Usage

Basic MDX Processing

import { mdx } from '@mdx.do/mdx'

const mdxContent = `---
title: Hello World
---

# Welcome

This is a paragraph with a <Button>Click me</Button>`

const result = await mdx(mdxContent)
console.log(result.data) // { title: 'Hello World' }
console.log(result.default) // React component

Component Registration

import { registerComponent } from '@mdx.do/mdx'
import { Button } from './components'

// Register a component for use in MDX
registerComponent('Button', Button)

Merging Frontmatter

const result = await mdx(mdxContent)
const updated = await result.merge({ author: 'John Doe' })
// Updates frontmatter while preserving content

Appending Content

const result = await mdx('# Hello')
const updated = await result.append('## World')
// Results in: # Hello\n\n## World

Object Input

const HelloWorld = () => <div>Hello World</div>

const result = await mdx({
  jsx: HelloWorld,
  data: { title: 'My Page' }
})

API Reference

mdx(input: string | MDXInput): Promise<MDXResult>

Main function to process MDX content.

Input Types

interface MDXInput {
  jsx?: ComponentType<any>    // React component
  data?: Record<string, any>  // Frontmatter data
  ast?: Root                  // MDAST Root node
  mdx?: string               // MDX string
}

Result Object

interface MDXResult {
  mdx: string                // Original MDX content
  data: Record<string, any>  // Parsed frontmatter
  ast: Root                  // Parsed AST
  default: ComponentType<any> // Compiled React component
  markdown: ComponentType<any> // Markdown-only component
  merge: (update: Record<string, any>) => Promise<MDXResult>
  append: (content: string) => Promise<MDXResult>
}

Component Registry

registerComponent(name: string, component: ComponentType<any>): void
getComponent(name: string): ComponentType<any> | undefined
getAllComponents(): Record<string, ComponentType<any>>

Examples

Blog Post with Components

import { mdx, registerComponent } from '@mdx.do/mdx'
import { CodeBlock, Image } from './components'

// Register custom components
registerComponent('CodeBlock', CodeBlock)
registerComponent('Image', Image)

const blogPost = `---
title: Getting Started with React
author: John Doe
date: 2023-12-15
---

# Getting Started with React

Here's a simple example:

<CodeBlock language="jsx">
  function App() {
    return <h1>Hello World</h1>
  }
</CodeBlock>

<Image src="react-logo.png" alt="React Logo" />
`

const result = await mdx(blogPost)
// Use result.default to render the blog post

Dynamic Content

const base = await mdx('# My Document')
const updated = await base.append('## New Section')
const final = await updated.merge({ 
  lastModified: new Date().toISOString() 
})
