Here's a dirty hack: insert a zero-width space somewhere inside (or around) that ---
to prevent the parser from interpreting it as a horizontal rule.
You can copy the char from here: https://qwerty.dev/whitespace/
In your fiddle that does seem to do the trick, and you no longer need to append #
.
Unfortunately, that doesn't work for my use-case; here is why:
My goal is to include YAML snippets in presentations (specifically, training materials) so that people can copy-paste them. If I put a zero-width space, it will be copy-pasted as well, and YAML parsers will fail on it, with very weird error messages. (Typically, they'll say that they couldn't find an expected colon, because the ---
followed by a zero-width space then becomes a key instead of a document separator.)
I'll keep looking! :)

Ah, that makes sense.
Sorry that I don't have the time now to help with this.
Hi @tripu
Would you mind if I try to prepare some solution for that problem?

@lukaszpiotrluczak:
I'm just a contributor here. Of course you're welcome to submit a PR! :+1:
Anyway, note that I'm working on #680, which involves upgrading marked
. And that change alone seems to fix quite a number of oddities in MD processing in Remark.
I did a quick test here pasting the MD code in your JSFiddle, and it looks fine. So, perhaps you prefer just to wait until I finish with my changes…
@tripu
Ok, it looks like upgrading marked
should fix this and maybe even add something I miss.
I will wait for you to complete and if the problem persist I will take a look on it.
Thanks!
Hi @tripu any news? :) How it is going with update?
@lukaszpiotrluczak, since you asked… I could use some help 😇
I have made several upgrades and changes on my own fork; see the diff here:
https://github.com/gnab/remark/compare/develop...tripu:remark:develop
Among others, I upgraded marked
.
Everything seems to work fine after my changes, except for the few tests about highlighting. Specifically:
I haven't understood yet what's the root of the issue.
Care to review?
/cc @gnab, in case you have some minutes to spare!
Hi!
Here is what I do:
I put a YAML document separator (
---
) within an indented triple-quote:Here is what I see instead:
The
---
disappears, the triple quote doesn't seem to be interpreted, and there is an horizontal line in the middle.it looks like this
- Same thing without the extra #: \```yaml key1: value1 --- key2: value2 \```Extra information:
Just in case GitHub formatting isn't super clear, here is a jsfiddle exhibiting the issue:

I haven't dived in the code yet so no idea how gnarly this is going to be 😅
