Remark-codesandbox-sandpack

Remark-CodeSandbox is a dynamic tool still under development, designed to run code snippets embedded in Markdown files directly in CodeSandbox. This tool leverages react-sandpack to provide a seamless experience in both node and browser environments.

Current Status

• Development: The tool is currently in active development and more features are being added.
• Support: It already supports execution in both node and browser environments.

Key Features

• Integration with CodeSandbox: Allows for Markdown embedded code snippets to be executed directly in CodeSandbox.
• Environment Flexibility: Runs seamlessly in both node and browser setups.

Usage

To use Remark-CodeSandbox in your Markdown files, you need to include code snippets formatted in a specific way to specify the sandbox configuration. Below are the parameters that you can configure:

• style: CSS styles for the CodeSandbox container.
• theme: Theme of the CodeSandbox editor.
• mode: Defines the mode of the sandbox, currently it just could use sandpack to use this tool.
• type: Specifies the type of sandbox environment.
• name: Sets the name of the file in the sandbox.
• external: CodeSandbox's external loading links, for additional resources or libraries.

Installation

To install Remark-CodeSandbox, you can use pnpm or yarn:

pnpm add remark-codesandbox-sandpack remark

Use with remark:

import { remark } from 'remark';

remark().use(remarkSandpack, { mode: 'sandpack' });

Use in react-markdown:

...
    <ReactMarkdown
      components={{
        code: SandpackStrategy,
      }}
      remarkPlugins={remarkPlugins}
      rehypePlugins={rehypePlugins}
    >
      {content}
    </ReactMarkdown>
...

const SandpackStrategy = ({ props, children, node, language, className }) => {
  const { html, type } = props;
  const isLink = type === 'link';
  const blob = new Blob([html], { type: 'text/html' });
  const url = isLink ? html : URL.createObjectURL(blob);

  return (
    <div
      style={{
        margin: '2rem 0',
      }}>
      <iframe
        style={{
          width: '100%',
          height: 900,
          outline: '1px solid #252525',
