Add classes, identifiers and attributes to your markdown with {} curly brackets, similar to pandoc's header attributes

markdown-it-attrs

Add classes, identifiers and attributes to your markdown with {.class #identifier attr=value attr2="spaced value"} curly brackets, similar to pandoc's header attributes.

Example input:

# header {.style-me}
paragraph {data-toggle=modal}

Output:

<h1 class="style-me">header</h1>
<p data-toggle="modal">paragraph</p>

Works with inline elements too:

paragraph *style me*{.red} more text

Output:

<p>paragraph <em class="red">style me</em> more text</p>

Note: Plugin does not validate any input, so you should validate the attributes in your html output if security is a concern.

Ambiguity

When class can be applied to both inline or block element, inline element will take precedence:

- list item **bold**{.red}

Output:

<ul>
<li>list item <strong class="red">bold</strong></li>
<ul>

If you need the class to apply to the list item instead:

- list item **bold**
{.red}

Output:

<ul>
<li class="red">list item <strong>bold</strong>
</li>
</ul>

If you need finer control, look into decorate.

Install

$ npm install --save markdown-it-attrs

Usage

var md = require('markdown-it')();
var markdownItAttrs = require('markdown-it-attrs');

md.use(markdownItAttrs);

var src = '# header {.green #id}\nsome text {with=attrs and="attrs with space"}';

console.log(res);
