Override MermaidBlockNode in MarkdownRender
If you want to completely replace the mermaid renderer used by MarkdownRender (for example in the playground-demo), you can use setCustomComponents and provide a programmatic renderer that mounts MermaidBlockNode with custom event handlers.
Example:
ts
import { MermaidBlockNode, setCustomComponents } from 'markstream-vue'
import { h } from 'vue'
setCustomComponents('playground-demo', {
mermaid: (props: any) => h(MermaidBlockNode, {
...props,
onExport: (ev: any) => {
// read the rendered svg from ev.svgElement and upload or save
const svgEl = ev.svgElement as SVGElement | null
if (svgEl) {
const svgString = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(svgEl)
uploadSvgToServer(svgString)
}
ev.preventDefault()
},
}),
})Key points:
- Use
onExport/onCopy(camelCase) when passing listeners viah(). - Call
ev.preventDefault()to prevent the default behavior insideMermaidBlockNode. ev.svgElement(if present) gives direct access to the rendered SVG DOM node.ev.svgElementgives direct access to the rendered SVG DOM node andev.svgStringcontains a serialized string of the SVG (ready to upload or send to an API).
Quick try — test the override by mounting the custom renderer inside your app's client entry and interacting with onExport in the playground.
ts
// .vitepress/clientAppEnhance.ts or playground client entry
import { setCustomComponents } from 'markstream-vue'
setCustomComponents('playground-demo', {
mermaid: (props: any) => h(MermaidBlockNode, { ...props, onExport: (ev) => {
ev.preventDefault()
console.log('exported', ev.svgElement)
} })
})Playground demo: the repo includes a runnable playground page demonstrating intercepting the export event and uploading the svg — open: /playground/src/pages/mermaid-export-demo.vue or run the playground and visit the route for the demo.
