Markdown Variables
A transformation is exposed to both Markdown and MDX files which supports processing variables in a Django/Jekyll-style way. The variables available are globally scoped and configured within remark-variables.js
.
For example:
JavaScript SDK: 8.7.0
In this case, we expose packages
as an accessor in the package registry, which is why there's a packages.version
function available. Additionally, we expose a default context variable of page
, which contains the frontmatter of the given markdown node. For example, {{@inject page.title }}
.
When a variable call is invalid (or errors), or doesn't match something in the known scope, it will produce an error message in the output in development mode. It will force the build to fail in production.
To escape an expression add a leading \
to the @inject
.
The packages
helper is an instance of PackageRegistry
and exposes several methods.
Returns the latest version of the given package.
{{@inject packages.version("sentry.javascript.browser") }}
You may also optionally specify a fallback for if the package isn't found (or there's an upstream error):
{{@inject packages.version("sentry.javascript.browser", "1.0.0") }}
Returns the checksum of a given file in a package.
{{@inject packages.checksum("sentry.javascript.browser", "bundle.min.js", "sha384") }}
