mdpdfmake's Introduction

mdpdfmake (Convert Markdown to pdfmake easily)

Finding a converter that can convert Markdown to PDFMake can be difficult. This package aims to solve that problem by providing a simple function that takes Markdown input (string) and converts it into a format that can be used with the PDFMake library.

This allows you to easily create PDF documents from your Markdown files.

Features

  • Headers: Supports all levels of Markdown headers.
  • Lists: Supports both ordered and unordered lists.
  • Links: Converts Markdown links into clickable links in the PDF.
  • Images: Converts Markdown image syntax into images in the PDF.
  • Text Styling: Supports bold, italic, strikethrough, and underline text styles.
  • Complex Markdown: Supports complex Markdown syntax such as nested bold/italic text, and nested blockquote paragraphs.

Installation

Simply use npm to install this package

npm install mdpdfmake

Usage

To use this converter, simply import the module and call the convert function with your Markdown text as the argument. The function will return a PDFMake document definition that you can use to create your PDF.

import { mdpdfmake } from "mdpdfmake";

const options = {
  headingFontSizes: [24, 22, 20],
  headingUnderline: true,
};

const markdown = `# Heading
This is a paragraph with **bold** text and *italic* text.

- List Item 1
- List Item 2

> Blockquote

mdpdfmake(markdown, options).then((docDefinition) => {
  // Use docDefinition with a PDFMake instance to generate a PDF
});

Note: The response from the convert function is a Promise, so you will need to use async/await or .then() to get the result.
