MDX 和 React
Using JSX in Markdown
Docusaurus has built-in support for MDX v1, which allows you to write JSX within your Markdown files and render them as React components.
While Docusaurus parses both .md
and .mdx
files using MDX, some of the syntaxes are treated slightly differently by third-party tools. For the most accurate parsing and better editor support, we recommend using the .mdx
extension for files containing MDX syntax.
Check out the MDX docs to see what other fancy stuff you can do with MDX.
Exporting components
To define any custom component within an MDX file, you have to export it: only paragraphs that start with export
will be parsed as components instead of prose.
export const Highlight = ({children, color}) => (
<span
style={{
backgroundColor: color,
borderRadius: '2px',
color: '#fff',
padding: '0.2rem',
}}>
{children}
</span>
);
<Highlight color="#25c2a0">Docusaurus green</Highlight> and <Highlight color="#1877F2">Facebook blue</Highlight> are my favorite colors.
I can write **Markdown** alongside my _JSX_!
Notice how it renders both the markup from your React component and the Markdown syntax:
I can write Markdown alongside my JSX!
由于所有文档文件都是使用MDX解析的,任何看起来像HTML的内容实际上是JSX语法 。 因此,如果您需要对组件进行内联样式处理,请遵循JSX风格,并提供样式对象。
/* Instead of this: */
<span style="background-color: red">Foo</span>
/* Use this: */
<span style={{backgroundColor: 'red'}}>Foo</span>
This behavior is different from Docusaurus 1. See also Migrating from v1 to v2.
In addition, MDX is not 100% compatible with CommonMark. Use the MDX playground to ensure that your syntax is valid MDX.
Importing components
您还可以导入其他文件中定义的自己的组件或通过npm安装的第三方组件。
<!-- Docusaurus theme component -->
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';
<!-- External component -->
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
<!-- Custom component -->
import BrowserWindow from '@site/src/components/BrowserWindow';
The @site
alias points to your website's directory, usually where the docusaurus.config.js
file is. Using an alias instead of relative paths ('../../src/components/BrowserWindow'
) saves you from updating import paths when moving files around, or when versioning docs and translating.
While declaring components within Markdown is very convenient for simple cases, it becomes hard to maintain because of limited editor support, risks of parsing errors, and low reusability. Use a separate .js
file when your component involves complex JS logic:
import React from 'react';
export default function Highlight({children, color}) {
return (
<span
style={{
backgroundColor: color,
borderRadius: '2px',
color: '#fff',
padding: '0.2rem',
}}>
{children}
</span>
);
}
import Highlight from '@site/src/components/Highlight';
<Highlight color="#25c2a0">Docusaurus green</Highlight>
If you use the same component across a lot of files, you don't need to import it everywhere—consider adding it to the global scope. See below
MDX component scope
Apart from importing a component and exporting a component, a third way to use a component in MDX is to register it to the global scope, which will make it automatically available in every MDX file, without any import statements.
For example, given this MDX file:
- a
- list!
And some <Highlight>custom markup</Highlight>...
It will be compiled to a React component containing ul
, li
, p
, and Highlight
elements. Highlight
is not a native html element: you need to provide your own React component implementation for it.
In Docusaurus, the MDX component scope is provided by the @theme/MDXComponents
file. It's not a React component, per se, unlike most other exports under the @theme/
alias: it is a record from tag names like Highlight
to their React component implementations.
If you swizzle this component, you will find all tags that have been implemented, and you can further customize our implementation by swizzling the respective sub-component, like @theme/MDXComponents/Code
(which is used to render Markdown code blocks).
If you want to register extra tag names (like the <Highlight>
tag above), you should consider wrapping @theme/MDXComponents
, so you don't have to maintain all the existing mappings. Since the swizzle CLI doesn't allow wrapping non-component files yet, you should manually create the wrapper:
import React from 'react';
// Import the original mapper
import MDXComponents from '@theme-original/MDXComponents';
import Highlight from '@site/src/components/Highlight';
export default {
// Re-use the default mapping
...MDXComponents,
// Map the "<Highlight>" tag to our Highlight component
// `Highlight` will receive all props that were passed to `<Highlight>` in MDX
Highlight,
};
And now, you can freely use <Highlight>
in every page, without writing the import statement:
I can conveniently use <Highlight color="#25c2a0">Docusaurus green</Highlight> everywhere!
I can conveniently use Docusaurus green everywhere!
We use upper-case tag names like Highlight
on purpose.
From MDX v2+ onward (Docusaurus v3+), lower-case tag names are always rendered as native html elements, and will not use any component mapping you provide.
This feature is powered by a wrapper provider. If you are importing Markdown in a React page, you have to supply this provider yourself through the MDXContent
theme component.
import React from 'react';
import FeatureDisplay from './_featureDisplay.mdx';
import MDXContent from '@theme/MDXContent';
export default function LandingPage() {
return (
<div>
<MDXContent>
<FeatureDisplay />
</MDXContent>
</div>
);
}
If you don't wrap your imported MDX with MDXContent
, the global scope will not be available.
Markdown and JSX interoperability
Docusaurus v2 is using MDX v1, which has a lot of known cases where the content fails to be correctly parsed as Markdown. Use the MDX playground to ensure that your syntax is valid MDX.
Samples of parsing failures
A paragraph starting with a JSX tag will be seen entirely as a JSX string:
- Problem
- Workaround
<span style={{color: 'red'}}>Highlighted text</span> but afterwards _Markdown_ **doesn't work**
Highlighted text but afterwards Markdown doesn't work
Use JSX for the rest of the line, or prefix the line with some plain text:
<span style={{color: 'red'}}>Use JSX for the paragraph</span> to stop <i>worrying about</i> <b>Markdown</b>
​<span style={{color: 'red'}}>← This is a zero-width space</span> and afterwards <i>Markdown</i> <b>works</b>
Use JSX for the paragraph to stop worrying about Markdown
← This is a zero-width space and afterwards Markdown works
Markdown within a JSX tag never works:
- Problem
- Workaround
<span style={{color: 'red'}}>**Bold doesn't work**</span>
Use JSX within JSX tag, or move the Markdown to the outer layer:
<span style={{color: 'red'}}><b>Bold now works</b></span>
**<span style={{color: 'red'}}>Bold now works</span>**
Bold now works
Text immediately below a JSX tag will be seen as JSX text:
- Problem
- Workaround
<div style={{color: 'red'}}>
**Bold still doesn't work**
</div>
Bold still doesn't work
Add an empty new line:
<div style={{color: 'red'}}>
**Bold now works**
</div>
Bold now works
Markdown text indented by four spaces will be seen as a code block:
- Problem
- Workaround
<div style={{color: 'red'}}>
You may think I'm just some text...
</div>
You may think I'm just some text...
Don't indent:
<div style={{color: 'red'}}>
Now I'm actually just text
</div>
Now I'm actually just text
Importing code snippets
You can not only import a file containing a component definition, but also import any code file as raw text, and then insert it in a code block, thanks to Webpack raw-loader. In order to use raw-loader
, you first need to install it in your project:
- npm
- Yarn
- pnpm
npm install --save raw-loader
yarn add raw-loader
pnpm add raw-loader
Now you can import code snippets from another file as it is:
import CodeBlock from '@theme/CodeBlock';
import MyComponentSource from '!!raw-loader!./myComponent';
<CodeBlock language="jsx">{MyComponentSource}</CodeBlock>
/**
* Copyright (c) Facebook, Inc. and its affiliates.
*
* This source code is licensed under the MIT license found in the
* LICENSE file in the root directory of this source tree.
*/
import React, {useState} from 'react';
export default function MyComponent() {
const [bool, setBool] = useState(false);
return (
<div>
<p>MyComponent rendered !</p>
<p>bool={bool ? 'true' : 'false'}</p>
<p>
<button onClick={() => setBool((b) => !b)}>toggle bool</button>
</p>
</div>
);
}
See using code blocks in JSX for more details of the <CodeBlock>
component.
You have to use <CodeBlock>
rather than the Markdown triple-backtick ```
, because the latter will ship out any of its content as-is, but you want to interpolate the imported text here.
This feature is experimental and might be subject to breaking API changes in the future.
Importing Markdown
You can use Markdown files as components and import them elsewhere, either in Markdown files or in React pages.
By convention, using the _
filename prefix will not create any doc page and means the Markdown file is a "partial", to be imported by other files.
<span>Hello {props.name}</span>
This is text some content from `_markdown-partial-example.mdx`.
import PartialExample from './_markdown-partial-example.mdx';
<PartialExample name="Sebastien" />
This is text some content from _markdown-partial-example.md
.
This way, you can reuse content among multiple pages and avoid duplicating materials.
Currently, the table of contents does not contain the imported Markdown headings. This is a technical limitation that we are trying to solve (issue).
Available exports
Within the MDX page, the following variables are available as globals:
frontMatter
: the front matter as a record of string keys and values;toc
: the table of contents, as a tree of headings. See also Inline TOC for a more concrete use-case.contentTitle
: the Markdown title, which is the firsth1
heading in the Markdown text. It'sundefined
if there isn't one (e.g. title specified in the front matter).
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';
import CodeBlock from '@theme/CodeBlock';
The table of contents for this page, serialized:
<CodeBlock className="language-json">{JSON.stringify(toc, null, 2)}</CodeBlock>
The front matter of this page:
<ul>
{Object.entries(frontMatter).map(([key, value]) => <li key={key}><b>{key}</b>: {value}</li>)}
</ul>
<p>The title of this page is: <b>{contentTitle}</b></p>
