This is a Sanity Studio v3 plugin. For the v2 version, please refer to the v2-branch.
A Markdown editor with preview for Sanity Studio.
Supports Github flavored markdown and image uploads. You can either drag image(s) into the editor or click the bottom bar to bring up a file selector. The resulting image URL(s) are inserted with a default width parameter which you can change to your liking using the Sanity image pipeline parameters.
The current version is a wrapper around React SimpleMDE (EasyMDE) Markdown Editor, and by extension, EasyMDE.
Install sanity-plugin-markdown
and easymde@2
(peer dependency).
npm install --save sanity-plugin-markdown easymde@2
Add it as a plugin in sanity.config.ts (or .js):
import {markdownSchema} from 'sanity-plugin-markdown'
export default defineConfig({
// ...
plugins: [markdownSchema()],
})
Then, declare a field in your schema to be markdown
const myDocument = {
type: 'document',
name: 'myDocument',
fields: [
{
type: 'markdown',
description: 'A Github flavored markdown field with image uploading',
name: 'bio',
},
],
}
Next.js without Next 13 app directory does not support css imports from node_modules
.
To use this plugin in this context (pages
directory), use the sanity-plugin-markdown/next
import instead of sanity-plugin-markdown
:
import {markdownSchema} from 'sanity-plugin-markdown/next'
Then, make sure to add
import 'easymde/dist/easymde.min.css'
to the top of pages/_app.tsx
.
The plugin takes an input
config option that can be used in combination with the MarkdownInput
export
to configure the underlying React SimpleMDE component:
- Create a custom component that wraps MarkdownInput
- Memoize reactMdeProps and pass along
// CustomMarkdownInput.tsx
import {MarkdownInput, MarkdownInputProps} from 'sanity-plugin-markdown'
export function CustomMarkdownInput(props) {
const reactMdeProps: MarkdownInputProps['reactMdeProps'] = useMemo(() => {
return {
options: {
toolbar: ['bold', 'italic'],
// more options available, see:
// https://github.com/Ionaru/easy-markdown-editor#options-list
},
// more props available, see:
// https://github.com/RIP21/react-simplemde-editor#react-simplemde-easymde-markdown-editor
}
}, [])
return <MarkdownInput {...props} reactMdeProps={reactMdeProps} />
}
Set the plugin input option:
// studio.config.ts
import {markdownSchema} from 'sanity-plugin-markdown'
import {CustomMarkdownInput} from './CustomMarkdownInput'
export default defineConfig({
// ... rest of the config
plugins: [markdownSchema({input: CustomMarkdownInput})],
})
Implement a custom input similar to the one above, and use it as components.input
on the field directly.
defineField({
type: 'markdown',
name: 'markdown',
title: 'Markdown',
components: {input: CustomMarkdownInput},
})
One way to customize the preview that does not involve ReactDOMServer (used by React SimpleMDE) is to install marked and DOMPurify and create a custom preview:
npm i marked dompurify
Then use these to create a custom editor:
// MarkdownInputCustomPreview.tsx
import {MarkdownInput, MarkdownInputProps} from 'sanity-plugin-markdown'
import DOMPurify from 'dompurify'
import {marked} from 'marked'
export function CustomMarkdownInput(props) {
const reactMdeProps: MarkdownInputProps['reactMdeProps'] = useMemo(() => {
return {
options: {
previewRender: (markdownText) => {
// configure as needed according to
// https://github.com/markedjs/marked#docs
return DOMPurify.sanitize(marked.parse(markdownText))
},
//customizing using renderingConfig is also an option
},
}
}, [])
return <MarkdownInput {...props} reactMdeProps={reactMdeProps} />
}
Use the component as described in previous sections.
Provide a function to options.imageUrl that takes a SanityImageAssetDocument and returns a string.
The function will be invoked whenever an image is pasted or dragged into the markdown editor, after upload completes.
The default implementation uses
;(imageAsset) => `${imageAsset.url}?w=450`
defineField({
type: 'markdown',
name: 'markdown',
title: 'Markdown',
options: {
imageUrl: (imageAsset) => `${imageAsset.url}?w=400&h=400`,
},
})
