Offline version

[fredbt]

Hi there!

What would it take to use this library offline? Right now it needs to call the MathJax.js script remotely.

Thanks,
Fred

Do you know how to attach an external library as a plaintext into webview?

[calvinkei]

simplest way to just make it work is to copy paste the content of https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.0/MathJax.js to wrapMathjax, but not sure what's the best practice for this

[mrded]

It doesn't look possible to me. Even you embed MathJax.js, it still downloads additional fonts and extensions from the internet.

[mrded]

You can probably download whole MathJax lib into ./assets and share it to the webview via baseUrl.

@calvinkei why not require Mathjax as an npm dependency (from npmjs) and inject it in the WebView using the injectedJavaScript prop?

I'd be happy to give it a try and, if it works, make a PR over this weekend.

[mrded]

It's not as simple. Mathjax requires extra remote pluggins from they CDN. If you want to host it locally, you need to make a web server with these plugins, or build a version of Mathjax with all plugins included.

Oh, that's unfortunate. Thanks for clarifying.

Dear Mr @mrded , can you help me for this comment "You can probably download whole MathJax lib into ./assets and share it to the webview via baseUrl." I need Mathjax offline but can't.

[mrded]

@truongluuxuan I'm sorry, I'm not in a context of this problem any longer.

Hey @truongluuxuan were you able to load mathjax offline?

Hey @truongluuxuan were you able to load mathjax offline?

I don't know how to do that. I'm just wondering how can I run mathjax offline
