@contentful/rich-text-from-markdown v16.0.0

rich-text-from-markdown

A library to convert markdown to Contentful Rich Text document format.

Installation

Using npm:

npm install @contentful/rich-text-from-markdown

Using yarn:

yarn add @contentful/rich-text-from-markdown

Usage

Basic

const { richTextFromMarkdown } = require('@contentful/rich-text-from-markdown');

const document = await richTextFromMarkdown('# Hello World');

Advanced

The library will convert automatically the following markdown nodes:

• paragraph
• heading
• text
• emphasis
• strong
• delete
• inlineCode
• link
• thematicBreak
• blockquote
• list
• listItem
• table
• tableRow
• tableCell

If the markdown content has unsupported nodes like image ![image](url) you can add a callback as a second argument and it will get called everytime an unsupported node is found. The return value of the callback will be the rich text representation of that node.

Example:

const { richTextFromMarkdown } = require('@contentful/rich-text-from-markdown');

// define your own type for unsupported nodes like asset
const document = await richTextFromMarkdown(
  "![image]('https://example.com/image.jpg')",
  (node) => ({
    nodeType: 'embedded-[entry|asset]-[block|inline]',
    content: [],
    data: {
      target: {
        sys: {
          type: 'Link',
          linkType: 'Entry|Asset',
          id: '.........',
        },
      },
    },
  }),
);
