remark-wiki-link-a

This remark plugin parses and renders [[Wiki Links]]. It is derived from the plugin by landakram.

• Parse wiki-style links and render them as anchors
• Parse aliased wiki links i.e [[Real Page:Page Alias]]

Installation

[npm][npm]:

npm install remark-wiki-link-a

Usage

const unified = require('unified')
const markdown = require('remark-parse')
const wikiLinkPlugin = require('remark-wiki-link-a');

let processor = unified()
    .use(markdown, { gfm: true })
    .use(wikiLinkPlugin)

When the processor is run, wiki links will be parsed to a wikiLink node.

If we have this markdown string:

[[Test Page]]

A node will be created that looks like this:

{
    value: 'Test Page',
    data: {
        alias: 'Test Page',
        permalink: 'Test-Page.html',
        exists: false,
        hName: 'a',
        hProperties: {
            className: 'wikilink',
            href: 'Test-Page.html'
        },
        hChildren: [{
            type: 'text',
            value: 'Test Page'
        }]
    }
}

• data.alias: The display name for this link
• data.permalink: The permalink for this page. This permalink is computed from node.value using options.pageResolver, which can be passed in when initializing the plugin.
• data.exists: Whether the page exists. A page exists if its permalink is found in options.permalinks, passed when initializing the plugin.
• data.hProperties.className: Classes that are automatically attached to the a when it is rendered as HTML. These are configurable with options.wikiLinkClassName and options.newClassName. options.newClassName is attached when data.exists is false.
• data.hProperties.href: href value for the rendered a. This href is computed using options.hrefTemplate.

When rendered to HTML, we get:

<a class="wikilink" href="Test-Page.html">Test Page</a>
