## ESM and Node Version Support

This package is ESM only and tested on the current lts version and its previous. Please don't open issues for questions regarding CommonJS / ESM or previous Nodejs versions. To learn more about using ESM please read this from `sindresorhus`: https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c

## Getting Started

```bash
> npm install writr
```

Then you can use it like this:

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';

const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);

const html = await writr.render(); //

Hello World 🙂

This is a test.


```
Its just that simple. Want to add some options? No problem.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
const options = {
emoji: false
}
const html = await writr.render(options); //

Hello World ::-):

This is a test.


```

An example passing in the options also via the constructor:

```javascript
import { Writr, WritrOptions } from 'writr';
const writrOptions = {
renderOptions: {
emoji: true,
toc: true,
slug: true,
highlight: true,
gfm: true,
math: true,
mdx: true,
caching: true,
}
};
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`, writrOptions);
const html = await writr.render(options); //

Hello World ::-):

This is a test.


```

## API

### `new Writr(arg?: string | WritrOptions, options?: WritrOptions)`

By default the constructor takes in a markdown `string` or `WritrOptions` in the first parameter. You can also send in nothing and set the markdown via `.content` property. If you want to pass in your markdown and options you can easily do this with `new Writr('## Your Markdown Here', { ...options here})`. You can access the `WritrOptions` from the instance of Writr. Here is an example of WritrOptions.

```javascript
import { Writr, WritrOptions } from 'writr';
const writrOptions = {
renderOptions: {
emoji: true,
toc: true,
slug: true,
highlight: true,
gfm: true,
math: true,
mdx: true,
caching: true,
}
};
const writr = new Writr(writrOptions);
```

### `.content`

Setting the markdown content for the instance of Writr. This can be set via the constructor or directly on the instance and can even handle `frontmatter`.

```javascript

import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr();
writr.content = `---
title: Hello World
---
# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`;
```

### `.options`

Accessing the default options for this instance of Writr.

### `.cache`

Accessing the cache for this instance of Writr. By default this is an in memory cache and is enabled by default. You can disable this by setting `caching: false` in the `RenderOptions` of the `WritrOptions` or when calling render passing the `RenderOptions` like here:

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
const options = {
caching: false
}
const html = await writr.render(options); //

Hello World ::-):

This is a test.


```

If you would like to use a specific storage adapter from https://keyv.org you can pass in the adapter like so:

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
import Keyv from '@keyv/redis';
const keyvRedis = new Keyv('redis://user:pass@localhost:6379');
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
writr.cache.setStorageAdapter(keyvRedis);
```

### `.engine`

Accessing the underlying engine for this instance of Writr. This is a `Processor` fro the unified `.use()` function. You can use this to add additional plugins to the engine.

### `.render(options?: RenderOptions): Promise`

Rendering markdown to HTML. the options are based on RenderOptions. Which you can access from the Writr instance.

```javascript
import { Writr, RenderOptions } from 'writr';

## `RenderOptions`

```js
type RenderOptions = {
emoji?: boolean; // Emoji support (default: true)
toc?: boolean; // Table of contents generation (default: true)
slug?: boolean; // Slug generation (default: true)
highlight?: boolean; // Code highlighting (default: true)
gfm?: boolean; // Github flavor markdown (default: true)
math?: boolean; // Math support (default: true)
mdx?: boolean; // MDX support (default: true)
caching?: boolean; // Caching (default: true)
};
```

### `.renderSync(options?: RenderOptions): string`

Rendering markdown to HTML synchronously. the options are based on RenderOptions. Which you can access from the Writr instance. The parameters are the same as the `.render()` function.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
const html = writr.renderSync(); //

Hello World 🙂

This is a test.


```

### '.renderReact(options?: RenderOptions, reactOptions?: HTMLReactParserOptions): Promise'

Rendering markdown to React. The options are based on RenderOptions and now HTMLReactParserOptions from `html-react-parser`.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
const reactElement = await writr.renderReact(); // Will return a React.JSX.Element
```

### '.renderReactSync( options?: RenderOptions, reactOptions?: HTMLReactParserOptions): React.JSX.Element'

Rendering markdown to React. The options are based on RenderOptions and now HTMLReactParserOptions from `html-react-parser`.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
const reactElement = writr.renderReactSync(); // Will return a React.JSX.Element
```

### `.loadFromFile(filePath: string): Promise`

Load your markdown content from a file path.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr();
await writr.loadFromFile('path/to/file.md');
```

### `.loadFromFileSync(filePath: string): void`

Load your markdown content from a file path synchronously.

### `.saveToFile(filePath: string): Promise`

Save your markdown and frontmatter (if included) content to a file path.

```javascript
import { Writr } from 'writr';
const writr = new Writr(`# Hello World ::-):\n\n This is a test.`);
await writr.saveToFile('path/to/file.md');
```

### `.saveToFileSync(filePath: string): void`

Save your markdown and frontmatter (if included) content to a file path synchronously.
