mkdocs-pseudocode 0.1.0

A MkDocs plugin to render beautiful pseudocode with LaTeX-inspired syntax.

MkDocs Pseudocode Plugin

This MkDocs plugin allows you to write beautiful pseudocode in your MkDocs documentation using a simplified syntax inspired by LaTeX.

Features

• Render pseudocode blocks with LaTeX-inspired syntax
• Support for common control structures (if, for, while, repeat, foreach)
• Math expressions rendered using MathJax
• Nested procedures and calls
• Automatic indentation and keyword highlighting

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/mkdocs-pseudocode-plugin.git
   cd mkdocs-pseudocode-plugin
   

2. Install the plugin locally:

3. Add the plugin to your mkdocs.yml configuration file:

   plugins:
     - search
     - pseudocode
   

Usage

Write your pseudocode in fenced code blocks with the pseudocode language identifier:

```pseudocode
% This quicksort algorithm is extracted from Chapter 7, Introduction to Algorithms (3rd edition)
\begin{algorithm}
\caption{Quicksort}
\begin{algorithmic}
\PROCEDURE{Quicksort}{$A, p, r$}
    \IF{$p < r$} 
        \STATE $q = $ \CALL{Partition}{$A, p, r$}
        \STATE \CALL{Quicksort}{$A, p, q - 1$}
        \STATE \CALL{Quicksort}{$A, q + 1, r$}
    \ENDIF
\ENDPROCEDURE
\PROCEDURE{Partition}{$A, p, r$}
    \STATE $x = A[r]$
    \STATE $i = p - 1$
    \FOR{$j = p$ \TO $r - 1$}
        \IF{$A[j] < x$}
            \STATE $i = i + 1$
            \STATE exchange $A[i]$ with $A[j]$
        \ENDIF
    \ENDFOR
    \STATE exchange $A[i]$ with $A[r]$
\ENDPROCEDURE
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}

Customization

CSS

You can customize the appearance of the pseudocode by adding your own CSS rules. The default CSS classes used are:

• .ps-root
• .ps-algorithm
• .ps-algorithmic
• .ps-caption
• .ps-keyword
• .ps-procedure
• .ps-if
• .ps-for
• .ps-while
• .ps-repeat
• .ps-foreach
• .ps-state
• .ps-call
• .ps-funcname
• .ps-indent-{level}

JavaScript

To ensure MathJax expressions are rendered correctly, you may need to add the following JavaScript snippet to your MkDocs theme:

<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
    if (typeof MathJax !== 'undefined') {
        MathJax.typesetPromise();
    }
});
</script>
