Examples

Now let's take a closer look of Markdown component! We use different markdown syntaxes to complete this example.

If you hover your cursor to the first component that contains the penguin, you are able to see a tooltip pop up. And if you click that area, you can copy the first component. This is the copied markdown text:

<h1>Guess which link is the correct link of Olive Helps dev hub.</h1>
<h2>You only have a single chance!</h2>
<p><img src="https://d33wubrfki0l68.cloudfront.net/e7ed9fe4bafe46e275c807d63591f85f9ab246ba/e2d28/assets/images/tux.png" alt="Tux"/></p>
<p><strong>We have a brief description table for you:</strong></p>
<table><thead><tr><th style="text-align:left">People</th><th style="text-align:left">What they say</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="text-align:left">Josef:</td><td style="text-align:left">Link 3 is the correct one.</td></tr><tr><td style="text-align:left">Michael:</td><td style="text-align:left">Link 1 is not the correct one.</td></tr><tr><td style="text-align:left">Brett:</td><td style="text-align:left">They are all lying.</td></tr></tbody></table>
<p>Knowing that only one person is not lying and we only have 1 link that can direct you to Olive Helps, which one is the correct link?</p>
import { whisper } from '@oliveai/ldk';
import { MarkdownWhisperCopyMode, WhisperComponentType } from '@oliveai/ldk/dist/whisper/types';


const markdownSampleText = `
# Guess which link is the correct link of Olive Helps dev hub.
## You only have a single chance!

**We have a brief description table for you:**

| People | What they say |

| Josef:  | Link 3 is the correct one. |
| Michael:| Link 1 is not the correct one. |

Knowing that only one person is not lying and we only have 1 link that can direct you to Olive Helps, which one is the correct link? 


`;

const markdown = `
# Links:
[Link 1](# "A Link")

[Link 2](#)

[Link 3](https://www.oliveai.dev/)

export const markdownWhisper = async () => {
  await whisper.create({
    label: 'Markdown whisper',
    onClose: () => {
      console.debug('closed');
    },
    components: [
      {
        body: markdownSampleText,
        type: WhisperComponentType.Markdown,

      {
        body: markdown,

        onLinkClick: (error, linkName) => {
          console.info(`Received click on the link: ${JSON.stringify(linkName)}`);
          if (linkName === 'Link 1') {
            console.log('This is not the correct link.');
          } else if (linkName === 'Link 2') {
            console.log('This is not the correct link.');
          } else if (linkName === 'Link 3') {
            console.log(
              'Yes! This is the correct link! You are going to Olive Helps Dev Hub... ',
              );
          } else {
            if (error) {
              console.log(error.message);
            }
          }
        },
        tooltip: 'Link 3 is the right answer!',
      },
    ],
  });
}
