# Auto-render extension
|
|
|
|
This is an extension to automatically render all of the math inside of text. It
|
|
searches all of the text nodes in a given element for the given delimiters, and
|
|
renders the math in place.
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
|
|
This extension isn't part of KaTeX proper, so the script should be separately
|
|
included in the page:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/KaTeX/0.8.1/contrib/auto-render.min.js" integrity="sha384-RkgGHBDdR8eyBOoWeZ/vpGg1cOvSAJRflCUDACusAAIVwkwPrOUYykglPeqWakZu" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, call the exposed `renderMathInElement` function in a script tag
|
|
before the close body tag:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<body>
|
|
...
|
|
<script>
|
|
renderMathInElement(document.body);
|
|
</script>
|
|
</body>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [index.html](index.html) for an example.
|
|
(To run this example from a clone of the repository, run `make serve`
|
|
in the root KaTeX directory, and then visit
|
|
http://0.0.0.0:7936/contrib/auto-render/index.html
|
|
with your web browser.)
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to have all your setup inside the html `<head>`,
|
|
you can use the following script there
|
|
(instead of the one above at the end of the `<body>`):
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<head>
|
|
...
|
|
<script>
|
|
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
|
|
renderMathInElement(document.body);
|
|
});
|
|
</script>
|
|
...
|
|
</head>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### API
|
|
|
|
This extension exposes a single function, `window.renderMathInElement`, with
|
|
the following API:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
function renderMathInElement(elem, options)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`elem` is an HTML DOM element. The function will recursively search for text
|
|
nodes inside this element and render the math in them.
|
|
|
|
`options` is an optional object argument that can have the same keys as [the
|
|
object passed to `katex.render`](https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX/#rendering-options),
|
|
in addition to two auto-render-specific keys:
|
|
|
|
- `delimiters`: This is a list of delimiters to look for math. Each delimiter
|
|
has three properties:
|
|
|
|
- `left`: A string which starts the math expression (i.e. the left delimiter).
|
|
- `right`: A string which ends the math expression (i.e. the right delimiter).
|
|
- `display`: A boolean of whether the math in the expression should be
|
|
rendered in display mode or not.
|
|
|
|
The default value is:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
[
|
|
{left: "$$", right: "$$", display: true},
|
|
{left: "\\[", right: "\\]", display: true},
|
|
{left: "\\(", right: "\\)", display: false}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `ignoredTags`: This is a list of DOM node types to ignore when recursing
|
|
through. The default value is
|
|
`["script", "noscript", "style", "textarea", "pre", "code"]`.
|
|
|
|
- `errorCallback`: A callback method returning a message and an error stack
|
|
in case of an critical error during rendering. The default uses `console.error`.
|
|
|
|
Note that the `displayMode` property of the options object is ignored, and is
|
|
instead taken from the `display` key of the corresponding entry in the
|
|
`delimiters` key. |
