Cherry Markdown Editor is a Javascript Markdown editor. It has the advantages such as out-of-the-box, lightweight and easy to extend. It can run in browser or server(with NodeJs).
Developer can call and instantiate Cherry Markdown Editor in a very simple way. The instantiated Cherry Markdown Editor supports most commonly used markdown syntax (such as title, TOC, flowchart, formula, etc.) by default.
When the syntax that Cherry Markdown editor support can not meet your needs, secondary development or function extention can be carried out quickly. At the same time, Cherry Markdown editor should be implemented by pure JavaScript, and should not rely on framework technology such as angular, vue and react. Framework only provide a container environment.

If you need to enable the functions of mermaid
drawing and table-to-chart, you need to add mermaid
and echarts
packages at the same time.
Currently, the plug-in version Cherry recommend is [email protected]
[email protected]
.
# Install mermaid, enable mermaid and drawing function
yarn add [email protected]
# Install echarts, turn on the table-to-chart function
yarn add [email protected]
<link href="cherry-editor.min.css" />
<div id="markdown-container"></div>
<script src="cherry-editor.min.js"></script>
<script>
new Cherry({
id: 'markdown-container',
value: '# welcome to cherry editor!',
});
</script>
import Cherry from 'cherry-markdown';
const cherryInstance = new Cherry({
id: 'markdown-container',
value: '# welcome to cherry editor!',
});
const { default: CherryEngine } = require('cherry-markdown/dist/cherry-markdown.engine.core.common');
const cherryEngineInstance = new CherryEngine();
const htmlContent = cherryEngineInstance.makeHtml('# welcome to cherry editor!');
Because the size of the mermaid library is very large, the cherry build product contains a core build package without built-in Mermaid. The core build can be imported in the following ways.
import Cherry from 'cherry-markdown/dist/cherry-markdown.core';
const cherryInstance = new Cherry({
id: 'markdown-container',
value: '# welcome to cherry editor!',
});
// Import Cherry engine core construction
// Engine configuration items are the same as Cherry configuration items, the following document content only introduces the Cherry core package
import CherryEngine from 'cherry-markdown/dist/cherry-markdown.engine.core';
const cherryEngineInstance = new CherryEngine();
const htmlContent = cherryEngineInstance.makeHtml('# welcome to cherry editor!')
// --> <h1>welcome to cherry editor!</h1>
The core build package does not contain mermaid dependency, should import related plug-ins manually.
import Cherry from 'cherry-markdown/dist/cherry-markdown.core';
import CherryMermaidPlugin from 'cherry-markdown/dist/addons/cherry-code-block-mermaid-plugin';
import mermaid from 'mermaid';
// Plug-in registration must be done before Cherry is instantiated
Cherry.usePlugin(CherryMermaidPlugin, {
mermaid, // pass in mermaid object
// mermaidAPI: mermaid.mermaidAPI, // Can also be passed in mermaid API
// At the same time, you can configure mermaid's behavior here, please refer to the official mermaid document
// theme: 'neutral',
// sequence: { useMaxWidth: false, showSequenceNumbers: true }
});
const cherryInstance = new Cherry({
id: 'markdown-container',
value: '# welcome to cherry editor!',
});
recommend Using Dynamic import, the following is an example of webpack Dynamic import.
import Cherry from 'cherry-markdown/dist/cherry-markdown.core';
const registerPlugin = async () => {
const [{ default: CherryMermaidPlugin }, mermaid] = await Promise.all([
import('cherry-markdown/src/addons/cherry-code-block-mermaid-plugin'),
import('mermaid'),
]);
Cherry.usePlugin(CherryMermaidPlugin, {
mermaid, // pass in mermaid object
});
};
registerPlugin().then(() => {
// Plug-in registration must be done before Cherry is instantiated
const cherryInstance = new Cherry({
id: 'markdown-container',
value: '# welcome to cherry editor!',
});
});
