Version Version GithubStars

Insert a mindmap into your Hexo blog using markmap.

Install

Section titled “Install”
Terminal window
pnpm add hexo-markmap -D

Usage

Section titled “Usage”
{% markmap %}
---
markmap:
  colorFreezeLevel: 2
---
# Markdown
# Syntax
{% endmarkmap %}

Inline Options

Section titled “Inline Options”

You can customize each mindmap individually in the markmap tag ({% markmap %} ... {% endmarkmap %}).

Frontmatter Options

Section titled “Frontmatter Options”

Just like you use frontmatter in your Markdown files in Hexo, you can use frontmatter in the markmap tag to customize your mindmap!

All frontmatter options are optional.

  • id : Used to define the ID of the markmap-wrap element.

  • markmap : Correspond to the IMarkmapJSONOptions in the markmap project. For more details, please refer to jsonOptions.

Tag Options

Section titled “Tag Options”

You can also specify the height of the mindmap directly in the tag. By default, it will be calculated based on the content.

{% markmap 300px %}
# Markdown
# Syntax
{% endmarkmap %}

Config

Section titled “Config”

Add your options to config.yml.

  • Directoryhexo-project
    • config.yml
    • Directorysource
      • Directory_posts/
        • …

Convention over configuration, if you don’t need any of the following features, then you don’t need to add these configs.

By default, it works well. Each option has a default value.

Default options

Section titled “Default options”
hexo_markmap:
  darkThemeCssSelector: '.dark'
  CDN: 'fastly'
  • darkThemeCssSelector : Used to specify the CSS selector for the dark theme.
  • CDN : Used to specify the CDN for Markmap. The supported values are fastly, jsdelivr, unpkg, and custom.
    • If set to custom, the customCDN value will be used as the CDN prefix.
  • customCDN : Defines a custom CDN URL for Markmap. This must be a valid URL.
  • globalOptions : Used to define global options for all mindmaps.

Upgrade to hexo-markmap v2

Section titled “Upgrade to hexo-markmap v2”

hexo-markmap@2 is a completely refactored version by @coderxi1 and @maxchang3. This version upgrades to the latest Markmap and introduces more customization options, including:

  • Customization within a single Markmap tag using Frontmatter:
    • CSS styles (custom height, width, responsive layout, etc.)
    • Markmap’s JSON Options
  • Automatic CDN URL generation using Markmap’s built-in URL Builder
  • Automatic generation of corresponding CDN tags based on syntax
  • Support for dark mode and fullscreen button
  • Refactored in TypeScript with test coverage

Note that some implementation details differ from hexo-markmap@1. If you do not require these new features, you may continue using hexo-markmap@1.

To upgrade to hexo-markmap@2, follow these steps:

  1. Install hexo-markmap@2 using your preferred package manager:

    Terminal window
    pnpm add hexo-markmap@2 -D

  2. Modify your config.yml as needed:

    • The following configuration options are no longer supported:

      hexo_markmap:
        pjax: false
        katex: false
        prism: false
        lockView: false
        fixSVGAttrNaN: false
      • The new version no longer supports pjax compatibility;
      • KaTeX and Prism.js are now automatically detected and generate corresponding CDN tags;
      • By setting both pan and zoom in the markmap frontmatter to false, you can achieve the same effect as lockView.

    • CDN configuration logic has also changed:

      hexo_markmap:
        - userCDN:
            d3_js: https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/npm/d3@6
            markmap_view_js: https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/npm/markmap-view@0.2.7
            katex_css: https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.12.0/dist/katex.min.css
            prism_css: https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/npm/prismjs@1.25.0/themes/prism.css
        CDN: 'custom'
        customCDN: 'https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/npm/'
      • The new CDN setting supports fastly, jsdelivr, unpkg, and a custom option;
      • If you choose custom, the customCDN value will be used as the CDN prefix.

    • Additionally, the previous depth parameter for setting fold levels has been removed. Instead, you can use the initialExpandLevel option in Frontmatter.

  3. Update your markmap tags in your Markdown files:

    • The markmap tag now supports frontmatter options. You can specify the options directly in the tag, like this:

      {% markmap %}
      ---
      markmap:
        colorFreezeLevel: 2
      ---
      # Markdown
      # Syntax
      {% endmarkmap %}

    • You can still customize the height of the mindmap directly in the tag, by default it will be calculated based on the content:

       {% markmap 300px %}
       {% markmap %}
      # Markdown
      # Syntax
      {% endmarkmap %}

  4. Finally, regenerate your blog.
