mdformat_mkdocs 2.0.0rc1

An mdformat plugin for mkdocs.

mdformat-mkdocs

An mdformat plugin for mkdocs and mkdocs-material in particular.

Supports:

• Indents are converted to 4-spaces instead of 2
  • Note: see caveats when using the optional Semantic Indents on numbered lists which may not be a full multiple of 4
• List bullets are converted to dashes instead of *
• Admonitions (extends mdformat-admon)
• MKDocs-Material Content Tabs (https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/reference/content-tabs)
  • Note: the markup (HTML) rendered by this plugin is sufficient for formatting but not for viewing in a browser. Please open an issue if you have a need to generate valid HTML.

See the example test files, ./tests/pre-commit-test.md and ./tests/format/fixtures.md

Warning

HTML Rendering

from markdown_it import MarkdownIt
from mdformat_mkdocs.mdit_plugins import mkdocs_admon_plugin

md = MarkdownIt()
md.use(mkdocs_admon_plugin)

text = '??? note\n    content'
md.render(text)
# <details class="note">
# <summary>Note</summary>
# <p>content</p>
# </details>

CLI Options

mdformat-mkdocs adds the CLI argument --align-semantic-breaks-in-lists to optionally align line breaks in numbered lists to 3-spaces. If not specified, the default of 4-indents is followed universally.

# with: mdformat
1. Semantic line feed where the following line is
    three spaces deep

# vs. with: mdformat --align-semantic-breaks-in-lists
1. Semantic line feed where the following line is
   three spaces deep

Note: the align-semantic-breaks-in-lists setting is not supported in the configuration file yet (https://github.com/executablebooks/mdformat/issues/378)
