vue-autoblog

A compile-time tool to generate .vue single-file-components from markdown.

Install

yarn

yarn add -D vue-autoblog

npm

npm install vue-autoblog --save-dev

Usage

Run npx vue-autoblog or ./node_modules/vue-autoblog/bin/main.js to generate .vue files to for your project. A .autoblog.json configuration file is required in the root directory of your project for configuring the tool (see the configuration section below for example).

vue-autoblog reads .md files from your input folder and generates single-file .vue components. Each .md file can have YAML front-matter at the top for specifying metadata and extra information for each post.

Configuration

vue-autoblog reads a .autoblog.json file located in the root directory of your project for configuring the output of the generated files.

Example .autoblog.json file

{
  "markdownit": {
    "xhtmlOut": true,
    "linkify": true,
    "typographer": true
  },
  "directory": {
    "inputFolder": "src/md/",
    "outputFolder": "src/autoblog/"
  },
  "defaultStyle": "blog",
  "outputType": "vue",
  "typescript": true,
  "vue": {
    "outputMeta": true
  }
}

markdownit (markdown-it config options)

vue-autoblog uses markdown-it to parse markdown into HTML. Specify markdown-it config options in the configuration JSON to configure the markdown parser.

directory (input and output folder strings)

• inputFolder: the folder to read .md files from

• outputFolder: the folder to output rendered .vue files to

NOTE: To avoid conflicts during .vue file generation, try to set directory.outputFolder to be different from directory.inputFolder.

defaultStyle (string)

outputType (string)

Specify the type of file to generate and output. Defaults to "vue", but can be set to "html" if one wishes to simply generate .html files in the output folder.

typescript (boolean)

If you are using typescript, setting this value to true will generate .d.ts typings for the generated routes and posts files.

vue (vue specific settings)

• outputMeta (boolean):

  Set this to true if you are using vue-meta to output metaInfo values into the script portion of the generated .vue files.
