Release Notes

Added

  • Imported additional upstream fixtures from Cypress and package tests (requirement, gantt, ER, flowchart, sequence, state, class, quadrantchart, xychart, radar, kanban, architecture, block, mindmap, timeline) to expand SVG parity coverage.
  • Imported additional upstream fixtures from Mermaid's parser package tests (architecture, gitgraph, info, packet, pie) to expand SVG parity coverage.
  • Imported upstream HTML demo fixtures (flowchart, sequence, quadrantchart, sankey, xychart) to expand golden-driven parity coverage.

Fixed

  • Improved <foreignObject> readability fallback for raster outputs (PNG/JPG/PDF): remove the white text outline overlay and render a semi-transparent .labelBkg background when present (closer to upstream Mermaid defaults).
  • Reduced cross-platform SVG DOM drift in parity-root compares by snapping root style max-width and viewBox to a stable lattice.
  • Further reduced parity-root drift by bias-snapping root max-width and masking viewBox origin (x/y) while still tracking viewport size changes (w/h).
  • Block: aligned doublecircle SVG structure to match upstream Mermaid DOM output.
  • Aligned C4 sprite rendering with upstream Mermaid: only person/external_person emit <image> sprites.
  • ER: align Markdown formatting in entity labels even when the entity has no attributes.
  • Flowchart: preserve cyclic self-loop helper mid-edge labels (fixes missing self-loop label DOM).
  • Pie: support accTitle: / accDescr: on the header line (as accepted by upstream Mermaid parser tests).
  • import-upstream-pkg-tests: avoid failing the import when all candidates are skipped (still prints a skip summary).
  • import-upstream-pkg-tests --with-baselines: defer fixtures that fail upstream baseline generation / render as upstream error output under fixtures/_deferred/ (keeps the corpus without breaking parity gates).
  • Reduced churn during import-upstream-docs --with-baselines by skipping blank-info code fences that lack an explicit Mermaid diagram directive (e.g. flowchart / graph).
  • Reduced churn during import-upstream-cypress --with-baselines by deferring out-of-scope class fixtures (htmlLabels=false, layout=elk, look!=classic) under fixtures/_deferred/.
  • Improved import-upstream-pkg-tests Mermaid source extraction to handle "..." / '...' literals and template strings with ${...} interpolation.
  • Sequence: render diagram titles from metadata/frontmatter when the semantic model title is empty (aligns upstream HTML demos).
  • Sequence: adjusted wrapped note line breaks to match upstream Mermaid wrapLabel(...) behavior (11.12.3 baselines).
  • QuadrantChart: derive default theme colors from themeVariables (including hsl(...)/hex parsing) to match upstream theme behavior.

Changed

  • Refreshed README showcase renders after parity updates (architecture/mindmap/sankey/gantt).
  • CI: run parity-root SVG DOM comparisons as a non-blocking check on Ubuntu (keeps parity as the gate).
  • Documented that the root viewport override baselines track Mermaid 11.12.3 (override module filenames still use the historical *_11_12_2.rs suffix).
  • Updated upstream Mermaid baselines to 11.12.3 and refreshed fixtures/upstream-svgs/**.
  • import-upstream-html: flowchart fixtures containing $$...$$ math labels are imported as *_parser_only_katex (kept for parser/layout coverage, excluded from SVG DOM parity gates until KaTeX HTML label parity is implemented).
  • Deferred upstream HTML treemap demos that render as upstream error output under fixtures/_deferred/ (avoid permanently failing parity gates).

Removed

  • Removed mermaid-rs-renderer (mmdr_) fixtures and baselines from this repository; fixtures are now sourced only from upstream Mermaid.
