Templates

Using your own templates

Dex supports using your own templates and passing arbitrary data to them to help customize your installation.

Steps:

1. Copy contents of the web directory over to a new directory.
2. Customize the templates as needed, be sure to retain all the existing variables so Dex continues working correctly. a. Use this syntax {{ "your_key" | extra }} to use values from frontend.extra.
3. Write a theme for your templates in the themes directory.
4. Add your custom data to the Dex configuration frontend.extra.

   frontend:
     dir: /path/to/custom/web
     issuer: my-dex
     extra:
       tos_footer_link: "https://example.com/terms"
       client_logo_url: "../theme/client-logo.png"
       foo: "bar"
   

5. Set the frontend.dir value to your own web directory.
6. Write the issuer in the issuer directory in order to modify the Dex title and the Log in to <<dex>> tag.

To test your templates simply run Dex with a valid configuration and go through a login flow.
