## Installation

If you use [Vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle), add the following line to your `~/.vimrc`:

```vim
Plugin 'godlygeek/tabular'
Plugin 'plasticboy/vim-markdown'
```

The `tabular` plugin must come *before* `vim-markdown`.

Then run inside Vim:

```vim
:so ~/.vimrc
:PluginInstall
```

If you use [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), do this:

```sh
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/plasticboy/vim-markdown.git
```

To install without Pathogen using the Debian [vim-addon-manager](http://packages.qa.debian.org/v/vim-addon-manager.html), do this:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/plasticboy/vim-markdown.git
cd vim-markdown
sudo make install
vim-addon-manager install markdown
```

If you are not using any package manager, download the [tarball](https://github.com/plasticboy/vim-markdown/archive/master.tar.gz) and do this:

```sh
cd ~/.vim
tar --strip=1 -zxf vim-markdown-master.tar.gz
```

## Options

### Disable Folding

Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable the folding configuration:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_folding_disabled = 1
```

This option only controls Vim Markdown specific folding configuration.

To enable/disable folding use Vim's standard folding configuration.

```vim
set [no]foldenable
```

### Change fold style

To fold in a style like [python-mode](https://github.com/klen/python-mode), add the following to your `.vimrc`:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_folding_style_pythonic = 1
```

Level 1 heading which is served as a document title is not folded.
`g:vim_markdown_folding_level` setting is not active with this fold style.

To prevent foldtext from being set add the following to your `.vimrc`:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_override_foldtext = 0
```

### Set header folding level

Folding level is a number between 1 and 6. By default, if not specified, it is set to 1.

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_folding_level = 6
```

Tip: it can be changed on the fly with:

```vim
:let g:vim_markdown_folding_level = 1
:edit
```

### Disable Default Key Mappings

Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable default key mappings:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_no_default_key_mappings = 1
```

You can also map them by yourself with `<Plug>` mappings.

### Enable TOC window auto-fit

Allow for the TOC window to auto-fit when it's possible for it to shrink.
It never increases its default size (half screen), it only shrinks.

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_toc_autofit = 1
```

### Text emphasis restriction to single-lines

By default text emphasis works across multiple lines until a closing token is found. However, it's possible to restrict text emphasis to a single line (ie, for it to be applied a closing token must be found on the same line). To do so:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_emphasis_multiline = 0
```

### Syntax Concealing

Concealing is set for some syntax.

For example, conceal `[link text](link url)` as just `link text`.
Also, `_italic_` and `*italic*` will conceal to just _italic_.
Similarly `__bold__`, `**bold**`, `___italic bold___`, and `***italic bold***`
will conceal to just __bold__, **bold**, ___italic bold___, and ***italic bold*** respectively.

To enable conceal use Vim's standard conceal configuration.

```vim
set conceallevel=2
```

To disable conceal regardless of `conceallevel` setting, add the following to your `.vimrc`:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_conceal = 0
```

To disable math conceal with LaTeX math syntax enabled, add the following to your `.vimrc`:

```vim
let g:tex_conceal = ""
let g:vim_markdown_math = 1
```

### Fenced code block languages

You can use filetype name as fenced code block languages for syntax highlighting.
If you want to use different name from filetype, you can add it in your `.vimrc` like so:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_fenced_languages = ['csharp=cs']
```

This will cause the following to be highlighted using the `cs` filetype syntax.

    ```csharp
    ...
    ```

Default is `['c++=cpp', 'viml=vim', 'bash=sh', 'ini=dosini']`.

### Follow named anchors

This feature allows ge to follow named anchors in links of the form
`file#anchor` or just `#anchor`, where file may omit the `.md` extension as
usual. Two variables control its operation:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_follow_anchor = 1
```

This tells vim-markdown whether to attempt to follow a named anchor in a link or
not. When it is 1, and only if a link can be split in two parts by the pattern
'#', then the first part is interpreted as the file and the second one as the
named anchor. This also includes urls of the form `#anchor`, for which the first
part is considered empty, meaning that the target file is the current one. After
the file is opened, the anchor will be searched.

Default is `0`.

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_anchorexpr = "'<<'.v:anchor.'>>'"
```

This expression will be evaluated substituting `v:anchor` with a quoted string
that contains the anchor to visit. The result of the evaluation will become the
real anchor to search in the target file. This is useful in order to convert
anchors of the form, say, `my-section-title` to searches of the form `My Section
Title` or `<<my-section-title>>`.

Default is `''`.

### Syntax extensions

The following options control which syntax extensions will be turned on. They are off by default.

#### LaTeX math

Used as `$x^2$`, `$$x^2$$`, escapable as `\$x\$` and `\$\$x\$\$`.

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_math = 1
```

#### YAML Front Matter

Highlight YAML front matter as used by Jekyll or [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/content/front-matter/).

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_frontmatter = 1
```

#### TOML Front Matter

Highlight TOML front matter as used by [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/content/front-matter/).

TOML syntax highlight requires [vim-toml](https://github.com/cespare/vim-toml).

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_toml_frontmatter = 1
```

#### JSON Front Matter

Highlight JSON front matter as used by [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/content/front-matter/).

JSON syntax highlight requires [vim-json](https://github.com/elzr/vim-json).

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_json_frontmatter = 1
```

### Adjust new list item indent

You can adjust a new list indent. For example, you insert a single line like below:

```
* item1
```

Then if you type `o` to insert new line in vim and type `* item2`, the result will be:

```
* item1
    * item2
```

vim-markdown automatically insert the indent. By default, the number of spaces of indent is 4. If you'd like to change the number as 2, just write:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_new_list_item_indent = 2
```

### Do not require .md extensions for Markdown links

If you want to have a link like this `[link text](link-url)` and follow it for editing in vim using the `ge` command, but have it open the file "link-url.md" instead of the file "link-url", then use this option:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_no_extensions_in_markdown = 1
```
This is super useful for GitLab and GitHub wiki repositories.

Normal behaviour would be that vim-markup required you to do this `[link text](link-url.md)`, but this is not how the Gitlab and GitHub wiki repositories work. So this option adds some consistency between the two. 

### Auto-write when following link

If you follow a link like this `[link text](link-url)` using the `ge` shortcut, this option will automatically save any edits you made before moving you:

```vim
let g:vim_markdown_autowrite = 1
```

## Mappings

The following work on normal and visual modes:

-   `gx`: open the link under the cursor in the same browser as the standard `gx` command. `<Plug>Markdown_OpenUrlUnderCursor`

    The standard `gx` is extended by allowing you to put your cursor anywhere inside a link.

    For example, all the following cursor positions will work:

        [Example](http://example.com)
        ^  ^    ^^   ^       ^
        1  2    34   5       6

        <http://example.com>
        ^  ^               ^
        1  2               3

    Known limitation: does not work for links that span multiple lines.

-   `ge`: open the link under the cursor in Vim for editing. Useful for relative markdown links. `<Plug>Markdown_EditUrlUnderCursor`

    The rules for the cursor position are the same as the `gx` command.

-   `]]`: go to next header. `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToNextHeader`

-   `[[`: go to previous header. Contrast with `]c`. `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToPreviousHeader`

-   `][`: go to next sibling header if any. `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToNextSiblingHeader`

-   `[]`: go to previous sibling header if any. `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToPreviousSiblingHeader`

-   `]c`: go to Current header. `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToCurHeader`

-   `]u`: go to parent header (Up). `<Plug>Markdown_MoveToParentHeader`

This plugin follows the recommended Vim plugin mapping interface, so to change the map `]u` to `asdf`, add to your `.vimrc`:

    map asdf <Plug>Markdown_MoveToParentHeader

To disable a map use:

    map <Plug> <Plug>Markdown_MoveToParentHeader

## Commands

The following requires `:filetype plugin on`.

-   `:HeaderDecrease`:

    Decrease level of all headers in buffer: `h2` to `h1`, `h3` to `h2`, etc.

    If range is given, only operate in the range.

    If an `h1` would be decreased, abort.

    For simplicity of implementation, Setex headers are converted to Atx.

-   `:HeaderIncrease`: Analogous to `:HeaderDecrease`, but increase levels instead.

-   `:SetexToAtx`:

    Convert all Setex style headers in buffer to Atx.

    If a range is given, e.g. hit `:` from visual mode, only operate on the range.

-   `:TableFormat`: Format the table under the cursor [like this](http://www.cirosantilli.com/markdown-style-guide/#tables).

    Requires [Tabular](https://github.com/godlygeek/tabular).

    The input table *must* already have a separator line as the second line of the table.
    That line only needs to contain the correct pipes `|`, nothing else is required.

-   `:Toc`: create a quickfix vertical window navigable table of contents with the headers.

    Hit `<Enter>` on a line to jump to the corresponding line of the markdown file.

-   `:Toch`: Same as `:Toc` but in an horizontal window.

-   `:Toct`: Same as `:Toc` but in a new tab.

-   `:Tocv`: Same as `:Toc` for symmetry with `:Toch` and `:Tocv`.
