<details>
<summary>Vite</summary><br>
// vite.config.ts
import Vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import Markdown from 'unplugin-vue-markdown/vite'

Vue({
include: [/\.vue$/, /\.md$/], // <-- allows Vue to compile Markdown files
}),
Markdown({ /* options */ }),
],
})

module.exports = {
parallel: false, // Disable thread-loader which will cause errors, we are still investigating the root cause

config
.plugin('markdown')
.use(Markdown({

Import Markdown as Vue components
<template>
<HelloWorld />
</template>
<script>
import HelloWorld from './README.md'
export default {
components: {
HelloWorld,
},
}
</script>
Use Vue Components inside Markdown
You can even use Vue components inside your markdown, for example
<Counter :init='5'/>
<Counter :init='5'/>
Note you can either register the components globally, or use the <script setup>
tag to register them locally.
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import Counter from './Counter.vue'
const app = createApp(App)
// register global
app.component('Counter', Counter) // <--
app.mount()
<script setup>
import { Counter } from './Counter.vue'
</script>
<Counter :init='5'/>
Or you can use unplugin-vue-components
for auto components registration.
Frontmatter
Frontmatter will be parsed and inject into Vue's instance data frontmatter
field.
For example:
---
name: My Cool App
---
# Hello World
This is {{frontmatter.name}}
Will be rendered as
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<p>This is My Cool App</p>
It will also be passed to the wrapper component's props if you have set wrapperComponent
option.
Document head and meta
To manage document head and meta, you would need to install @unhead/vue
and do some setup.
npm i @unhead/vue
// vite.config.js
import Vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import Markdown from 'unplugin-vue-markdown/vite'
export default {
plugins: [
Vue({
include: [/\.vue$/, /\.md$/],
}),
Markdown({
headEnabled: true // <--
})
]
}
// src/main.js
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import { createHead } from '@unhead/vue'
// <--
const app = createApp(App)
const head = createHead() // <--
app.use(head) // <--
Then you can use frontmatter to control the head. For example:
---
title: My Cool App
meta:
- name: description
content: Hello World
---
For more options available, please refer to @unhead/vue
's docs.
Options
unplugin-vue-markdown
uses markdown-it
under the hood, see markdown-it
's docs for more details
// vite.config.js
import Markdown from 'unplugin-vue-markdown/vite'
import MarkdownItAnchor from 'markdown-it-anchor'
import MarkdownItPrism from 'markdown-it-prism'
export default {
plugins: [
Markdown({
// default options passed to markdown-it
// see: https://markdown-it.github.io/markdown-it/
markdownItOptions: {
html: true,
linkify: true,
typographer: true,
},
// A function providing the Markdown It instance gets the ability to apply custom settings/plugins
markdownItSetup(md) {
// for example
md.use(MarkdownItAnchor)
md.use(MarkdownItPrism)
},
// Class names for the wrapper div
wrapperClasses: 'markdown-body'
})
],
}
See the tsdoc for more advanced options
Example
See the /examples.
Or the pre-configured Markdown template Vitesse.
Integrations
Work with vite-plugin-pages
import Vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import Markdown from 'unplugin-vue-markdown/vite'
import Pages from 'vite-plugin-pages'
export default {
plugins: [
Vue({
include: [/\.vue$/, /\.md$/],
}),
Pages({
extensions: ['vue', 'md'],
}),
Markdown()
],
}
Put your markdown under ./src/pages/xx.md
, then you can access the page via route /xx
.
Work with unplugin-vue-components
unplugin-vue-components
allows you to do on-demand components auto-importing without worrying about registration.
import Vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import Markdown from 'unplugin-vue-markdown/vite'
import Components from 'unplugin-vue-components/vite'
export default {
plugins: [
Vue({
include: [/\.vue$/, /\.md$/],
}),
Markdown(),
// should be placed after `Markdown()`
Components({
// allow auto load markdown components under `./src/components/`
extensions: ['vue', 'md'],
// allow auto import and register components used in markdown
include: [/\.vue$/, /\.vue\?vue/, /\.md$/],
})
],
}
Components under ./src/components
can be directly used in markdown components, and markdown components can also be put under ./src/components
to be auto imported.
TypeScript Shim
declare module '*.vue' {
import type { ComponentOptions } from 'vue'
const Component: ComponentOptions
export default Component
}
declare module '*.md' {
import type { ComponentOptions } from 'vue'
const Component: ComponentOptions
export default Component
}
