## 6.0.0 - 2021-04-15

Welcome to version 6.
This a major release and therefore contains breaking changes.

### Change `renderers` to `components`

`react-markdown` used to let you define components for *markdown* constructs
(`link`, `delete`, `break`, etc).
This proved complex as users didn’t know about those names or markdown
peculiarities (such as that there are fully formed links *and* link references).

See [**GH-549**](https://github.com/remarkjs/react-markdown/issues/549) for more
on why this changed.
See [**Appendix B: Components** in
`readme.md`](https://github.com/remarkjs/react-markdown#appendix-b-components)
for more on components.

<details>
<summary>Show example of needed change</summary>

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  renderers={{
    // Use a fancy hr
    thematicBreak: ({node, ...props}) => <MyFancyRule {...props} />
  }}
>{`***`}</Markdown>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  components={{
    // Use a fancy hr
    hr: ({node, ...props}) => <MyFancyRule {...props} />
  }}
>{`***`}</Markdown>
```

</details>

<details>
<summary>Show conversion table</summary>

| Type (`renderers`) | Tag names (`components`) |
| - | - |
| `blockquote` | `blockquote` |
| `break` | `br` |
| `code`, `inlineCode` | `code`, `pre`**​*​** |
| `definition` | **†** |
| `delete` | `del`**‡** |
| `emphasis` | `em` |
| `heading` | `h1`, `h2`, `h3`, `h4`, `h5`, `h6`**§** |

*   **​\*​** It’s possible to differentiate between code based on the `inline`
    prop.
    Block code is also wrapped in a `pre`
*   **†** Resource (`[text](url)`) and reference (`[text][id]`) style links and
    images (and their definitions) are now resolved and treated the same
*   **‡** Available when using
    [`remark-gfm`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark-gfm)
*   **§** It’s possible to differentiate between heading based on the `level`
    prop
*   **‖** When using `rehype-raw` (see below), components for those elements
    can also be used (for example, `abbr` for
    `<abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr>`)
*   **¶** It’s possible to differentiate between lists based on the `ordered`
    prop
*   **​\*\*​** Wrap `ReactMarkdown` in a component instead

</details>

### Add `rehypePlugins`

We’ve added another plugin system:
[**rehype**](https://github.com/rehypejs/rehype).
It’s similar to remark (what we’re using for markdown) but for HTML.

There are many rehype plugins.
Some examples are
[`@mapbox/rehype-prism`](https://github.com/mapbox/rehype-prism)
(syntax highlighting with Prism),
[`rehype-katex`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark-math/tree/HEAD/packages/rehype-katex)
(rendering math with KaTeX), or
[`rehype-autolink-headings`](https://github.com/rehypejs/rehype-autolink-headings)
(adding links to headings).

See [List of plugins](https://github.com/rehypejs/rehype/blob/main/doc/plugins.md)
for more plugins.

<details>
<summary>Show example of feature</summary>

```jsx
import rehypeHighlight from 'rehype-highlight'

<Markdown rehypePlugins={[rehypeHighlight]}>{`~~~js
console.log(1)
~~~`}</Markdown>
```

</details>

### Remove buggy HTML in markdown parser

In a lot of cases, you should not use HTML in markdown: it’s most always unsafe.
And it defeats much of the purpose of this project (not relying on
`dangerouslySetInnerHTML`).

`react-markdown` used to have an opt-in HTML parser with a bunch of bugs.
As we now support rehype plugins, we can defer that work to a rehype plugin.
To support HTML in markdown with `react-markdown`, use
[`rehype-raw`](https://github.com/rehypejs/rehype-raw).
The `astPlugins` and `allowDangerousHtml` (previously called `escapeHtml`) props
are no longer needed and were removed.

When using `rehype-raw`, you should probably use
[`rehype-sanitize`](https://github.com/rehypejs/rehype-sanitize)
too.

<details>
<summary>Show example of needed change</summary>

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
import MarkdownWithHtml from 'react-markdown/with-html'

<MarkdownWithHtml>{`# Hello, <i>world</i>!`}</MarkdownWithHtml>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
import Markdown from 'react-markdown'
import rehypeRaw from 'rehype-raw'
import rehypeSanitize from 'rehype-sanitize'

<Markdown rehypePlugins={[rehypeRaw, rehypeSanitize]}>{`# Hello, <i>world</i>!`}</Markdown>
```

</details>

### Change `source` to `children`

Instead of passing a `source` pass `children` instead:

<details>
<summary>Show example of needed change</summary>

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
<Markdown source="some\nmarkdown"></Markdown>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown>{`some
markdown`}</Markdown>
```

Or (**also fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown children={`some
markdown`} />
```

</details>

### Replace `allowNode`, `allowedTypes`, and `disallowedTypes`

Similar to the `renderers` to `components` change, the filtering options
also changed from being based on markdown names towards being based on HTML
names: `allowNode` to `allowElement`, `allowedTypes` to `allowedElements`, and
`disallowedTypes` to `disallowedElements`.

<details>
<summary>Show example of needed change</summary>

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  // Skip images
  disallowedTypes={['image']}
>{`![alt text](./image.url)`}</Markdown>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  // Skip images
  disallowedElements={['img']}
>{`![alt text](./image.url)`}</Markdown>
```

***

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  // Skip h1
  allowNode={(node) => node.type !== 'heading' || node.depth !== 1}
>{`# main heading`}</Markdown>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  // Skip h1
  allowElement={(element) => element.tagName !== 'h1'}
>{`# main heading`}</Markdown>
```

</details>

### Change `includeNodeIndex` to `includeElementIndex`

Similar to the `renderers` to `components` change, this option to pass more info
to components also changed from being based on markdown to being based on HTML.

<details>
<summary>Show example of needed change</summary>

Before (**broken**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  includeNodeIndex={true}
  renderers={{
    paragraph({node, index, parentChildCount, ...props}) => <MyFancyParagraph {...props} />
  }}
>{`Some text`}</Markdown>
```

Now (**fixed**):

```jsx
<Markdown
  includeElementIndex={true}
  components={{
    p({node, index, siblingsCount, ...props}) => <MyFancyParagraph {...props} />
  }}
>{`Some text`}</Markdown>
```

</details>

### Change signature of `transformLinkUri`, `linkTarget`

The second parameter of these functions (to rewrite `href` on `a` or to define
`target` on `a`) are now [hast](https://github.com/syntax-tree/hast) (HTML AST)
instead of [mdast](https://github.com/syntax-tree/mdast) (markdown AST).

### Change signature of `transformImageUri`

The second parameter of this function was always `undefined` and the fourth was
the `alt` (`string`) on the image.
The second parameter is now that `alt`.

### Remove support for React 15, IE11

We now use ES2015 (such as `Object.assign`) and removed certain hacks to work
with React 15 and older.

## 5.0.2 - 2020-10-23

*   [`4dadaba`](https://github.com/remarkjs/react-markdown/commit/4dadaba)
    Fix to allow combining `allowedTypes`, `unwrapDisallowed` in types

## 5.0.1 - 2020-10-21

*   [`c3dc5ee`](https://github.com/remarkjs/react-markdown/commit/c3dc5ee)
    Fix to not crash on empty text nodes

## 5.0.0 - 2020-10-19

### BREAKING

#### Maintained by [unified](https://unifiedjs.com)

This project is now maintained by the unified collective, which also houses the
underlying tools used in `react-markdown`: hundreds of projects for working with
markdown and markup related things (including MDX).
We have cleaned the project: updated dependencies, improved
docs/tests/coverage/types, cleaned the issue tracker, and fixed a couple of
bugs, but otherwise *much should be the same*.

#### Upgrade `remark-parse`

The parser used in `react-markdown` has been upgraded to the latest version.
It is now 100% CommonMark compliant: that means it works the same as in other
places, such as Discourse, Reddit, Stack Overflow, and GitHub.
Note that GitHub does extend CommonMark: to match how Markdown works on GitHub,
use the [`remark-gfm`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark-gfm) plugin.

*   [`remark-parse@9.0.0`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark/releases/tag/remark-parse%409.0.0)
*   [`remark-parse@8.0.0`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark/releases/tag/remark-parse%408.0.0)
*   [`remark-parse@7.0.0`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark/releases/tag/remark-parse%407.0.0)
*   [`remark-parse@6.0.0`](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark/releases/tag/remark-parse%406.0.0)

#### New serializer property: `node`

A new `node` prop is passed to all non-tag/non-fragment renderers.
This contains the raw [mdast](https://github.com/syntax-tree/mdast) AST node,
which opens up a number of interesting possibilities.
The breaking change is for renderers which blindly spread their props to an
underlying component/tag.
For instance:

```jsx
<ReactMarkdown renderers={{link: props => <a {...props} />}} … />
```

Should now be written as:

```jsx
<ReactMarkdown renderers={{link: ({node, ...props}) => <a {...props} />}} … />
```

#### List/list item `tight` property replaced by `spread`

Previously, the `tight` property would hint as to whether or not list items
should be wrapped in paragraphs.
This logic has now been replaced by a new `spread` property, which behaves
slightly differently.

## 4.0.0 - 2018-10-03

### BREAKING

*   `text` is now a first-class node + renderer
    — if you are using `allowedNodes`, it needs to be included in this list.
    Since it is now a React component, it will be passed an object of props
    instead of the old approach where a string was passed.
    `children` will contain the actual text string.
*   On React >= 16.2, if no `className` prop is provided, a fragment will be
    used instead of a div.
    To always render a div, pass `'div'` as the `root` renderer.

### Notes

*   **FULL REWRITE**.
    Changed parser from CommonMark to Markdown.
    Big, breaking changes.
    See *BREAKING* below.

### Added

*   Table support!
    *   New types: `table`, `tableHead`, `tableBody`, `tableRow`, `tableCell`
*   New type: `delete` (`~~foo~~`)
*   New type: `imageReference`
*   New type: `linkReference`
*   New type: `definition`
*   Hacky, but basic support for React-native rendering of attributeless HTML
    nodes (`<kbd>`, `<sub>`, etc)

### BREAKING

*   Container props removed (`containerTagName`, `containerProps`), override
    `root` renderer instead
*   `softBreak` option removed.
    New solution will be added at some point in the future.
*   `escapeHtml` is now TRUE by default
*   `HtmlInline`/`HtmlBlock` are now named `html` (use `isBlock` prop to check\
    if inline or block)
*   Renderer names are camelcased and in certain cases, renamed.
    For instance:
    *   `Emph` => `emphasis`
    *   `Item` => `listItem`
    *   `Code` => `inlineCode`
    *   `CodeBlock` => `code`
    *   `linebreak`/`hardbreak` => `break`
*   All renderers: `literal` prop is now called `value`\* List renderer: `type`
    prop is now a boolean named `ordered` (`Bullet` => `false`, `Ordered` =>
    `true`)
*   `walker` prop removed.
    Code depending on this will have to be rewritten to use the `astPlugins`
    prop, which functions differently.
*   `allowNode` has new arguments (node, index, parent)
    — node has different props, see renderer props
*   `childBefore` and `childAfter` props removed.
    Use `root` renderer instead.
*   `parserOptions` removed (new parser, so the old options doesn’t make sense
    anymore)

## 2.5.1 - 2017-11-11

    (Espen Hovlandsdal)

## 2.4.0 - 2016-07-09

### Added

*   New `transformImageUri` option allows you to transform URIs for images
    (Petri Lehtinen)

## 2.3.0 - 2016-06-06

## Added

*   The `walker` instance is now passed to the `walker` callback function
    (Riku Rouvila)

## 2.2.0 - 2016-04-20

*   Add `childBefore`/`childAfter` options (Thomas Lindstrøm)

## 2.1.1 - 2016-03-25

*   Add `containerProps` option (Thomas Lindstrøm)

## 2.1.0 - 2016-03-12

### Changes

*   Join sibling text nodes into one text node (Espen Hovlandsdal)

## 2.0.1 - 2016-02-21

### Changed

*   Update `commonmark-react-renderer` dependency to latest version to add keys
    to all elements and simplify custom renderers

## 2.0.0 - 2016-02-21

### Changed

*   **Breaking change**: The renderer now requires Node 0.14 or higher.
    This is because the renderer uses stateless components internally.
*   **Breaking change**: `allowNode` now receives different properties in the
    options argument.
    See `README.md` for more details.
*   **Breaking change**: CommonMark has changed some type names.
    `Html` is now `HtmlInline`, `Header` is now `Heading` and `HorizontalRule`
    is now `ThematicBreak`.
    This affects the `allowedTypes` and `disallowedTypes` options.
*   **Breaking change**: A bug in the `allowedTypes`/`disallowedTypes` and
    `allowNode` options made them only applicable to certain types.
    In this version, all types are filtered, as expected.
*   **Breaking change**: Link URIs are now filtered through an XSS-filter by
    default, prefixing “dangerous” protocols such as `javascript:` with `x-`
    (eg: `javascript:alert('foo')` turns into `x-javascript:alert('foo')`).
    This can be overridden with the `transformLinkUri`-option.
    Pass `null` to disable the feature or a custom function to replace the
    built-in behaviour.

### Added

*   New `renderers` option allows you to customize which React component should
    be used for rendering given types.
    See `README.md` for more details.
    (Espen Hovlandsdal / Guillaume Plique)
*   New `unwrapDisallowed` option allows you to select if the contents of a
    disallowed node should be “unwrapped” (placed into the disallowed node
    position).
    For instance, setting this option to true and disallowing a link would still
    render the text of the link, instead of the whole link node and all it’s
    children disappearing.
    (Espen Hovlandsdal)
*   New `transformLinkUri` option allows you to transform URIs in links.
    By default, an XSS-filter is used, but you could also use this for use cases
    like transforming absolute to relative URLs, or similar.
    (Espen Hovlandsdal)

## 1.2.4 - 2016-01-28

### Changed

*   Rolled back dependencies because of breaking changes

## 1.2.3 - 2016-01-24

### Changed

*   Updated dependencies for both `commonmark` and `commonmark-react-parser` to
    work around an embarrassing oversight on my part.

## 1.2.2 - 2016-01-08

### Changed

*   Reverted change from 1.2.1 that uses the dist version.
    Instead, documentation is added that specified the need for `json-loader` to
    be enabled when using webpack.

## 1.2.1 - 2015-12-29

### Fixed

*   Use pre-built (dist version) of commonmark renderer in order to work around
    JSON-loader dependency.

## 1.2.0 - 2015-12-16

### Added

*   Added new `allowNode`-property.
    See README for details.

## 1.1.4 - 2015-12-14
