## What is this?

This package contains two extensions that add support for MDX ESM syntax in
markdown to [mdast][].
These extensions plug into
[`mdast-util-from-markdown`][mdast-util-from-markdown] (to support parsing
ESM in markdown into a syntax tree) and
[`mdast-util-to-markdown`][mdast-util-to-markdown] (to support serializing
ESM in syntax trees to markdown).

## When to use this

You can use these extensions when you are working with
`mdast-util-from-markdown` and `mdast-util-to-markdown` already.

When working with `mdast-util-from-markdown`, you must combine this package
with [`micromark-extension-mdxjs-esm`][extension].

When you are working with syntax trees and want all of MDX, use
[`mdast-util-mdx`][mdast-util-mdx] instead.

All these packages are used in [`remark-mdx`][remark-mdx], which
focusses on making it easier to transform content by abstracting these
internals away.

## Install

This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:

```sh
npm install mdast-util-mdxjs-esm
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import {mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown, mdxjsEsmToMarkdown} from 'https://esm.sh/mdast-util-mdxjs-esm@2'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html

import {mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown, mdxjsEsmToMarkdown} from 'https://esm.sh/mdast-util-mdxjs-esm@2?bundle'

```

## Use

Say our document `example.mdx` contains:

```mdx
import a from 'b'
export const c = ''

d
```

…and our module `example.js` looks as follows:

```js
import fs from 'node:fs/promises'
import * as acorn from 'acorn'
import {fromMarkdown} from 'mdast-util-from-markdown'
import {toMarkdown} from 'mdast-util-to-markdown'
import {mdxjsEsm} from 'micromark-extension-mdxjs-esm'
import {mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown, mdxjsEsmToMarkdown} from 'mdast-util-mdxjs-esm'

const doc = await fs.readFile('example.mdx')

const tree = fromMarkdown(doc, {
extensions: [mdxjsEsm({acorn, addResult: true})],
mdastExtensions: [mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown()]
})

console.log(tree)

const out = toMarkdown(tree, {extensions: [mdxjsEsmToMarkdown()]})

console.log(out)
```

…now running `node example.js` yields (positional info removed for brevity):

```js
{
type: 'root',
children: [
{
type: 'mdxjsEsm',
value: "import a from 'b'\nexport const c = ''",
data: {
estree: {
type: 'Program',
body: [
{
type: 'ImportDeclaration',
specifiers: [
{
type: 'ImportDefaultSpecifier',
local: {type: 'Identifier', name: 'a'}
}
],
source: {type: 'Literal', value: 'b', raw: "'b'"}
},
{
type: 'ExportNamedDeclaration',
declaration: {
type: 'VariableDeclaration',
declarations: [
{
type: 'VariableDeclarator',
id: {type: 'Identifier', name: 'c'},
init: {type: 'Literal', value: '', raw: "''"}
}
],
kind: 'const'
},
specifiers: [],
source: null
}
],
sourceType: 'module'
}
}
},
{type: 'paragraph', children: [{type: 'text', value: 'd'}]}
]
}
```

```markdown
import a from 'b'
export const c = ''

d
```

## API

This package exports the identifiers
[`mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown`][api-mdxjs-esm-from-markdown] and
[`mdxjsEsmToMarkdown`][api-mdxjs-esm-to-markdown].
There is no default export.

### `mdxjsEsmFromMarkdown()`

Create an extension for [`mdast-util-from-markdown`][mdast-util-from-markdown]
to enable MDX.js ESM in markdown.

When using the [micromark syntax extension][extension] with `addResult`, nodes
will have a `data.estree` field set to an ESTree [`Program`][program] node.

###### Returns

Extension for `mdast-util-from-markdown` to enable MDX.js ESM
([`FromMarkdownExtension`][from-markdown-extension]).

### `mdxjsEsmToMarkdown()`

Create an extension for [`mdast-util-to-markdown`][mdast-util-to-markdown]
to enable MDX.js ESM in markdown.

###### Returns

Extension for `mdast-util-to-markdown` to enable MDX.js ESM
([`ToMarkdownExtension`][to-markdown-extension]).

### `MdxjsEsm`

MDX ESM (import/export) node (TypeScript type).

###### Type

```ts
import type {Program} from 'estree-jsx'
import type {Data, Literal} from 'mdast'

interface MdxjsEsm extends Literal {
type: 'mdxjsEsm'
data?: MdxjsEsmData | undefined
}

export interface MdxjsEsmData extends Data {
estree?: Program | null | undefined
}
```

### `MdxjsEsmHast`

Same as [`MdxjsEsm`][api-mdxjs-esm], but registered with `@types/hast`
(TypeScript type).

###### Type

```ts
import type {Program} from 'estree-jsx'
import type {Data, Literal} from 'hast'

interface MdxjsEsmHast extends Literal {
type: 'mdxjsEsm'
data?: MdxjsEsmHastData | undefined
}

export interface MdxjsEsmHastData extends Data {
estree?: Program | null | undefined
}
```

## HTML

MDX ESM has no representation in HTML.
Though, when you are dealing with MDX, you will likely go *through* hast.
You can enable passing MDX ESM through to hast by configuring
[`mdast-util-to-hast`][mdast-util-to-hast] with `passThrough: ['mdxjsEsm']`.

## Syntax

See [Syntax in `micromark-extension-mdxjs-esm`][syntax].

## Syntax tree

The following interfaces are added to **[mdast][]** by this utility.

### Nodes

#### `MdxjsEsm`

```idl
interface MdxjsEsm <: Literal {
type: 'mdxjsEsm'
}
```

**MdxjsEsm** (**[Literal][dfn-literal]**) represents ESM import/exports
embedded in MDX.
It can be used where **[flow][dfn-flow-content]** content is expected.
Its content is represented by its `value` field.

For example, the following Markdown:

```markdown
import a from 'b'
```

Yields:

```js
{
type: 'mdxjsEsm',
value: 'import a from \'b\''
}
```

### Content model

#### `FlowContent` (MDX.js ESM)

```idl
type FlowContentMdxjsEsm = MdxjsEsm | FlowContent
```

Note that when ESM is present, it can only exist as top-level content: if it has
a *[parent][dfn-parent]*, that parent must be **[Root][dfn-root]**.

## Types

This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports the additional types [`MdxjsEsm`][api-mdxjs-esm] and
[`MdxjsEsmHast`][api-mdxjs-esm-hast].

It also registers the node type with `@types/mdast` and `@types/hast`.
If you’re working with the syntax tree, make sure to import this utility
somewhere in your types, as that registers the new node types in the tree.

```js
/**
* @typedef {import('mdast-util-mdxjs-esm')}
*/

import {visit} from 'unist-util-visit'

/** @type {import('mdast').Root} */
const tree = getMdastNodeSomeHow()

visit(tree, function (node) {
// `node` can now be an ESM node.
})
```

## Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line, `mdast-util-mdxjs-esm@^2`,
compatible with Node.js 16.

This utility works with `mdast-util-from-markdown` version 2+ and
`mdast-util-to-markdown` version 2+.
