|   ^    | (3x1)  |   <    |   <    |  Cell  |

Tips

Why do I need this plugin?

remark-extended-table is good, but it wiil overrides remark-gfm behaviors, and have to inject handlers to remark-rehype:

import rehypeStringify from 'rehype-stringify';
import {
  extendedTableHandlers,
  remarkExtendedTable
} from 'remark-extended-table';
import remarkGfm from 'remark-gfm';
import remarkParse from 'remark-parse';
import remarkRehype from 'remark-rehype';
import { unified } from 'unified';

unified()
  .use(remarkParse)
  .use(remarkGfm)
  .use(remarkExtendedTable)
  .use(remarkRehype, null, {
    handlers: {
      ...extendedTableHandlers
    }
  })
  .use(rehypeStringify)
  .process(markdown);

Some times we can't do that, you can use this plugin instead.

For example, in Docusaurus projects:

// docusaurus.config.mjs
import { rehypeExtendedTable } from 'rehype-extended-table';

export default {
  presets: [
    [
      'classic',
      {
        docs: {
          rehypePlugins: [
            [
              rehypeExtendedTable,
              {
                // ...options here
              }
            ]
          ]
        }
      }
    ]
  ]
};

Different with rehype-table-merge

  • rehype-extended-table support MDX props name by default.
  • rehype-extended-table can handle complex merge case without bug
  • support options.mergeTo
