Package Exports
- remark
- remark/lib/cli
- remark/lib/cli/cli
- remark/package.json
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (remark) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
⚠️
remark recently underwent quite some changes. For one, it’s name changed from mdast. This means all the plug-ins in the ecosystem need to change names too, which may result in some turbulence the coming weeks (but most of the dust has already settled).
remark is a markdown processor powered by plugins. Lots of tests. Node, io.js, and the browser. 100% coverage.
remark is not just another markdown to HTML compiler. It can generate, and reformat, markdown too. It is powered by plugins to do all kinds of things: validate your markdown, add links for GitHub references, or add a table of contents.
The project contains both an extensive JavaScript API for parsing, modifying, and compiling markdown, and a friendly Command Line Interface making it easy to validate, prepare, and compile markdown in a build step.

Usage
Load dependencies:
var remark = require('remark');
var html = require('remark-html');
var yamlConfig = require('remark-yaml-config');
Use plugins:
var processor = remark().use(yamlConfig).use(html);
Process the document:
var doc = processor.process([
'---',
'remark:',
' commonmark: true',
'---',
'',
'2) Some *emphasis*, **strongness**, and `code`.'
].join('\n'));
Yields:
<ol start="2">
<li>Some <em>emphasis</em>, <strong>strongness</strong>, and <code>code</code>.</li>
</ol>

done
(function(Error?, string?)
) — Callback invoked when the output is generated with either an error, or a result. Only strictly needed when asynchronous plugins are used.
All options (including the options object itself) can be null
or undefined
to default to their default values.
Returns
string
or null
: A document. Formatted in markdown by default, or in
whatever a plugin generates.
The result is null
if a plugin is asynchronous, in which case the callback
done
should’ve been passed (do not worry: plugin creators make sure you know
its asynchronous).
remark.use(plugin, options?)
Change the way remark
works by using a plugin
.
Signatures
processor = remark.use(plugin, options?)
;processor = remark.use(plugins)
.
Parameters
plugin
(Function
) — A Plugin;plugins
(Array.<Function>
) — A list of Plugins;options
(Object?
) — Passed to plugin. Specified by its documentation.
Returns
Object
: an instance of Remark: The returned object functions just like
remark (it has the same methods), but caches the use
d plugins. This
provides the ability to chain use
calls to use multiple plugins, but
ensures the functioning of the remark module does not change for other
dependents.
