npmTo Container
Overview
The npmTo container converts npm command-line code blocks into pnpm / yarn / deno / bun command-line code blocks, presenting them as a group of code blocks on the page.
Within the ::: npm-to container, you only need to write the npm command code block once.
Why do we need the npmTo container?
When I write documentation, I often need to provide commands for different environments like pnpm / yarn / npm. This requires multiple code blocks wrapped in the ::: code-tabs container, which is time-consuming and takes up a lot of space in the Markdown content, leading to a poor experience. That's why I created the ::: npm-to container to solve this problem.
Syntax
::: npm-to
``` sh
npm install -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plume
```
:::Just wrap the code block containing the npm command-line in the ::: npm-to container.
The npm-to container only supports a single code block and cannot contain other content
The code above will be converted internally to:
::: code-tabs
@tab pnpm
``` sh
pnpm add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plume
```
@tab yarn
``` sh
yarn add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plume
```
@tab npm
``` sh
npm install -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plume
```
:::The final output on the page will be:
npm install -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumepnpm add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumeyarn add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumeYou can also control the display order of the code blocks in the group, as shown below:
Input:
::: npm-to tabs="npm,yarn,pnpm,bun,deno"
``` sh
npm install -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plume
```
:::Output:
npm install -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumeyarn add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumepnpm add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumebun add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumedeno add -D vuepress vuepress-theme-plumeConfiguration
This feature is not enabled by default. You need to enable it in the theme configuration.
export default defineUserConfig({
theme: plumeTheme({
markdown: {
// npmTo: true, // Enable with default configuration
npmTo: {
tabs: ['npm', 'yarn', 'pnpm'], // Default display order of code blocks
}
},
})
})npm-to supports converting npm command lines to pnpm / yarn / deno / bun command lines. You can configure the tabs according to your needs.
Supported Command Lines
npmTo does not support all npm command lines. Here is the list of supported commands:
npm install/npm i(without a package name)npm install <pkg>/npm i <pkg>/npm add <pkg>npm run/npm run-scriptnpm initnpm createnpm uninstall/npm r/npm rm/npm remove/npm un/npm unlinknpm cinpx
Info
For unsupported command lines, npmTo will not process them and will only copy them to the other code blocks.
