## Installation

Install the plugin using `pip`:

```bash
pip install mkdocs-import-statement-plugin
```

Next, add the following lines to your `mkdocs.yml`:

```yml
plugins:
  - search
  - import-statement
```

> If you have no `plugins` entry in your config file yet, you'll likely also want to add the `search` plugin. MkDocs enables it by default if there is no `plugins` entry set.

## Usage

In your markdown documents you can describe as following.

```text
@import "file"
```

When you use MkDocs, this plugin will replace these import statements appropriately depending on the extension.

### Image file

The import statement is replaced as following.

```markdown
![](file)
```

If there are `{}` options after the import statement, that statement will be replaced with a `<img>` tag.

For example,

```text
@import "file" {width="640" height="480"}
```

is converted to as follwoing.

```html
<img src="file" width="640" height="480">
```

Where the image file path is relative to the markdown file.

### Table file

The import statement is replaced with a Markdown table that expands the contents of the specified file.

For example, when the following CSV file is as following.

```csv
A1,B1,C1
A2,B2,C2
A3,B3,C3
```

This replaced to as following.

```markdown
| A1 | B1 | C1 |
| :- | :- | :- |
| A2 | B2 | C2 |
| A3 | B3 | C3 |
```

### JavaScript file

The import statement is replaced with `<script>` tag like as following.

```html
<script type="text/javascript" src="file"></script>
```

### Markdown file

The import statement is replaced with the contents of the specified file and the replacement is recursively processed.

### Text file

The import statement is replaced with the contents of the specified file.

### Comment file

The import statement is replaced by comment blocks of the contents of the specified file.
