markdown-it-class

Plugin for markdown-it to allow adding classes to HTML tags.

Install

You can install it using yarn or npm

npm install --save-dev markdown-it-class

Usage

All you have to do is register the plugin and pass the tag to class mapping.

const MarkdownIt = require('markdown-it')
const markdownItClass = require('markdown-it-class')

// Setup the markdown renderer
const md = MarkdownIt()
  // Register the plugin and pass a tag to class mapping
  .use(markdownItClass, {
    h1: ['text-2xl', 'font-bold', 'mb-3', 'text-blue-700'],
    p: ['text-md'],
  });

const markdownString = fs.readFileSync('post.md', 'utf-8');
const html = md.render(markdownString);

// HTML with classes assigned to the tags
console.log(html);

Credits

This package is a fork of HiroshiOkada/markdown-it-class with the support for all sorts of HTML tags. The original package has the invalid conditional logic for assigning classes due to which it misses several HTML tags.
