webpack loader for MDX.

Contents

What is this?

This package is a webpack loader to support MDX.

When should I use this?

This integration is useful if you’re using webpack (or another tool that uses webpack, such as Next.js).

This integration can be combined with the Babel loader to support nonstandard JSX runtimes (such as Vue) or compile modern JavaScript features to ones your users support.

If you want to evaluate MDX code then the lower-level compiler (@mdx-js/mdx) can be used manually.

Install

This package is ESM only: Node 12+ is needed to use it and it must be imported instead of required.

npm:

npm install @mdx-js/loader

yarn:

yarn add @mdx-js/loader

Use

Add something along these lines to your webpack.config.js:

module.exports = {
  module: {
    // …
    rules: [
      // …
      {
        test: /\.mdx?$/,
        use: [
          {
            loader: '@mdx-js/loader',
            /** @type {import('@mdx-js/loader').Options} */
            options: {}
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

API

This package exports a webpack plugin as the default export.

Source maps are supported based on how you configure webpack. You do not need to pass options.SourceMapGenerator.

options

options are the same as compile from @mdx-js/mdx.

Note: Babel

If you use modern JavaScript features you might want to use Babel through babel-loader to compile to code that works:

// …
use: [
  // Note that Webpack runs right-to-left: `@mdx-js/loader` is used first, then
  // `babel-loader`.
  {loader: 'babel-loader', options: {}},
  {
    loader: '@mdx-js/loader',
    /** @type {import('@mdx-js/loader').Options} */
    options: {},
  },
];
// …

Types
