Merrrmaid

Arrr! Pirrrates

Fello' pirrrates, grog made us dizzy! Be awarrre some stuff may look weird in this trrranslat'n. Like Merrrmaids, do'n math or chemistrrry and stuff.

Th' mermaid shortcode generates diagrams an' flowcharts from text, 'n a similar manner as Marrrkdown us'n th' Merrrmaid library.

graph LR;
    If --> Then
    Then --> Else

Avast

This only works 'n modern browsers.

Usage

While th' examples be us'n shorrrtcodes wit' named parameter it be recommended t' use codefences instead. This be because more an' more other software supports Merrrmaid codefences (eg. GitHub) an' so yer markdown becomes more port'ble.

Ye be free t' also call this shortcode from yer own partials.

```mermaid { align="center" zoom="true" }
graph LR;
    If --> Then
    Then --> Else
```

{{< mermaid align="center" zoom="true" >}}
graph LR;
    If --> Then
    Then --> Else
{{< /mermaid >}}

{{ partial "shortcodes/mermaid.html" (dict
  "page"    .
  "content" "graph LR;\nIf --> Then\nThen --> Else"
  "align"   "center"
  "zoom"    "true"
)}}

Th' generated graphs can be panned by dragg'n them an' zoomed by us'n th' mousewheel. On mobile devices ye can use finger gestures.

Parameter

Name	Default	Notes
align	`center`	Allowed values be `left`, `center` or `right`.
zoom	see notes	Whether th' graph be pan- an' zoom'ble. If not set th' value be determined by th' `mermaidZoom` sett'n o' th' ship or th' planks frontmatter or `false` if not set at all. - `false`: no pan or zoom - `true`: pan an' zoom active
<content>	<empty>	Yer Merrrmaid graph.

Configurat'n

Merrrmaid be configured wit' default sett'ns. Ye can cust'mize Mermaid’s default sett'ns fer all o' yer files thru a JSON object 'n yer hugo.toml, override these sett'ns per plank thru yer planks frontmatter or override these sett'n per diagramm thru diagram directives.

Th' JSON object o' yer hugo.toml / frontmatter be forwarded into Mermaid’s mermaid.initialize() funct'n.

See Merrrmaid documentat'n fer all allowed sett'ns.

Th' theme sett'n can also be set by yer used color variant. This will be th' sitewide default an' can - again - be overridden by yer sett'ns 'n hugo.toml, frontmatter or diagram directives.
