Usage

  1. Set your desired conversion-types or skip this step to convert your markdown-file to PDF:
    • Open up your Visual Studio Code-Settings and set markdownConverter.ConversionType to an array of types:
  2. Optionally set the pattern for resolving the destination-path:
  3. Open up the command pallet (Ctrl, Shift+P) and search one of these commands:
    • Markdown: Convert Document (Markdown: Dokument Konvertieren in German) or mco (mk in German) for short
    • Markdown: Convert all Documents (Markdown: Alle Dokumente konvertieren) or mcd (madk in German) for short
    • Markdown: Chain all Documents (Markdown: Alle Dokumente verketten) or mcad (madv in German) for short
  4. Press enter and wait for the process to finish

Variable Substitution

Before the conversion, the markdown-file is preprocessed using Handlebars. Variables (such as {{ Author }}) are automatically replaced with the corresponding attribute-value.

Npm

Example:

Following attributes are predefined and may be overridden by the document-attributes:

  • CreationDate
    A Date-value indicating the time of the creation of the markdown-file
  • ChangeDate
    A Date-value indicating the time of the last change of the content of the markdown-file
  • CurrentDate
    A Date-value representing the time of the conversion
  • Author
    The assumed name of the author according to GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, GIT_COMMITER_NAME, HGUSER, C9_USER, git, wmic or osascript
  • Attributes declared inside the vscode-settings (see Settings)

Date-Formatting

Date-attributes are being formatted by default. MarkdownConverter allows you to customize the format of every individual date.

You can format an individual date by using the FormatDate-helper like this:

Example:

You can override the default date-format for a document by adding a DateFormat attribute:

Example:

Custom Date-Formats

There are two predefined date-formats, namely Default and FullDate, which represent date-formats for your current locale.

If you use a specific date-format repeatedly you might want to specify a custom date-format using the markdownConverter.DateFormats setting (see [Settings][#settings]):
