Gatsby: How to use context without graphQL query?

[Steffi3rd]

Hi,

I created pages using an array. And I would like to path letters in context but I doesn't work because it seems I have to use it in GraphQL queries.

What is the solution to use context outside of GraphQL queries, such as props maybe?

Thanks

  'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.split('').map(letter => {
    createPage({
      path: `definitions/${letter}`,
      component: path.resolve('src/templates/definitions.js'),
      context: {
        letter,
      },
    });
  });

hi the context is being passed as prop automatically. you can use it in your page template like this if you are working with the v2 of gatsby:
const { pathContext } = this.props;
cost { letter } = pathContext;

Perfect, so simple! Thanks @arturhenryy!!
