All optional parameters have default values (from
config.default.json). When the user does not provide them, the default values are used automatically.
3. Configuration generation
Generation logic:
-
Read the local
config.default.jsoncontent. -
Set
markdownFilePathto the article path provided by the user. -
Parameter Filling Decision Tree (Core Logic): For
prefix(prefix) andsuffix(suffix) and other optional parameters,muststrictly follow the following decision process:- Decide: Has the user explicitly specified the content for this field?
- 👉 Yes (YES)
- Perform action: Use the content provided by the user to override the corresponding field.
- Example: If the user says "write in the prefix: Hello everyone", then
config.jsonin"prefix": "大家好"。
- 👉 No (NO)
- Perform action:directly reuse
config.default.jsonthe original value indo notmake any modification or generation. - Prohibited:Absolutely prohibitedto automatically make up content just because the user did not say anything (such as automatically filling in "This article was generated with AI assistance").
- Prohibited:Absolutely prohibitedto arbitrarily clear the existing default values in
config.default.json.
- Perform action:directly reuse
- 👉 Yes (YES)
- Decide: Has the user explicitly specified the content for this field?
-
Convert
config.default.jsonthe relative path in<技能目录绝对路径>to an absolute path ( -
+ filename). Write to
config.json。
⚠️ Key formatting instructions:
When generating JSON content,strictly prohibitedtoprefix and suffix perform secondary escaping on the values of the fields.
Example:
Assume the user-providedprefixis"我是文章的前缀\n"
- ✅ Correct way(keep single backslash):
"prefix": "我是文章的前缀\n" - ❌ Incorrect way(generates double backslash):
"prefix": "我是文章的前缀\\n"
Path format instructions:
Paths in the configuration file must uniformly use forward slashes /:
- ✅ Correct:
"D:/software/wechat-publisher/cover.jpg" - ❌ Incorrect:
"D:\\software\\wechat-publisher\\cover.jpg"
config.json example:
{
"markdownFilePath": "D:/Documents/公众号教程/文章.md",
"title": "文章标题",
"theme": "blue",
"AUTHOR": "文章作者名称",
"prefix": "(此处应是用户指定的内容,或 config.default.json 的原值)",
"suffix": "(此处应是用户指定的内容,或 config.default.json 的原值)",
"APP_ID": "微信开发者平台的APP_ID",
"APP_SECRET": "微信开发者平台的APP_SECRET",
"coverFilePath": "D:/software/wechat-publisher/cover.jpg"
}
Configuration handling when publishing fails:
If publishing returns invalid appid or invalid appsecret error, prompt the user to provide the correct APP_ID and APP_SECRET, update config.json and then publish again.
Important note:
- No need to read the Markdown file content, the publishing script will automatically handle all content in the article (including images, formatting, etc.)
- No need to verify whether the image file exists, just ensure that
markdownFilePathpoints to the correct file path
4. Execute the script to publish the article to the official account
⚠️ Important: Parameters must be passed through the config.json file; do not pass --file/--app-id/--app-secret and other parameters directly on the command line!
Note: The terminal only passes the --config parameter, pointing to the generated config.json file.
⚠️ Must use an absolute path to execute the command(to avoid failure when switching directories across drives on Windows):
# 将 <技能目录> 替换为实际路径
node "<技能目录>/index.js" --config "<技能目录>/config.json"
# Windows 示例
node "C:/Users/YourName/.qoder/skills/wechat-publisher-skill/index.js" --config "C:/Users/YourName/.qoder/skills/wechat-publisher-skill/config.json"
# Mac/Linux 示例
node "/Users/yourname/.qoder/skills/wechat-publisher-skill/index.js" --config "/Users/yourname/.qoder/skills/wechat-publisher-skill/config.json"
❌ Incorrect example (do not do this):
# 相对路径在 Windows 跨盘符时可能失败
node index.js --config ./config.json
# 不要直接传递参数
node index.js --file xxx.md --app-id xxx --app-secret xxx
