API

toc(node[, options])

Generate a Table of Contents from a Markdown document.

• If specified, looks for the first heading containing the heading option (case insensitive, supports alt/title attributes for links and images too), and returns a table of contents for all following headings.

• If no heading is specified, creates a table of contents for all headings in node.

Links to headings are based on GitHub’s style. Only top-level headings (those not in blockquotes or lists), are used. The given node is not modified.

options

• heading (string?) — Heading to look for, wrapped in new RegExp('^(' + value + ')$', 'i');

• maxDepth (number?, default: 6) — Maximum heading depth to include in the table of contents, This is inclusive, thus, when set to 3, level three headings, are included (those with three hashes, ###);

• tight (boolean?, default: false) — Whether to compile list-items tightly.

Returns

An object with the following properties:

• index (number?) — Position of the heading in node. -1 if no heading was found, null if no heading was given;

• endIndex (number?) — Position of the last node after heading before the TOC starts. -1 if no heading was found, null if no heading was given, same as index if there are no nodes between heading and the first heading in the TOC;

• map (Node?) — List node representing the generated table of contents. null if no table of contents could be created, either because no heading didn’t exist, or no following headings were found.
