UserScript for Inline LaTeX Rendering in notion.so
- Render LaTeX at Startup (default two seconds latency for smoother experience but customizable)
- Render LaTeX at Keyup (default two seconds latency for smoother experience but customizable)
$ $as Default LaTeX Delimiter (customizable)
- Special thanks go to Evert Heylen!
-
- This project is influenced and motivated by his initial project, evertheylen/notion-inline-math.
- Script is intended only for web browswer use with UserScript extension, Violentmonkey.
-
- The script should work with other UserScript extentions as it is or with minimum changes though it has not been tested yet.
- Script does not change the content.
-
- It merely changes the display after the contents are loaded.
- For the script to work properly, you need at least one math block present in the page where you want to render inline LaTeX.
- This script is based on the script by Evert Heylen for my own math notes on notion.so.
-
- I made it available for public so that it would be useful to others.
-
- I meant no harm in writing this personal script.
-
- I cannot take responsibility for loss of data or other harms.
-
- So, even though the script only changes the display and it is harmless at my best knowledge, please use it at your own risk, especially with untested mobile installation/usage described below.
- Last but not least, this project/script is in no way affiliated nor sponsored by notion.so.
-
- Like features on Notion Hacks, this is a personal/community hack/workaround.
- Install Violentmonkey.
- Click on the extension icon and click plus icon. A new text editor window by extension will be opened in new tab.
- Copy/paste the script
notion-inline-latex.js. - Save and close the editor.
- Go to notion.so and enable the script if it has not been already.
- It should work on any notion.so page automatically through extension as long as
-
- the script is enabled in extension, and
-
- there exists at least one math block in the page where you want to render inline LaTeX.
- If you have any usage question, you can ask me on either:
- Note: The workaround below has never been tested or tried out. Just an idea for those of you adventurous. Use with extreme caution!!!
-
- Install a browser with plugin/extension support which has userscript plugin/extension available (For example, Opera with Tampermonkey).
-
- Use the script with that plugin/extension.
Duplicatable Sample Notion Page
- You need at least one math block present in the page where you want to render inline LaTeX.
- Render at startup will not work when the page is loaded dynamically within Notion. Quick fix is just click a neutral key like shift for render at keyup to pick up the keyup cue.
- Figure out a way to eliminate the need for the presence of math block for the script to work.
- Figure out how to avoid cursor shifting to the beginning of the block after each render.
- Small value for startUpWaitTime and keyUpWaitTime can make the script load improperly.
- Add delimiters as desired though delimiters other than default one have not been tested yet.
- Please start an issue if you find a bug or have any question.
- Please submit PR if you have any update to the project or would like to contribute. Thanks in advance!
