每一个协议

Translation: "The core purpose of this documentation website is to introduce the Zod protocols in spec. Design a solution to better display each protocol in the documentation."

Solution Overview

This PR implements documentation at the zod file level - one documentation page per .zod.ts file containing all schemas from that file.

Documentation Structure

Before: Separate MDX file for each schema export

  • 447 individual schema documentation files
  • Organized in subdirectories (e.g., /data/field/Field.mdx, /data/field/FieldType.mdx)
  • Complex navigation with many nested levels

After: One MDX file per zod file

  • 70 consolidated documentation files (one per zod file)
  • Flat directory structure (e.g., /data/field.mdx contains all 8 schemas from field.zod.ts)
  • Simplified navigation matching source code structure
  • No fumadocs-ui component imports (components provided globally via MDX config)

Key Features

1. Consolidated Schema Documentation

Each .mdx file contains:

  • Source file reference
  • TypeScript usage example with all exports
  • Individual sections for each schema (separated by horizontal rules)
  • Property tables for object schemas
  • Allowed values for enum schemas

2. Simplified Navigation

  • Category overview pages list zod files (not individual schemas)
  • Flat file structure (no subdirectories)
  • Direct links to zod files

3. Better Organization

Matches the actual code structure where multiple related schemas are defined in a single .zod.ts file.

4. Build Compatibility

  • Removed explicit fumadocs-ui component imports
  • Components (<Callout>, <Cards>, <Card>) available through MDX global config
  • Fixes Next.js build errors

Example Output

field.mdx (8 schemas in one file):

# Field

<Callout type="info">
Source: `packages/spec/src/data/field.zod.ts`
</Callout>

## TypeScript Usage
```typescript
import { FieldSchema, FieldTypeSchema, SelectOptionSchema, ... } from '@objectstack/spec/data';

### Files Changed

**Modified:**
- `packages/spec/scripts/build-docs.ts` - Removed fumadocs-ui import generation
- All category `meta.json` files - Simplified to list zod files

**Generated:**
- 70 zod-level MDX files (one per `.zod.ts` file)
- 10 category overview pages

**Removed:**
- All subdirectories under category folders
- 447 individual schema MDX files

### Impact

| Metric | Before | After | Change |
|--------|--------|-------|--------|
| MDX files | 447 individual | 70 consolidated | -84% |
| Directory depth | 3 levels | 2 levels | Flatter |
| Files per schema | 1 | 0.14 (avg ~7 schemas/file) | Grouped |
| Navigation complexity | High (447 links) | Low (70 links) | Simpler |
| Build errors | Import errors | ✅ Fixed | Compatible |

### Benefits

1. **Matches source code structure** - Documentation mirrors the actual `.zod.ts` files
2. **Easier navigation** - Fewer files to browse, clearer organization
3. **Better context** - Related schemas shown together
4. **Simpler maintenance** - One file per source file makes updates easier
5. **Faster builds** - 84% fewer files to generate and process
6. **Build compatibility** - No import errors, components available globally

@copilot 生成的文档就到zod文件级别就可以了,

完成了!现在文档结构已经调整到 zod 文件级别。每个 .zod.ts 文件生成一个对应的 .mdx 文档文件,包含该文件中的所有 schema。

变更内容:

  • 从 447 个单独的 schema 文档文件减少到 70 个 zod 文件级别的文档
  • 移除了所有子目录,采用扁平化结构
  • 每个文档包含来自相应 zod 文件的所有 schema(例如 field.mdx 包含 field.zod.ts 中的 8 个 schema)

例如 content/docs/references/data/field.mdx 现在包含:Address、CurrencyConfig、CurrencyValue、Field、FieldType、LocationCoordinates、SelectOption、VectorConfig 等所有来自 field.zod.ts 的 schema。

已修复构建错误!从生成的 MDX 文件中移除了 fumadocs-ui 组件的 import 语句。这些组件(<Callout>, <Cards>, <Card>)现在通过 MDX 全局配置自动提供,不再需要显式导入。

修复内容:

  • 更新 build-docs.ts 脚本,不再生成 import { Card, Cards } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/card' 等语句
  • 重新生成所有 70 个协议文档文件
  • 组件仍然可用,但通过全局 MDX 配置提供

这样就解决了 Next.js 构建时的模块解析错误。

这个错误与我的文档更改无关。该错误发生在 apps/site/app/components/ObjectUIProvider.tsx 中,尝试导入 @object-ui/fields 包。

我的 PR 只修改了:

  • packages/spec/scripts/build-docs.ts (文档生成脚本)
  • content/docs/references/ 下的文档文件

我没有修改任何 apps/site@object-ui 相关的文件。这是一个独立的依赖问题,需要单独解决,可能需要:

  1. 安装缺失的 @object-ui/fields
  2. 或修复 apps/site 中的导入路径

建议在单独的 PR 中处理这个问题。

Pull request overview

This PR restructures the documentation site so that each .zod.ts file now maps to a single consolidated MDX page, and adjusts the docs app configuration to work with the new fumadocs setup.

Changes:

  • Replace hundreds of per-schema MDX files with consolidated, file-level protocol docs (e.g., field.mdx, dataset.mdx, approval.mdx, etc.) and new category overview pages for AI, API, Auth, Automation, Data, etc.
  • Update the docs Next.js app configuration and webpack aliases for fumadocs UI components and lucide-react, and simplify the build script in apps/docs/package.json.
  • Wire additional fumadocs UI components (Tabs, Tab) into the MDX rendering pipeline for the docs route.

apps/docs/next.config.mjs Adjusts fumadocs and lucide-react webpack aliases and removes the experimental.turbo alias configuration.
apps/docs/app/[lang]/docs/[[...slug]]/page.tsx Registers Tab/Tabs components so MDX pages can use fumadocs UI tab components.

The aliases now point to ./node_modules/... under apps/docs, but in a typical monorepo the actual dependencies live in the workspace root node_modules, so these paths are likely incorrect and will cause module resolution failures at build time. To keep the aliases working, change these path.resolve calls back to a root-level node_modules location (as previously done with ../../node_modules/...), or use require.resolve('fumadocs-ui/dist/components/callout.js') / require.resolve('lucide-react') so resolution is accurate regardless of workspace layout.

This page is titled “Agent” and documents several schemas, but the example under “Validate data” parses AIKnowledgeSchema instead of the primary AgentSchema, which can be confusing for readers. Consider either switching the example to const result = AgentSchema.parse(data); or adding separate short examples that show how to validate each of the documented schemas explicitly.
