# remark-stringify [![Build Status][build-badge]][build-status] [![Coverage Status][coverage-badge]][coverage-status] [![Chat][chat-badge]][chat]

[Compiler][] for [**unified**][unified].  Stringifies an
[**mdast**][mdast] syntax tree to markdown.  Used in the [**remark**
processor][processor].  Can be [extended][extend] to change how
markdown is compiled.

## Installation

[npm][]:

```bash
npm install remark-stringify
```

## Usage

```js
var unified = require('unified');
var parse = require('remark-parse');
var toc = require('remark-toc');
var stringify = require('remark-stringify');

process.stdin
    .pipe(unified())
    .use(markdown)
    .use(toc)
    .use(html)
    .pipe(process.stdout, {
        'bullet': '*',
        'fence': '~',
        'fences': true,
        'incrementListMarker': false
    });
```

## API

### `processor.use(stringify)`

Configure the `processor` to stringify [**mdast**][mdast] syntax trees
to markdown.

###### `options`

Options are passed later through [`processor.stringify()`][stringify],
[`processor.process()`][process], or [`processor.pipe()`][pipe].
The following settings are supported:

*   `gfm` (`boolean`, default: `true`):
    *   Escape pipes (`|`, for tables);
    *   Escape colons (`:`, for literal URLs)
    *   Escape tildes (`~`, for strike-through).
*   `commonmark` (`boolean`, default: `false`):
    *   Compile adjacent blockquotes separately;
    *   Escape more characters using slashes, instead of as entities.
*   `pedantic` (`boolean`, default: `false`):
    *   Escape underscores in words.
*   `entities` (`string` or `boolean`, default: `false`):

    *   `true` — Entities are generated for special HTML characters
        (`&` > `&`) and non-ASCII characters (`©` > `©`).
        If named entities are not (widely) supported, numbered character
        references are used (`’` > `’`);

    *   `'numbers'` — Numbered entities are generated (`&` > `&`)
        for special HTML characters and non-ASCII characters.

    *   `'escape'` — Special HTML characters are encoded (`&` >
        `&`, `’` > `’`), non-ASCII characters not (ö persists).

*   `setext` (`boolean`, default: `false`)
    — Compile headings, when possible, in Setext-style: using `=` for
    level one headings and `-` for level two headings.  Other heading
    levels are compiled as ATX (respecting `closeAtx`).
*   `closeAtx` (`boolean`, default: `false`)
    — Compile ATX headings with the same amount of closing hashes as
    opening hashes.
*   `looseTable` (`boolean`, default: `false`)
    — Create tables without fences (initial and final pipes).
*   `spacedTable` (`boolean`, default: `true`)
    — Create tables without spacing between pipes and content.
*   `fence` (`'~'` or ``'`'``, default: ``'`'``)
    — Fence marker to use for code blocks.
*   `fences` (`boolean`, default: `false`)
    — Stringify code blocks without language with fences.
*   `bullet` (`'-'`, `'*'`, or `'+'`, default: `'-'`)
    — Bullet marker to use for unordered list items.
*   `listItemIndent` (`'tab'`, `'mixed'` or `'1'`, default: `'tab'`)

    How to indent the content from list items:

    *   `'tab'`: use tab stops (4 spaces);
    *   `'1'`: use one space;
    *   `'mixed'`: use `1` for tight and `tab` for loose list items.

*   `incrementListMarker` (`boolean`, default: `true`)
    — Whether to increment ordered list item bullets.
*   `rule` (`'-'`, `'*'`, or `'_'`, default: `'*'`)
    — Marker to use for thematic breaks (horizontal rules).
*   `ruleRepetition` (`number`, default: `3`)
    — Number of markers to use for thematic breaks (horizontal rules).
    Should be `3` or more.
*   `ruleSpaces` (`boolean`, default `true`)
    — Whether to pad thematic break (horizontal rule) markers with
    spaces.
*   `strong` (`'_'` or `'*'`, default `'*'`)
    — Marker to use for importance.
*   `emphasis` (`'_'` or `'*'`, default `'_'`)
    — Marker to use for emphasis.

### `stringify.Compiler`

Access to the raw [compiler][], if you need it.

## Extending the Compiler

If this plug-in is used, it adds a [`Compiler`][compiler] constructor
to the `processor`.  Other plug-ins can change and add visitors on
the compiler’s prototype to change how markdown is stringified.

The below plug-in modifies a [visitor][] to add an extra blank line
before level two headings.

```js
function gap(processor) {
    var Compiler = processor.Compiler;
    var visitors = Compiler.prototype.visitors;
    var heading = visitors.heading;

    /* Add a visitor for `heading`s. */
    visitors.heading = function (node) {
        return (node.depth === 2 ? '\n' : '') + heading.apply(this, arguments);
    };
}

module.exports = gap;
```

### `Compiler#visitors`

An object mapping [node][] types to [`visitor`][visitor]s.

### `function visitor(node[, parent])`

Stringify `node`.

###### Parameters

*   `node` ([`Node`][node]) — Node to compile;
*   `parent` ([`Node`][node], optional) — Parent of `node`.

###### Returns

`string`, the compiled given `node`.
