What is this?
This package is a unified (remark) plugin to configure remark
(specifically, how remark-stringify
formats markdown) from YAML frontmatter.
When should I use this?
This project is useful when you want to change how markdown is formatted from within a file. You can use this when you trust authors and want to give them control.
This plugin is very similar to the alternative
remark-comment-config
.
The difference is that that plugin uses comments, which can come anywhere in the
document, whereas this plugin uses YAML frontmatter, which comes at the start of
documents.
Install
This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:
npm install remark-yaml-config
In Deno with esm.sh
:
import remarkYamlConfig from 'https://esm.sh/remark-yaml-config@7'
In browsers with esm.sh
:
<script type="module">
import remarkYamlConfig from 'https://esm.sh/remark-yaml-config@7?bundle'
</script>
Use
Say we have the following file example.md
:
---
remark:
bullet: "+"
---
- Triton
…and a module example.js
:
import {remark} from 'remark'
import remarkFrontmatter from 'remark-frontmatter'
import remarkYamlConfig from 'remark-yaml-config'
import {read} from 'to-vfile'
const file = await remark()
.use(remarkFrontmatter)
.use(remarkYamlConfig)
.process(await read('example.md'))
console.log(String(file))
⚠️ Important:
remark-frontmatter
is needed to support YAML frontmatter in markdown.
…then running node example.js
yields:
---
remark:
bullet: "+"
---
+ Triton
API
This package exports no identifiers.
The default export is remarkYamlConfig
.
unified().use(remarkYamlConfig)
Configure remark with YAML frontmatter.
Parses YAML frontmatter and takes the value of the remark
field as settings.
The settings are passed to remark-stringify
.
Parameters
There are no parameters.
Returns
Nothing (undefined
).
Types
This package is fully typed with TypeScript. It exports no additional types.
Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line, remark-yaml-config@^7
,
compatible with Node.js 16.
This plugin works with remark
version 13+.
Version 5 (and lower) worked with older versions of remark.
Security
Use of remark-yaml-config
can change how markdown is parsed or compiled.
If the markdown is user provided, this may open you up to a
cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
