Asciimath Parser

A parser that transforms asciimath to LaTeX.

What is asciimath

A js implementation of simple mathematical formula markup language. Easier to learn and easier to use than LaTeX.

• Without tedious backslashes of LaTeX, it is readable.
• Even if the formula has syntax errors, only a single formula is affected, but the entire page is not affected.
• Asciimath precedence is complicated, but you can just add parentheses when in doubt.

How to use

Install

ni -D asciimath-parser

If you want to render the formula in HTML document, you should also install katex.

Use

import { AsciiMath } from 'asciimath-parser'
const am = new AsciiMath()
console.log(am.toTex('sum _(n=1) ^(+oo) 1/(n^2) = (pi^2)/6'))
// \displaystyle{ \sum_{ n = 1 }^{ + \infty }\frac{ 1 }{ n ^{ 2 } }=\frac{ \pi ^{ 2 } }{ 6 } }

Configuration

import { AsciiMath } from 'asciimath-parser'
import type { AsciiMathConfig } from 'asciimath-parser'
const cfg: AsciiMathConfig = {
  /**
   * @default true
   * enable displayMode in KaTeX
   */
  display: true,
  /**
   * Extend tokens of asciimath
   * ```ts
   * {
   *   // Simply transform `d0` to `d theta`
   *   'd0': { type: TokenTypes.Const, tex: '{\\text{d}\\theta}' },
   *   // Token with unary symbol, the `$1` will be replaced with the following symbol
   *   'tsc': { type: TokenTypes.OperatorOA, tex: '\\textsc{$1}' },
   *   // Token with binary symbols, the `$1` and `$2` will be replaced with the following two symbols
   *   'frac': { type: TokenTypes.OperatorOAB, tex: '\\frac{ $1 }{ $2 }' },
   *   // Infix expression, the `$1` and `$2` will be replaced with the previous symbol and next symbol respectively
   *   'over': { type: TokenTypes.OperatorAOB, tex: '{ $1 \\over $2 }' },
   * }
   * ```
   *
   * You can extend the token types mentioned above, but it is *not recommended* to extend all types of [`enum TokenTypes`](https://github.com/widcardw/asciimath-parser/blob/main/packages/core/src/symbols.ts#L1-L20).
