remark-contributors

remark plugin to inject a given list of contributors into a table.

Install

npm:

npm install remark-contributors

Use

Say we have the following file, example.md:

# Example

Some text.

## Contributors

## License

MIT

And our script, example.js, looks as follows:

var vfile = require('to-vfile')
var remark = require('remark')
var contributors = require('remark-contributors')

remark()
  .use(contributors)
  .process(vfile.readSync('example.md'), function(err, file) {
    if (err) throw err
    console.log(String(file))
  })

Now, running node example yields:

# Example

Some text.

API

remark().use(contributors[, options])

Inject a given list of contributors.

• Looks for the first heading containing 'Contributors' (case insensitive)
• If no heading is found and appendIfMissing is set, inject such a heading
• Replaces the table in that section if there is one, or injects it otherwise

Options

options.contributors

List of contributors to inject (Array.<Object>). Defaults to the contributors field in the package.json, if there is one. Supports the string form (name <email> (url)) as well. Fails if no contributors are found or given.

options.align

Alignment to use for all cells in the table (left, right, center, default: null).

options.appendIfMissing

Inject the section if there is none (boolean, default: false).

options.formatters

Map of fields found in contributors to formatters (Object.<Formatter>). These given formatters extend the default formatters.

The keys in formatters should correspond directly (case-sensitive) to keys in contributors.

The values can be:

• null or undefined — does nothing
• false — shortcut for {label: key, exclude: true}, can be used to exclude default formatters
• true — shortcut for {label: key}, can be used to include default formatters (like email)
• string — shortcut for {label: value}
• Formatter — …or a proper formatter object

Formatters have the following properties:

• label — text in the header row that labels the column for this field
• exclude — whether to ignore these fields (default: false)
• format — function called with value, key, contributor to format the value. Expected to return PhrasingContent. Can return null or undefined (ignored), a string (wrapped in a text node), a string that looks like a URL (wrapped in a link), one node, or multiple nodes

Notes

• Define fields other than name, url, github, or twitter in formatters to label them properly
• By default, fields named url will be labelled Website (so that package.json contributors field is displayed nicely)
• By default, fields named email are ignored
• Name fields are displayed as strong
• GitHub and Twitter URLs are automatically stripped and displayed with @mentions wrapped in an https:// link
• If a field is undefined for a given contributor, then the value will be an empty table cell
• Columns are sorted in the order they are defined (first defined => first displayed)
