solid-jsx

What?

Use mdx or xdm with solid-js.

This module is ESM only, due to mdx and xdm being ESM only.

Adding

"type": "module"

in package.json is one option.

Installation

pnpm install --save-dev solid-jsx

Usage

This library can be used alongside version 2 of @mdx-js, or xdm by setting the jsxImportSource property to 'solid-jsx'.

You can use their official integration with various bundlers, and frameworks, below is an @mdx-js configuration sample for Vite, which supports rollup plugins.

import{defineConfig}from'vite';importsolidfrom'vite-plugin-solid';importmdxfrom'@mdx-js/rollup';importremarkGfmfrom'remark-gfm';exportdefaultdefineConfig({plugins: [mdx({jsxImportSource: 'solid-jsx',remarkPlugins: [remarkGfm]}),solid()],build: {target: 'esnext',},});

Draw math with xdm and mathjax

importsolidfrom'vite-plugin-solid';importxdmfrom'xdm/rollup.js';importremarkMathfrom'remark-math';importunofrom'unocss/vite';importremarkMathfrom'remark-math';importrehypeMathJaxSVGfrom'rehype-mathjax/svg.js';exportdefaultdefineConfig({plugins: [xdm({jsxImportSource: 'solid-jsx',remarkPlugins: [remarkMath],rehypePlugins: [rehypeMathJaxSVG],}),solid(),uno(),],});

More information -> Integrations.

All markdown tags and custom components replacement are supported.

However, since the code goes through the @mdx-js/xdm compiler and not through the solid-js compiler, inline components will not be reactive.

exportconstCounter=()=>{const[count,setCount]=createSignal(0);return(<><buttononClick={()=>setCount(count()+1)}>Increment</button><p>{count}</p></>);};<Counter/>;

This limitation is minor, since writing components inline is just one option, and by far the worst one of them all, with limited syntax and language support.

You can always import directly TypeScript/JavaScript components inside .mdx

importCounterfrom'./Counter';
<Counter />

or pass the component to markdown directly

Hello <Counter />

importMessagefrom'./message.mdx';<Messagecomponents={{ Counter }}/>;

To have dynamic tags, use solid-js Dynamic component.

constoptions: Record<string,Component>={red: RedThing,green: GreenThing,blue: BlueThing,};<Messagecomponents={{h2: 'h6',h1: ()=><div>Test</div>,Planet: ()=><Dynamiccomponent={options[selected()]}/>,}}/>;

When nesting MDX files, importing components at the top or repeating the same set of those as parameters can become cumbersome.
You can use MDXProvider to avoid this:

import{MDXProvider}from'solid-jsx';render(()=>(<MDXProvidercomponents={{ Tweet }}><App/><MDXProvider>
)
);

The package also provides Typescript support, the types can be referenced as "solid-jsx/types". In tsconfig.json:

{
"compilerOptions": {
"types": ["vite/client", "solid-jsx/types"]
}
}
