This is a markdown file loader

Why this?

This loader will help you directly import a markdown file as a common react component, is that amazing?

Previously when we want to load a markdown file, we may �need to do some extra work to load the file, or babel will throw some error while you do these jobs.

How to use?

While using this loader, you need to download it first

npm i md-react-loader

Secondly, write the config of your webpack module rule for md file

{
  test: /\.(md)$/,
  use: [
    {
      loader: require.resolve('babel-loader'),
      options: {
        presets:[
          "@babel/preset-env",
          "@babel/preset-react"
        ]
      }
    },
    {
      loader: require.resolve('md-react-loader')
    }
  ]
}

if there if a warning: Unknown DOM property class. Did you mean className?

Im sorry for that, you need this lib:

npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-react-html-attrs

and rewrite your babel loader options:

{
  presets:[
    "@babel/preset-env",
    "@babel/preset-react"
  ],
  plugins: [
    "react-html-attrs"
  ]
}

At the end, you just need to import the file directly, then you will get a object like this

{
  html: 'your html',
  Component: a react component
}

so you can whatever use the Component directly, or render html in your own way, and meantime you can add your own props to this component

import Md from './MyTest.md'
const MyComponent = () => <Md.Component className="my_own_class" />
export default MyComponent

or

import Md from './MyTest.md'
const MyComponent = () => (
  <div
    dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: Md.html }}
  />
)
export default MyComponent

Besides, if your markdown file contains some code and you are going to highlight them, you just need to download prismjs on npm and import css file in this library

import Md from './MyTest.md'
import 'prismjs'
import 'md-react-loader/lib/index.css'

const MyComponent = () => <Md.Component className="my_own_class" />
export default MyComponent

now you just did a good job!
