> Parse README.md files and turn LaTeX equations into SVGs.

## Installation

``` bash
$ npm install insert-equations
```

## Usage

``` javascript
var insertEquations = require( 'insert-equations' );
```

#### insertEquations( dir, clbk )

Parses the `README.md` file in the supplied directory and inserts SVG images for all `` tags. The `label`, `align`, `raw` and `alt` attributes of the equation tag will be used. Upon creating the SVG images, the `README.md` file will be overwritten with the newly generated markup.

``` javascript
insertEquations( 'mydirectory', done )

function done( err ) {
if ( err ) {
throw err;
}
console.log( 'README.md file successfully processed.' );
} // end FUNCTION done()
```

## Notes

* As a concrete example

``` html


```

will be transformed to

``` html


Gamma function for positive integers.




```

* The supplied directory has to be a git project with a remote branch on GitHub. Otherwise, `insertEquations` will throw an error.
* Beware: `insertEquations` automatically creates a commit for the newly created files and changes to `README.md`.

## Examples

``` javascript
var child_process = require( 'child_process' );
var fs = require( 'fs-extra' );
var path = require( 'path' );
var insertEquations = require( 'insert-equations' );

var fPath = path.resolve( __dirname, './fixtures' );
var inputPath = path.join( fPath, '_README.md' );
var outputPath = path.join( fPath, 'README.md' );

fs.copySync( inputPath, outputPath );

child_process.execSync( 'rm -rf .git', { cwd: fPath } );
child_process.execSync( 'git init', { cwd: fPath } );
child_process.execSync( 'git remote add origin https://github.com/Planeshifter/insert-equations-examples.git', { cwd: fPath } );

insertEquations( fPath, done );

function done( err ) {
if ( err ) {
throw err;
}
console.log( 'README.md file successfully processed.' );
} // end FUNCTION done()
```

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

``` bash
$ node ./examples/index.js
```

---
## CLI

### Installation

To use the module as a general utility, install the module globally

``` bash
$ npm install -g insert-equations
```

### Usage

``` bash

Usage: insert-equations [options] [directory]

Options:

-h, --help Print this message.
-V, --version Print the package version.

```

## Notes

* If no `directory` is supplied, the current working directory will be used to look for a `README.md` file.

### Examples

``` bash
$ insert-equations examples/fixtures
```

---
## Tests

### Unit

This repository uses [tape][tape] for unit tests. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

``` bash
$ make test
```

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

### Test Coverage

This repository uses [Istanbul][istanbul] as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

``` bash
$ make test-cov
```

Istanbul creates a `./reports/coverage` directory. To access an HTML version of the report,

``` bash
$ make view-cov
```

### Browser Support

This repository uses [Testling][testling] for browser testing. To run the tests in a (headless) local web browser, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

``` bash
$ make test-browsers
```

To view the tests in a local web browser,

``` bash
$ make view-browser-tests
```
