@md-plugins/md-plugin-title v0.1.0-alpha.29

@md-plugins/md-plugin-title

A Markdown-It plugin that extracts the first <h1> title from Markdown content and stores it in the Markdown-It environment (env). This is particularly useful for generating page titles dynamically or for metadata extraction in documentation and content management systems.

Features

• Extracts the first <h1> from Markdown content.
• Stores the extracted title in the title property of the Markdown-It environment (env).
• Provides flexibility to handle scenarios with or without a title.
• Seamlessly integrates into content pipelines for title-based features.

Installation

Install the plugin via your preferred package manager:

# with pnpm:
pnpm add @md-plugins/md-plugin-title
# with Yarn:
yarn add @md-plugins/md-plugin-title
# with npm:
npm install @md-plugins/md-plugin-title

Usage

Basic Setup

import MarkdownIt from 'markdown-it';
import { titlePlugin } from '@md-plugins/md-plugin-title';
import type { MarkdownItEnv } from '@md-plugins/shared';

const md = new MarkdownIt();
md.use(titlePlugin);

const markdownContent = `
# This is the Page Title

Some content here.
`;

const env: MarkdownItEnv = {};
const renderedOutput = md.render(markdownContent, env);

console.log('Rendered Output:', renderedOutput);
console.log('Extracted Title:', env.title);

Example Output

For the example above, the env will contain the following:

{
  "title": "This is the Page Title"
}

And the rendered Markdown output will appear as usual:

<h1>This is the Page Title</h1>
<p>Some content here.</p>
