Special edition for MarkText 0.17.1 forked

Why is there this special edition

The author's Ebook project chose Markdown as the artifact format, and the editor hopes that:

• At least partially realizes the effect of what you see is what you get, and improves editing efficiency;
• The image files can be persisted based on the project system, and the storage structure of the image files should be stable compared to the Ebook project.
• It is best to be able to inline mind maps, flow charts and UML graphics, so you no longer need to use third-party tools to create the graphics.
• The Markdown component supported by the editor should be fully compatible with the Ebook website, and copy the original md file to directly generate the website. There should be no additional modification work after the structure is stable.

MarkText 0.17.1 can mostly meet the above requirements, but there are the following serious problems:

1. It has not been updated since 2022-3-8 and does not support mindmap in Mermaid;
2. Global configuration files are not conducive to the personalized configuration of each different Ebook project;
3. The relative path image folders used to store images support too few preset variables to meet the needs of complex structure projects;

Update history

Thanks to Ran Luo and other contributors for their contributions, if you like the original MarkText, please visit the original repository

• v1.0.0beta is released, including win_x64, MacOS x64, Arm64 and other versions;

Features have been realized

• Optimize styles to improve space utilization and operation experience;

• Mermaid updated to a newer version;

• Added support for Mermaid mindmap;

• Modified to Chinese version, thanks to chinayangxiaowei for the ideas provided;

• Similar to the vscode workspace, you can apply different settings when opening different directories. The folder settings file name is marktext.json;

  For example, for folders

  {
    "imageRelativeDirectoryName" : " ${fileWorkspaceFolder}/markdown/_images/${relativeFileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension} " ,
    "imagePreferRelativeDirectory" : true ,
    "imageInsertAction" : " folder " ,
    "theme" : " one-dark "
  }

• Optimize the processing of copying clipboard images, and can personalize the local storage path of the image through multiple preset variables;

  Variable name	illustrate
  {filename}	Extensions are not included
  {fileBasenameNoExtension}	Same filename, used for compatibility with vscode variables
  {fileWorkspaceFolder}	The currently open project directory, compatible with vscode variables
  {relativeFileDirname}	The relative path of the current file relative to the project root directory, compatible with the vscode variable
