description: Automatically refresh your Context7 library when your docs change
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Keep your Context7 documentation in sync by triggering a refresh whenever you push to your main branch.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Get your API key">
|
|
Go to your [Context7 dashboard](https://context7.com/dashboard) and copy your API key.
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Add the API key as a repository secret">
|
|
In your GitHub repository, go to **Settings** → **Secrets and variables** → **Actions** and add a new secret:
|
|
|
|
| Name | Value |
|
|
|------|-------|
|
|
| `CONTEXT7_API_KEY` | Your API key from the Context7 dashboard |
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Create the workflow file">
|
|
Add the following file to your repository at `.github/workflows/context7-refresh.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
name: Refresh Context7 Docs
|
|
|
|
on:
|
|
push:
|
|
branches:
|
|
- master # change to your default branch if different
|
|
|
|
jobs:
|
|
refresh:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
steps:
|
|
- name: Trigger Context7 Refresh
|
|
run: |
|
|
curl -s -X POST https://context7.com/api/v1/refresh \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.CONTEXT7_API_KEY }}" \
|
|
-d '{"libraryName": "/${{ github.repository }}"}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This uses `${{ github.repository }}` to automatically resolve to your repository's `owner/repo` (e.g., `vercel/next.js`). If your library ID on Context7 differs from your GitHub repository name, replace it with the correct value (e.g., `/your-org/your-repo`).
|
|
</Step>
|
|
</Steps>
|
|
|
|
## Refreshing a Specific Branch
|
|
|
|
To refresh a non-default branch, add the `branch` field to the request body. The `branch` value must match a branch name that already exists on your library in Context7.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- name: Trigger Context7 Refresh
|
|
run: |
|
|
curl -s -X POST https://context7.com/api/v1/refresh \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.CONTEXT7_API_KEY }}" \
|
|
-d '{"libraryName": "/your-org/your-repo", "branch": "v2"}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
If the branch has not been added to your library on Context7, the refresh will fail with a `branch_not_found` error.
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Private Repositories
|
|
|
|
For private repositories, include a `gitToken` so Context7 can access your code:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- name: Trigger Context7 Refresh
|
|
run: |
|
|
curl -s -X POST https://context7.com/api/v1/refresh \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.CONTEXT7_API_KEY }}" \
|
|
-d '{"libraryName": "/your-org/your-repo", "gitToken": "${{ secrets.GIT_ACCESS_TOKEN }}"}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Private sources require a Pro or Enterprise plan. See the [Private Sources](/howto/private-sources) guide for more details.
