gitbook-plugin-mathjax-beta v0.0.0

Math integration with GitBook

this is not a stable version for user who use the iojs/node4.0+

This plugin uses MathJax to display TeX formula. This is an official plugin. Versions >=0.1.0 require GitBook >=2.0.0.

How to use it?

Add it to your book.json configuration:

{
    plugins: ["mathjax-beta"]
}

Install your plugins using:

$ gitbook install ./

You can now add TeX formula to your book using the {% math %} block:

When {% math %}a \ne 0{% endmath %}, there are two solutions to {% math %}(ax^2 + bx + c = 0){% endmath %} and they are {% math %}x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.{% endmath %}

You can also use the shortcut $$:

When $$a \ne 0$$, there are two solutions to $$(ax^2 + bx + c = 0)$$ and they are $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$

Configuration

You can force the use of svg pre-processed by adding to your book.json:

{
	"pluginsConfig": {
		"mathjax":{
			"forceSVG": true
		}
	}
}
