Configuration¶
When mermaid starts configuration is extracted to a configuration to be used for a diagram. There a 3 sources for configuration:
The default configuration
Overrides on the site level, set is set by the initialize call and will be applied for all diagrams in the site/app. The term for this is the siteConfig.
Directives - diagram authors can update select configuration parameters directly int he diagram code via directives and these are applied to the render config.
The render config is configuration that is used when rendering by applying these configurations.
Theme configuration¶
Starting mermaid¶
sequenceDiagram
Site->>mermaid: initialize
Site->>mermaid: content loaded
mermaid->>mermaidAPI: init
Initialize¶
Intialize call is calloed only once. It is called by the site integrator in order to override the default configuration on a site level.
configApi.reset¶
This method resets the configuration for a diagram to the site configuration, the configuration provided by the site integrator. Before each rendering of a diagram reset is called in the very beginning of render.
