Customizing the rendering process

The markdown given to the x-markdown and MarkdownRenderer will be converted by the class specified in the renderer_class value of the markdown config file.

You can change this value to a class of your own. We highlight recommend that your class extends the default Spatie\LaravelMarkdown\MarkdownRenderer class. This default class is organised using easy to override methods.

Here's an example. If you want to customize the environment of the league/commonmark package that is used under the hood, override the configureCommonMarkEnvironment method.

use League\CommonMark\Environment\EnvironmentBuilderInterface;
use Spatie\LaravelMarkdown\MarkdownRenderer;

class MyCustomRenderer extends MarkdownRenderer
{
    public function configureCommonMarkEnvironment(EnvironmentBuilderInterface $environment) : void
    {
        parent::configureCommonMarkEnvironment($environment);
        
        // customize the `$environment` here.
    }
}
