+++ description = "Generate diagrams and flowcharts from text" title = "Mermaid" +++

With the Mermaid library and shortcode, you can generate diagrams and flowcharts from text, in a similar manner as Markdown.

{{< mermaid >}} graph LR; If --> Then Then --> Else {{< /mermaid >}}

{{% notice note %}} This only works in modern browsers. {{% /notice %}}

{{% notice warning %}} Due to limitations with Mermaid, it is currently not possible to use Mermaid code fences in an initially collapsed expand shortcode. This is a know issue and can't be fixed by this theme. {{% /notice %}}

Usage

The generated graphs can be be panned by dragging them and zoomed by using the mousewheel. On mobile devices you can use finger gestures.

While the examples are using shortcode syntax it is recommended to use codefence syntax instead. This is because more and more other software supports Mermaid codefences (eg. GitHub) and so your markdown becomes more portable.

{{% notice note %}} To use codefence syntax you have to turn off guessSyntax for the markup.highlight setting (see the configuration section). {{% /notice %}}

{{< tabs groupId="shortcode-codefence">}} {{% tab name="codefence" %}}

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

{{% /tab %}} {{% tab name="shortcode" %}}

{{</* mermaid */>}}
graph LR;
    If --> Then
    Then --> Else
{{</* /mermaid */>}}

{{% /tab %}} {{< /tabs >}}

Parameter

Parameter are only supported when using shortcode syntax. Defaults are used when using codefence syntax.

Name Default Notes
align center Allowed values are left, center or right.
<content> <empty> Your mermaid graph.

Configuration

Mermaid is configured with default settings. You can customize Mermaid's default settings for all of your files thru a JSON object in your config.toml, override these settings per page thru your pages frontmatter or override these setting per diagramm thru diagram directives.

The JSON object of your config.toml / frontmatter is forwarded into Mermaid's mermaid.initialize() function.

See Mermaid documentation for all allowed settings.

The theme setting can also be set by your used color variant. This will be the sitewide default and can - again - be overridden by your settings in config.toml, frontmatter or diagram directives.

{{% notice note %}} To use codefence syntax you have to turn off guessSyntax for the markup.highlight setting. {{% /notice %}}

Global Configuration File

[params]
  mermaidInitialize = "{ \"theme\": \"dark\" }"

[markup]
  [markup.highlight]
    # if set to `guessSyntax = true`, there will be no unstyled code even if no language
    # was given BUT mermaid code fences will not work anymore! So this is a mandatory
    # setting for your site
    guessSyntax = false

Page's Frontmatter

mermaidInitialize = "{ \"theme\": \"dark\" }"
