commonmark-loader

A Webpack loader for Markdown rendering using Commonmark.

Installation

npm install --save-dev markdown-loader

Usage

Use the following loader configuration in your webpack.config.js file (webpack 2.x and later):

module.exports = {
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.md$/,
                loader: "commonmark-loader"
            }
        ]
    }
};

Options

All commonmark options are available, together with some loader specific options.

• wrapper: a html node such as <section> to be used for wrapping the rendered output. This feature is provided for integration with single file components, such as Vue's.
• sourcepos: if true, source position information for block-level elements will be rendered in the data-sourcepos attribute (for HTML) or the sourcepos attribute (for XML).
• smart: if true, straight quotes '" will be made curly, -- will be changed to an en dash, --- will be changed to an em dash, and ... will be changed to ellipses.
• safe: if true, raw HTML will not be passed through to HTML output (it will be replaced by comments), and potentially unsafe URLs in links and images (those beginning with javascript:, vbscript:, file:, and with a few exceptions data:) will be replaced with empty strings.
• softbreak: specify raw string to be used for a softbreak.
• esc: specify a function to be used to escape strings.

module.exports = {
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.md$/,
                loader: "commonmark-loader",
                options: {
                    sourcepos: true,
                    safe: true,
                    smart: true,
                    softbreak: '<br />',
                    esc: function(str) { return str; }
                }
            }
        ]
    }
};

Vue Loader Usage

To use it as a Vue template language <template lang='md'>, provide the following configuration for your vue loaders:

loaders['md'] = {
    loader: "commonmark-loader"
};
