mdbook-typst
mdbook-typst
is a backend for mdBook. The backend converts the book to Typst markup and can output any format Typst can (currently pdf
, png
, svg
, and raw Typst markup).
Usage
First, install the Typst cli:
cargo install --git https://github.com/typst/typst
Next, install mdbook-typst
(this project):
cargo install mdbook-typst
Finally, add an entry to your book.toml:
[output.typst]
By default mdbook-typst
will output raw Typst markup to book/typst/book.typst
.
Pdf and other formats
Pdf and other formats can be output instead of raw Typst markup. In your book.toml set the format
value of the output
config section:
[output.typst.output]
format = "pdf"
By default mdbook-typst
will output to book/typst/book.[format]
.
Other configuration
mdbook-typst
is fairly configurable. Check out the configuration code for a complete list of options.
If you want more control, consider creating your own formatter and/or preprocessing the book using the pullup project.
