入门
本文讲解了如何将 MDX 集成到您的项目中。 还展示了如何将 MDX 与您所使用的打包工具(bundler)和 JSX 运行时协同使用。 如需了解 MDX 格式的工作原理, 我们建议您先去阅读 § MDX 是什么 章节。 当您已经准备好使用 MDX 时,请参考 § 使用 MDX 章节。
目录
事先准备
MDX 依赖 JSX, 因此您的项目也得是支持 JSX 的。 任何 JSX 运行时(React、Preact、Vue 等)都可以。 注意,我们会为您把 JSX 编译成 JavaScript,因此您不必再做相关设置 了。
所有匹配 @mdx-js/* 命名格式的软件包都是使用最新的 JavaScript 语法编写的。 MDX 支持 Node.js 16.0 或更高版本。 我们提供的软件包仅支持 ESM 格式。
注意: 如果你使用的是 Rust 而不是 Node.js? 请试一试 mdxjs-rs!
快速开始
打包工具(Bundler)
MDX 是一种编译成 JavaScript 的语言。 (我们还将普通的 markdown 也编译为 JavaScript。) 最简单的入门方法就是使用一个针对您所使用的打包工具的The easiest way to get started is to use an integration for your bundler if you have one:
- if you use esbuild (or Bun), install and configure
@mdx-js/esbuild - if you use Rollup (or Vite), install and configure
@mdx-js/rollup - if you use webpack (or Next.js), install and configure
@mdx-js/loader
You can also use MDX without bundlers:
- you can import MDX files in Node.js with
@mdx-js/node-loader - you can use our core compiler
@mdx-js/mdxto compile MDX files - you can use our core compiler
@mdx-js/mdxto evaluate (compile and run) MDX files
For more info on these tools, see their dedicated sections: ¶ Next.js, ¶ Node.js, ¶ Rollup, ¶ Vite, ¶ esbuild, and ¶ webpack.
JSX
Now you’ve set up an integration or @mdx-js/mdx itself, it’s time to configure your JSX runtime.
- if you use React, that’s the default; optionally install and configure
@mdx-js/react - if you use Preact, set
jsxImportSourceinProcessorOptionsto'preact'; optionally install and configure@mdx-js/preact - if you use Svelte, install
svelte-jsx, and setjsxImportSourceinProcessorOptionsto'svelte-jsx' - if you use Vue, set
jsxImportSourceinProcessorOptionsto'vue'; optionally install and configure@mdx-js/vue - if you use Solid, set
jsxImportSourceinProcessorOptionsto'solid-js/h' - if you use Emotion, set
jsxImportSourceinProcessorOptionsto'@emotion/react' - if you use Theme UI, install and configure
@mdx-js/react, then wrap your MDX content in a<ThemeProvider />
Other JSX runtimes are supported by setting jsxImportSource in ProcessorOptions.
For more info on these tools, see their dedicated sections: ¶ Emotion, ¶ Preact, ¶ React, ¶ Solid, ¶ Svelte, ¶ Theme UI, and ¶ Vue.
编辑器
通过为你所使用的编辑器添加对 MDX 的支持,能够增强使用 MDX 的 体验:
- 对于 VS Code, 请试试
mdx-js/mdx-analyzer - 对于 Vim, 请试试
jxnblk/vim-mdx-js - 对于 Sublime Text, 请试试
jonsuh/mdx-sublime - 对于 JetBrains IntelliJ/WebStorm, 请试试
JetBrains/mdx-intellij-plugin
The syntax highlighting that powers our VS Code extension and that is used to highlight code blocks on GitHub is maintained at wooorm/markdown-tm-language.
Types
Expand example of typed imports
First install the package:
npm install @types/mdx
…TypeScript should automatically pick it up:
import Post from './post.mdx' // `Post` is now typed.
(alias) function Post(props: MDXProps): Element
import PostAn function component which renders the MDX content using JSX.
- @param props This value is be available as the named variable
propsinside the MDX component. - @returns A JSX element. The meaning of this may depend on the project configuration. I.e. it could be a React, Preact, or Vuex element.
Our packages are typed with TypeScript. For types to work, the JSX namespace must be typed. This is done by installing and using the types of your framework, such as @types/react.
To enable types for imported .mdx, .md, etc., install and use @types/mdx. This package also exports several useful types, such as MDXComponents which represents the components prop. You can import them like so:
import type {MDXComponents} from 'mdx/types.js'
(alias) type MDXComponents = NestedMDXComponents & {
symbol?: Component<React.SVGProps<SVGSymbolElement>>;
object?: Component<React.DetailedHTMLProps<React.ObjectHTMLAttributes<HTMLObjectElement>, HTMLObjectElement>>;
... 175 more ...;
view?: Component<...>;
} & {
...;
}
import MDXComponentsMDX components may be passed as the components.
The key is the name of the element to override. The value is the component to render instead.
安全性
MDX 是一门编程语言。 如果你相信你的用户, 那就岁月静好。 如果不信任, 那就不安全了。
不要让网上的随便什么人都能随意编写 MDX。 如果你这样做了, 你需要考虑使用带有 沙箱 的 <iframe>, 但安全性仍很难保证, 而且似乎也不是 100% 安全。 对于 Node.js, vm2 听起来很有趣。 不过,你还是应该使用 Docker 之类的工具对整个操作系统进行沙箱化, 以执行速率限制, 并确保进程耗时过长时可以被杀死。
Integrations
Bundlers
esbuild
Expand example
import mdx from '@mdx-js/esbuild'
import esbuild from 'esbuild'
await esbuild.build({
entryPoints: ['index.mdx'],
format: 'esm',
outfile: 'output.js',
plugins: [mdx({/* jsxImportSource: …, otherOptions… */})]
})
(alias) function mdx(options?: Readonly<Options> | null | undefined): esbuild.Plugin
import mdxCreate an esbuild plugin to compile MDX to JS.
esbuild takes care of turning modern JavaScript features into syntax that works wherever you want it to. With other integrations you might need to use Babel for this, but with esbuild that’s not needed. See esbuild’s docs for more info.
- @param options Configuration (optional).
- @return Plugin.
import esbuildimport esbuildfunction build<{
entryPoints: string[];

outfile: string;
plugins: esbuild.Plugin[];
}>): Promise<...>This function invokes the "esbuild" command-line tool for you. It returns a promise that either resolves with a "BuildResult" object or rejects with a "BuildFailure" object.
- Works in node: yes
- Works in browser: yes

- @param options Configuration (optional).
- @return Plugin.
We support esbuild. Install and configure the esbuild plugin @mdx-js/esbuild. Configure your JSX runtime depending on which one (React, Preact, Vue, etc.) you use.
To use more modern JavaScript features than what your users support, configure esbuild’s target.

namespace console
var console: ConsoleThe console module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.
The module exports two specific components:
- A
Consoleclass with methods such asconsole.log(),console.error()andconsole.warn()that can be used to write to any Node.js stream. - A global
consoleinstance configured to write toprocess.stdoutandprocess.stderr. The globalconsolecan be used without callingrequire('console').
Warning: The global console object's methods are neither consistently synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the note on process I/O for more information.
Example using the global console:
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
// Error: Whoops, something bad happened
// at [eval]:5:15
// at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
// at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
// at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
// at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
// at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
// at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3
const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
Example using the Console class:
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);
myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err
const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
- @see source
(method) Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): voidPrints to stdout with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution values similar to printf(3) (the arguments are all passed to util.format()).
const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
console.log('count:', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
See util.format() for more information.
- @since v0.1.100
const result: babel.BabelFileResult | nullYou should probably use Rollup or webpack instead of Babel directly as that gives the best interface. It is possible to use @mdx-js/mdx in Babel and it’s a bit faster, as it skips @mdx-js/mdx serialization and Babel parsing, if Babel is used anyway.
Babel does not support syntax extensions to its parser (it has “syntax” plugins but those only turn internal flags on or off). It does support setting a different parser. Which in turn lets us choose whether to use the @mdx-js/mdx or @babel/parser.

Astro
Astro has its own MDX integration. You can add the integration with the Astro CLI: npx astro add mdx.
This base setup lets you import markdown, Astro components, and MDX files as components. See Astro’s Framework components guide for info on how to use components from frameworks in your MDX files.
For more on how to combine Astro and MDX, see Astro’s MDX integration docs.
Docusaurus
Docusaurus supports MDX by default. See Docusaurus’ MDX and React guide for info on how to use MDX with Docusaurus.

JavaScript engines
Node.js
MDX files can be imported in Node by using @mdx-js/node-loader. See its readme on how to configure it.
Bun
MDX files can be imported in Bun by using Create an esbuild plugin to compile MDX to JS. esbuild takes care of turning modern JavaScript features into syntax that works wherever you want it to. With other integrations you might need to use Babel for this, but with esbuild that’s not needed. See esbuild’s docs for more info.
