npm VS marked

The fact that JSON doesn't support comments is so annoying, and I always thought that Douglas Crockford's rationale for this basically made no sense ("They can be misused!" - like, so what, nearly anything can be misused. So without support for comments e.g. in package.json files I have to do even worse hacky workaround bullshit like "__some_field_comment": "this is my comment"). There is of course jsonc and JSON5 but the fact that it's not supported everywhere means 10 years later we still can't write comments in package.json (there is https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/4482 and about a million related issues).

Things like the sparkline charts on npmjs (e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm ) are interactive SVGs. I think they're pretty common for data visualizations of all kinds

I actually did a POC 7 years ago about this - https://github.com/tanepiper/steal-ur-stuff

It was reported to npm at the time, but they chose to ignore it - https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/17724

Every time this pops up, I'm reminded of the day that the NPM registry started returning 418 responses.

I remember being at a training course that day and my manager asking me what we could do to fix it because our CI was failing to pull dependencies from NPM.

Trying to explain that NPM was returning a status code intended as an April Fools joke and which was never meant to see the light of production was quite difficult

https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/20791

I should really get around to how I discovered this 6 years ago and still nothing done about it

Whenever something like this comes up I usually have to tap the sign (and the original report)

NPM is not "Node Package Manager". https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm

> which can be overriden with env setting

Support for this is not great. Lots of packages still don't support this properly. My experience matches the 2015 comment https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/775#issuecomment-71294085

> Not sure why "symlinks" would be involved.

If you make your node_modules a symlink, multiple packages will fail. Even if you're not interested in doing that, others are.

Unless you change your node / gyp version. It doesn't really have a concept of runtime version. You can restrict it, but not have two concurrent versions if they conflict.

[email protected] was released in May 2017 and it seems to address many of the issues that Yarn aims to solve. Do keep an eye on it!

I think it's had been supposed to do that since forever. Apart from some bug in npm 5.3. Are you sure your package-lock versions actually conform to the semver ranges in your package.json?

Next, install gray-matter to extract metadata from the front matter of markdown files, and marked to convert the markdown files to HTML:

📑 Marked Markdown parser. Use it to create your own markdown editor.

Vrite SDK provides a few built-in input and output transformers. These are functions, with standardized signatures to process the content from and into Vrite. In this case, gfmInputTransformer is essentially a GitHub Flavored Markdown parser, using Marked.js under the hood.

Another contestant in this realm is Bright[1]. It runs entirely on the server and doesn't increase bundle size as seen here[2]. Regarding parsing speed tree-sitter is without a doubt performant since it is written in Rust, but I don't have any problems "parsing on every keystroke" with a setup containing Marked[3], highlight.js[4] and a sanitizer. I did however experience performance issues with other Markdown parser libraries than Marked.

The project uses markedJS to convert markdown into HTML, this is their GitHub page.

To handle pasting block Markdown content like this, I had to tap into ProseMirror and implement a custom mechanism (though somewhat based on TipTap’s paste rules), detecting starting and ending points of the blocks and parsing them with Marked.js.

I am using marked for markdown parsing together with marked-highlighting to handle syntax highlighting and everything is working as it should.

I'm trying to render user input using SvelteMarkdown (that uses marked).

GPT API returns data in markdown format. You can parse it using a Markdown library and string manipulation. On Electron app I developed https://jhappsproducts.gumroad.com/l/gpteverywhere, I used https://github.com/markedjs/marked and a code syntax highlighting package to display code blocks. And used JavaScript string manipulation to detect when code blocks start and end so I could add COPY/SAVE buttons to the blocks. I hope this helps, and happy coding! :)

Again, with streaming enabled, you’ll now receive new tokens as soon as they’re available. Given that OpenAI’s API uses Markdown in its response format, a full message will need to be put together from the incoming tokens and parsed to HTML, as accepted by the replaceContent function. For this purpose, I’ve used the Marked.js parser.
