Summary

Deprecates renderMath() and validateMath() from comark/plugins/math (and the framework plugins/math re-exports). They will be removed in 0.9.0.

  • No renderer uses them: @comark/html, React, Vue, Svelte and Angular Math components all call katex.renderToString directly, and ANSI doesn't use KaTeX.
  • They are the only KaTeX usage in the core parser package, which otherwise keeps parsing and rendering separate.
  • MathConfig.throwOnError is deprecated too: the parser ignores it, it only fed renderMath. MathConfig.options stays for now.

Changes

  • packages/comark/src/plugins/math.ts: @deprecated JSDoc on renderMath, validateMath, MathConfig.throwOnError, linking to the docs.
  • docs/content/4.plugins/1.built-in/math.md: new Rendering math manually section with plain katex render/validate snippets and a removal warning; throwOnError marked deprecated.
  • packages/comark/test/plugins/math.test.ts: removed tests for the deprecated helpers.

Migration

import katex from 'katex'

const html = katex.renderToString(code, { displayMode, throwOnError: false })

function isValidMath(code: string) {
  try { katex.renderToString(code, { throwOnError: true }); return true } catch { return false }
}

No runtime behavior change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified that throwOnError is ignored by the math parser and only affects the deprecated renderMath() helper, which is planned for removal in version 0.9.0.
    • Marked renderMath() and validateMath() exports as deprecated, with removal planned for version 0.9.0.
    • Added examples and guidance for using KaTeX directly to render inline and display math and validate syntax.

Both helpers are unused by every renderer and will be removed in 0.9.0. MathConfig.throwOnError is deprecated as well since the parser ignores it. Docs now show how to call katex directly.

Walkthrough

The math documentation now describes deprecated options and helpers, and shows direct KaTeX alternatives. The test suite adds bracket-parsing coverage and removes tests for the deprecated helper exports. The published package-size snapshot changes from 397k to 398k; the file count remains 158.

Changes: Math plugin documentation and test updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document math API deprecations
packages/comark/src/plugins/math.ts, docs/content/4.plugins/1.built-in/math.md
The documentation marks throwOnError, renderMath(), and validateMath() as deprecated, and describes direct KaTeX alternatives.
Test bracket math parsing
packages/comark/test/plugins/math.test.ts, test/bundle.test.ts
The tests cover bracket parsing and fallback behavior, and no longer import renderMath() or validateMath(). The package-size snapshot changes to 398k; the file count remains 158.

The change is mergeable, but the math guide should clarify that Svelte does not export the deprecated helpers.

Explanation

The title "chore(math): deprecate renderMath and validateMath" names the main change: the PR adds @deprecated markers to renderMath() and validateMath() and to MathConfig.throwOnError, with removal planned for 0.9.0. The title is short, specific, and matches the changeset. The conventional "chore(math):" prefix fits a deprecation-only change with no runtime behavior change.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 100.00% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 2 functions across 3 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Exclude Svelte from the framework export claim.

@comark/svelte/plugins/math exports only the default plugin, MathConfig, and Math. It does not export renderMath() or validateMath(). A Svelte user who imports either helper from this subpath receives a missing-export error.

Retain focused tests for the still-public math helpers.

renderMath and validateMath remain public until the planned 0.9.0 removal. Removing their tests eliminates the only assertions for successful rendering and validation failure. The remaining parser test does not detect regressions in these helpers. Re-add the focused tests.

Suggested fix
 import { describe, expect, it } from 'vitest'
 import { parseMarkdown } from '../../src/parse'
-import math from '../../src/plugins/math'
+import math, { renderMath, validateMath } from '../../src/plugins/math'

   it('parses inline and display math without loading katex', async () => {
     const { nodes } = await parseMarkdown('Inline $x^2$ and display $$E = mc^2$$', {
       plugins: [math()],
     })
 
     expect(JSON.stringify(nodes)).toContain('math')
   })

Remove the duplicate bracket-math suite.

The existing suite beginning at Line 96 has the same 11 cases and expectations. Vitest now runs every case twice without adding coverage. Keep one copy. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
