gridsome-remark-embed-snippet

Gridsome markdown remark transformer plugin to embed the contents of specified files as code snippets.

Ported from gatsby-remark-embed-snippet.

Install

Note: This plugin depends on @gridsome/transformer-remark plugin.

 npm install gridsome-remark-embed-snippet @gridsome/transformer-remark
yarn add gridsome-remark-embed-snippet @gridsome/transformer-remark

Configuration

gridsome.config.js

 module.exports = {
  transformers: {
    remark: {
      plugins: ['gridsome-remark-embed-snippet'],
    }
  }
}

Usage

1. Given the following project structure and example files some-code.js and example-post/index.md:

 Project structure:

project_root
├── content
│   └── example-post
│       ├── some-code.js
│       └── index.md
├── gridsome.config.js
└── ...

index.md

 # Example javascript embed

`embed:some-code.js`

Comments will also work.

 # Example javascript embed

<!-- embed:some-code.js -->

some-code.js

 function someFunc() {
  console.log('testo')
}

The resulting generated markdown will be:

 <h1>Example javascript embed</h1>
<pre>
  <code class="language-jsx">
    function someFunc() {
      console.log('testo')
    }
  </code>
</pre>

Note

Usage with @gridsome/remark-prismjs requires gridsome-remark-embed-snippet to be ordered before @gridsome/remark-prismjs. The code needs to be embedded (and to exist) for prism to transform it.

 module.exports = {
  transformers: {
    remark: {
      plugins: ['gridsome-remark-embed-snippet', '@gridsome/remark-prismjs']
    }
  }
}

Options

directory: Optionally, specify location of snippet files and pass in directory option. If directory option isn't specified, the plugin will use the path that it finds in the markdown file.

Example Usage One

 // gridsome.config.js
module.exports = {
  transformers: {
    remark: {
      plugins: [
        [
          'gridsome-remark-embed-snippet',
          {
            directory: `${__dirname}/snippets/`
          }
        ]
      ]
    }
  }
}

 project_root
├── content
│   └── example-post-1.md
├── snippets
│   └── example-post-1.js
└── ...

 <!-- example-post-1.md -->

# Example javascript embed

`embed:example-post-1.js`

Example Usage Two

Even without passing the directory option, code snippets don't have to be in the same folder. Just make sure that the path is relative to the directory in which the markdown file is located.

 // gridsome.config.js
module.exports = {
  transformers: {
    remark: {
      plugins: ['gridsome-remark-embed-snippet']
    }
  }
}

 project_root
├── content
│   └── example-post-1.md
├── snippets
│   └── example-post-1.js
└── ...

 <!-- example-post-1.md -->

# Example javascript embed

`embed:./../snippets/example-post-1.js`
