Document how to display content outside component (e.g., RSS)

Users will want to display their content outside of components, such as in an RSS feed. Currently, the displaying content page only discusses using a component to render content. The document object does not include HTML or a plaintext summary that could be used for this.

Describe the solution you’d like

On the Displaying content page, document how to include content programmatically, such as in an RSS feed.

Here’s me building integration with nuxtjs/feed and you merge a PR showing how to do it 😄

Bu, #93 still uses summary, without a good way to take the JSON AST and turn it into a string of HTML.

Besides storing text against the object and running it through a parser, any suggestions on how to achieve this?

@philipithomas Yes that’s right, this is common practice so that potential readers are still coming back to your site (so you can obtain some more meaningful analytics metrics if you’re into this stuff). And using @nuxt/content you do not have access to a textual version of the body directly, only the JSON AST.

However you have access to the text field containing the raw body during the hook file:beforeInsert according to: https://content.nuxtjs.org/advanced#contentfilebeforeinsert You could copy it and/or process it in some way to extract a plain-text body to be injected afterwards in feeds content section.
