From ec46692cf5c4d5e22950bc8e7d14cb0ec327fb87 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Waylan Limberg Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2012 09:35:40 -0500 Subject: Rename docs/*.md => docs/*.txt The documentation uses features of Python-Markdown that are not supported on GitHub and it's better to get a source view of the docs anyway. For example, that way comments and bug reports can reference a specific line of a file. Of course, it makes sense for Github to render the README, so that is left with the `.md` file extension. --- docs/extensions/abbreviations.md | 59 ---- docs/extensions/abbreviations.txt | 59 ++++ docs/extensions/api.md | 612 --------------------------------- docs/extensions/api.txt | 612 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ docs/extensions/attr_list.md | 80 ----- docs/extensions/attr_list.txt | 80 +++++ docs/extensions/code_hilite.md | 126 ------- docs/extensions/code_hilite.txt | 126 +++++++ docs/extensions/definition_lists.md | 61 ---- docs/extensions/definition_lists.txt | 61 ++++ docs/extensions/extra.md | 48 --- docs/extensions/extra.txt | 48 +++ docs/extensions/fenced_code_blocks.md | 69 ---- docs/extensions/fenced_code_blocks.txt | 69 ++++ docs/extensions/footnotes.md | 68 ---- docs/extensions/footnotes.txt | 68 ++++ docs/extensions/header_id.md | 111 ------ docs/extensions/header_id.txt | 111 ++++++ docs/extensions/html_tidy.md | 34 -- docs/extensions/html_tidy.txt | 34 ++ docs/extensions/index.md | 63 ---- docs/extensions/index.txt | 63 ++++ docs/extensions/meta_data.md | 94 ----- docs/extensions/meta_data.txt | 94 +++++ docs/extensions/nl2br.md | 25 -- docs/extensions/nl2br.txt | 25 ++ docs/extensions/rss.md | 41 --- docs/extensions/rss.txt | 41 +++ docs/extensions/sane_lists.md | 81 ----- docs/extensions/sane_lists.txt | 81 +++++ docs/extensions/smart_strong.md | 37 -- docs/extensions/smart_strong.txt | 37 ++ docs/extensions/tables.md | 58 ---- docs/extensions/tables.txt | 58 ++++ docs/extensions/toc.md | 56 --- docs/extensions/toc.txt | 56 +++ docs/extensions/wikilinks.md | 150 -------- docs/extensions/wikilinks.txt | 150 ++++++++ 38 files changed, 1873 insertions(+), 1873 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/abbreviations.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/abbreviations.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/api.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/api.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/attr_list.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/attr_list.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/code_hilite.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/code_hilite.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/definition_lists.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/definition_lists.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/extra.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/extra.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/fenced_code_blocks.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/fenced_code_blocks.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/footnotes.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/footnotes.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/header_id.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/header_id.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/html_tidy.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/html_tidy.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/index.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/index.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/meta_data.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/meta_data.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/nl2br.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/nl2br.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/rss.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/rss.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/sane_lists.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/sane_lists.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/smart_strong.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/smart_strong.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/tables.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/tables.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/toc.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/toc.txt delete mode 100644 docs/extensions/wikilinks.md create mode 100644 docs/extensions/wikilinks.txt (limited to 'docs/extensions') diff --git a/docs/extensions/abbreviations.md b/docs/extensions/abbreviations.md deleted file mode 100644 index fa38f50..0000000 --- a/docs/extensions/abbreviations.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,59 +0,0 @@ -title: Abbreviation Extension -prev_title: Extra Extension -prev_url: extra.html -next_title: Attribute List Extension -next_url: attr_list.html - -Abbreviations -============= - -Summary -------- - -The Markdown Abbreviation Extension adds the ability to define abbreviations. -Specifically, any defined abbreviation is wrapped in an `` tag. - -The Abbreviation extension is included in the standard Markdown library. - -Syntax ------- - -Abbreviations are defined using the syntax established in -[PHP Markdown Extra][php]. - -[php]: http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/#abbr - -Thus, the following text (taken from the above referenced PHP documentation): - - The HTML specification - is maintained by the W3C. - - *[HTML]: Hyper Text Markup Language - *[W3C]: World Wide Web Consortium - -will be rendered like so: - -

The ``run`` method of -each Preprocessor will be passed the entire source text as a list of Unicode -strings. Each string will contain one line of text. The ``run`` method should -return either that list, or an altered list of Unicode strings. - -A pseudo example: - - from markdown.preprocessors import Preprocessor - - class MyPreprocessor(Preprocessor): - def run(self, lines): - new_lines = [] - for line in lines: - m = MYREGEX.match(line) - if m: - # do stuff - else: - new_lines.append(line) - return new_lines - -Inline Patterns {: #inlinepatterns } ------------------------------------- - -Inline Patterns implement the inline HTML element syntax for Markdown such as -``*emphasis*`` or ``[links](http://example.com)``. Pattern objects should be -instances of classes that inherit from ``markdown.inlinepatterns.Pattern`` or -one of its children. Each pattern object uses a single regular expression and -must have the following methods: - -* **``getCompiledRegExp()``**: - - Returns a compiled regular expression. - -* **``handleMatch(m)``**: - - Accepts a match object and returns an ElementTree element of a plain - Unicode string. - -Note that any regular expression returned by ``getCompiledRegExp`` must capture -the whole block. Therefore, they should all start with ``r'^(.*?)'`` and end -with ``r'(.*?)!'``. When using the default ``getCompiledRegExp()`` method -provided in the ``Pattern`` you can pass in a regular expression without that -and ``getCompiledRegExp`` will wrap your expression for you and set the -`re.DOTALL` and `re.UNICODE` flags. This means that the first group of your -match will be ``m.group(2)`` as ``m.group(1)`` will match everything before the -pattern. - -For an example, consider this simplified emphasis pattern: - - from markdown.inlinepatterns import Pattern - from markdown.util import etree - - class EmphasisPattern(Pattern): - def handleMatch(self, m): - el = etree.Element('em') - el.text = m.group(3) - return el - -As discussed in [Integrating Your Code Into Markdown][], an instance of this -class will need to be provided to Markdown. That instance would be created -like so: - - # an oversimplified regex - MYPATTERN = r'\*([^*]+)\*' - # pass in pattern and create instance - emphasis = EmphasisPattern(MYPATTERN) - -Actually it would not be necessary to create that pattern (and not just because -a more sophisticated emphasis pattern already exists in Markdown). The fact is, -that example pattern is not very DRY. A pattern for `**strong**` text would -be almost identical, with the exception that it would create a 'strong' element. -Therefore, Markdown provides a number of generic pattern classes that can -provide some common functionality. For example, both emphasis and strong are -implemented with separate instances of the ``SimpleTagPettern`` listed below. -Feel free to use or extend any of the Pattern classes found at `markdown.inlinepatterns`. - -**Generic Pattern Classes** - -* **``SimpleTextPattern(pattern)``**: - - Returns simple text of ``group(2)`` of a ``pattern``. - -* **``SimpleTagPattern(pattern, tag)``**: - - Returns an element of type "`tag`" with a text attribute of ``group(3)`` - of a ``pattern``. ``tag`` should be a string of a HTML element (i.e.: 'em'). - -* **``SubstituteTagPattern(pattern, tag)``**: - - Returns an element of type "`tag`" with no children or text (i.e.: 'br'). - -There may be other Pattern classes in the Markdown source that you could extend -or use as well. Read through the source and see if there is anything you can -use. You might even get a few ideas for different approaches to your specific -situation. - -Treeprocessors {: #treeprocessors } ------------------------------------ - -Treeprocessors manipulate an ElemenTree object after it has passed through the -core BlockParser. This is where additional manipulation of the tree takes -place. Additionally, the InlineProcessor is a Treeprocessor which steps through -the tree and runs the InlinePatterns on the text of each Element in the tree. - -A Treeprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.treeprocessors.Treeprocessor``, -over-ride the ``run`` method which takes one argument ``root`` (an Elementree -object) and returns either that root element or a modified root element. - -A pseudo example: - - from markdown.treprocessors import Treeprocessor - - class MyTreeprocessor(Treeprocessor): - def run(self, root): - #do stuff - return my_modified_root - -For specifics on manipulating the ElementTree, see -[Working with the ElementTree][] below. - -Postprocessors {: #postprocessors } ------------------------------------ - -Postprocessors manipulate the document after the ElementTree has been -serialized into a string. Postprocessors should be used to work with the -text just before output. - -A Postprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.postprocessors.Postprocessor`` -and over-ride the ``run`` method which takes one argument ``text`` and returns -a Unicode string. - -Postprocessors are run after the ElementTree has been serialized back into -Unicode text. For example, this may be an appropriate place to add a table of -contents to a document: - - from markdown.postprocessors import Postprocessor - - class TocPostprocessor(Postprocessor): - def run(self, text): - return MYMARKERRE.sub(MyToc, text) - -BlockParser {: #blockparser } ------------------------------ - -Sometimes, pre/tree/postprocessors and Inline Patterns aren't going to do what -you need. Perhaps you want a new type of block type that needs to be integrated -into the core parsing. In such a situation, you can add/change/remove -functionality of the core ``BlockParser``. The BlockParser is composed of a -number of Blockproccessors. The BlockParser steps through each block of text -(split by blank lines) and passes each block to the appropriate Blockprocessor. -That Blockprocessor parses the block and adds it to the ElementTree. The -[Definition Lists][] extension would be a good example of an extension that -adds/modifies Blockprocessors. - -A Blockprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.blockprocessors.BlockProcessor`` -and implement both the ``test`` and ``run`` methods. - -The ``test`` method is used by BlockParser to identify the type of block. -Therefore the ``test`` method must return a boolean value. If the test returns -``True``, then the BlockParser will call that Blockprocessor's ``run`` method. -If it returns ``False``, the BlockParser will move on to the next -BlockProcessor. - -The **``test``** method takes two arguments: - -* **``parent``**: The parent etree Element of the block. This can be useful as - the block may need to be treated differently if it is inside a list, for - example. - -* **``block``**: A string of the current block of text. The test may be a - simple string method (such as ``block.startswith(some_text)``) or a complex - regular expression. - -The **``run``** method takes two arguments: - -* **``parent``**: A pointer to the parent etree Element of the block. The run - method will most likely attach additional nodes to this parent. Note that - nothing is returned by the method. The Elementree object is altered in place. - -* **``blocks``**: A list of all remaining blocks of the document. Your run - method must remove (pop) the first block from the list (which it altered in - place - not returned) and parse that block. You may find that a block of text - legitimately contains multiple block types. Therefore, after processing the - first type, your processor can insert the remaining text into the beginning - of the ``blocks`` list for future parsing. - -Please be aware that a single block can span multiple text blocks. For example, -The official Markdown syntax rules state that a blank line does not end a -Code Block. If the next block of text is also indented, then it is part of -the previous block. Therefore, the BlockParser was specifically designed to -address these types of situations. If you notice the ``CodeBlockProcessor``, -in the core, you will note that it checks the last child of the ``parent``. -If the last child is a code block (``
...
``), then it -appends that block to the previous code block rather than creating a new -code block. - -Each BlockProcessor has the following utility methods available: - -* **``lastChild(parent)``**: - - Returns the last child of the given etree Element or ``None`` if it had no - children. - -* **``detab(text)``**: - - Removes one level of indent (four spaces by default) from the front of each - line of the given text string. - -* **``looseDetab(text, level)``**: - - Removes "level" levels of indent (defaults to 1) from the front of each line - of the given text string. However, this methods allows secondary lines to - not be indented as does some parts of the Markdown syntax. - -Each BlockProcessor also has a pointer to the containing BlockParser instance at -``self.parser``, which can be used to check or alter the state of the parser. -The BlockParser tracks it's state in a stack at ``parser.state``. The state -stack is an instance of the ``State`` class. - -**``State``** is a subclass of ``list`` and has the additional methods: - -* **``set(state)``**: - - Set a new state to string ``state``. The new state is appended to the end - of the stack. - -* **``reset()``**: - - Step back one step in the stack. The last state at the end is removed from - the stack. - -* **``isstate(state)``**: - - Test that the top (current) level of the stack is of the given string - ``state``. - -Note that to ensure that the state stack doesn't become corrupted, each time a -state is set for a block, that state *must* be reset when the parser finishes -parsing that block. - -An instance of the **``BlockParser``** is found at ``Markdown.parser``. -``BlockParser`` has the following methods: - -* **``parseDocument(lines)``**: - - Given a list of lines, an ElementTree object is returned. This should be - passed an entire document and is the only method the ``Markdown`` class - calls directly. - -* **``parseChunk(parent, text)``**: - - Parses a chunk of markdown text composed of multiple blocks and attaches - those blocks to the ``parent`` Element. The ``parent`` is altered in place - and nothing is returned. Extensions would most likely use this method for - block parsing. - -* **``parseBlocks(parent, blocks)``**: - - Parses a list of blocks of text and attaches those blocks to the ``parent`` - Element. The ``parent`` is altered in place and nothing is returned. This - method will generally only be used internally to recursively parse nested - blocks of text. - -While is is not recommended, an extension could subclass or completely replace -the ``BlockParser``. The new class would have to provide the same public API. -However, be aware that other extensions may expect the core parser provided -and will not work with such a drastically different parser. - -Working with the ElementTree {: #working_with_et } --------------------------------------------------- - -As mentioned, the Markdown parser converts a source document to an -[ElementTree][] object before serializing that back to Unicode text. -Markdown has provided some helpers to ease that manipulation within the context -of the Markdown module. - -First, to get access to the ElementTree module import ElementTree from -``markdown`` rather than importing it directly. This will ensure you are using -the same version of ElementTree as markdown. The module is found at -``markdown.util.etree`` within Markdown. - - from markdown.util import etree - -``markdown.util.etree`` tries to import ElementTree from any known location, -first as a standard library module (from ``xml.etree`` in Python 2.5), then as -a third party package (``Elementree``). In each instance, ``cElementTree`` is -tried first, then ``ElementTree`` if the faster C implementation is not -available on your system. - -Sometimes you may want text inserted into an element to be parsed by -[InlinePatterns][]. In such a situation, simply insert the text as you normally -would and the text will be automatically run through the InlinePatterns. -However, if you do *not* want some text to be parsed by InlinePatterns, -then insert the text as an ``AtomicString``. - - from markdown.util import AtomicString - some_element.text = AtomicString(some_text) - -Here's a basic example which creates an HTML table (note that the contents of -the second cell (``td2``) will be run through InlinePatterns latter): - - table = etree.Element("table") - table.set("cellpadding", "2") # Set cellpadding to 2 - tr = etree.SubElement(table, "tr") # Add child tr to table - td1 = etree.SubElement(tr, "td") # Add child td1 to tr - td1.text = markdown.AtomicString("Cell content") # Add plain text content - td2 = etree.SubElement(tr, "td") # Add second td to tr - td2.text = "*text* with **inline** formatting." # Add markup text - table.tail = "Text after table" # Add text after table - -You can also manipulate an existing tree. Consider the following example which -adds a ``class`` attribute to ```` elements: - - def set_link_class(self, element): - for child in element: - if child.tag == "a": - child.set("class", "myclass") #set the class attribute - set_link_class(child) # run recursively on children - -For more information about working with ElementTree see the ElementTree -[Documentation](http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm) -([Python Docs](http://docs.python.org/lib/module-xml.etree.ElementTree.html)). - -Integrating Your Code Into Markdown {: #integrating_into_markdown } -------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Once you have the various pieces of your extension built, you need to tell -Markdown about them and ensure that they are run in the proper sequence. -Markdown accepts a ``Extension`` instance for each extension. Therefore, you -will need to define a class that extends ``markdown.extensions.Extension`` and -over-rides the ``extendMarkdown`` method. Within this class you will manage -configuration options for your extension and attach the various processors and -patterns to the Markdown instance. - -It is important to note that the order of the various processors and patterns -matters. For example, if we replace ``http://...`` links with ```` elements, -and *then* try to deal with inline html, we will end up with a mess. -Therefore, the various types of processors and patterns are stored within an -instance of the Markdown class in [OrderedDict][]s. Your ``Extension`` class -will need to manipulate those OrderedDicts appropriately. You may insert -instances of your processors and patterns into the appropriate location in an -OrderedDict, remove a built-in instance, or replace a built-in instance with -your own. - -### extendMarkdown {: #extendmarkdown } - -The ``extendMarkdown`` method of a ``markdown.extensions.Extension`` class -accepts two arguments: - -* **``md``**: - - A pointer to the instance of the Markdown class. You should use this to - access the [OrderedDict][]s of processors and patterns. They are found - under the following attributes: - - * ``md.preprocessors`` - * ``md.inlinePatterns`` - * ``md.parser.blockprocessors`` - * ``md.treepreprocessors`` - * ``md.postprocessors`` - - Some other things you may want to access in the markdown instance are: - - * ``md.htmlStash`` - * ``md.output_formats`` - * ``md.set_output_format()`` - * ``md.registerExtension()`` - * ``md.html_replacement_text`` - * ``md.tab_length`` - * ``md.enable_attributes`` - * ``md.smart_emphasis`` - -* **``md_globals``**: - - Contains all the various global variables within the markdown module. - -Of course, with access to those items, theoretically you have the option to -changing anything through various [monkey_patching][] techniques. However, you -should be aware that the various undocumented or private parts of markdown -may change without notice and your monkey_patches may break with a new release. -Therefore, what you really should be doing is inserting processors and patterns -into the markdown pipeline. Consider yourself warned. - -[monkey_patching]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_patch - -A simple example: - - from markdown.extensions import Extension - - class MyExtension(Extension): - def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals): - # Insert instance of 'mypattern' before 'references' pattern - md.inlinePatterns.add('mypattern', MyPattern(md), '``) followed by an existing key (i.e.: - ``">somekey"``) inserts that item after the existing key. - -Consider the following example: - - >>> from markdown.odict import OrderedDict - >>> od = OrderedDict() - >>> od['one'] = 1 # The same as: od.add('one', 1, '_begin') - >>> od['three'] = 3 # The same as: od.add('three', 3, '>one') - >>> od['four'] = 4 # The same as: od.add('four', 4, '_end') - >>> od.items() - [("one", 1), ("three", 3), ("four", 4)] - -Note that when building an OrderedDict in order, the extra features of the -``add`` method offer no real value and are not necessary. However, when -manipulating an existing OrderedDict, ``add`` can be very helpful. So let's -insert another item into the OrderedDict. - - >>> od.add('two', 2, '>one') # Insert after 'one' - >>> od.values() - [1, 2, 3, 4] - -Now let's insert another item. - - >>> od.add('twohalf', 2.5, '>> od.keys() - ["one", "two", "twohalf", "three", "four"] - -Note that we also could have set the location of "twohalf" to be 'after two' -(i.e.: ``'>two'``). However, it's unlikely that you will have control over the -order in which extensions will be loaded, and this could affect the final -sorted order of an OrderedDict. For example, suppose an extension adding -'twohalf' in the above examples was loaded before a separate extension which -adds 'two'. You may need to take this into consideration when adding your -extension components to the various markdown OrderedDicts. - -Once an OrderedDict is created, the items are available via key: - - MyNode = od['somekey'] - -Therefore, to delete an existing item: - - del od['somekey'] - -To change the value of an existing item (leaving location unchanged): - - od['somekey'] = MyNewObject() - -To change the location of an existing item: - - t.link('somekey', ' output.txt - -Note that parameters should always be assumed to be set to string -values, and should be converted at run time. For example: - - i = int(self.getConfig("SOME_PARAM")) - -### makeExtension {: #makeextension } - -Each extension should ideally be placed in its own module starting -with the ``mdx_`` prefix (e.g. ``mdx_footnotes.py``). The module must -provide a module-level function called ``makeExtension`` that takes -an optional parameter consisting of a dictionary of configuration over-rides -and returns an instance of the extension. An example from the footnote -extension: - - def makeExtension(configs=None) : - return FootnoteExtension(configs=configs) - -By following the above example, when Markdown is passed the name of your -extension as a string (i.e.: ``'footnotes'``), it will automatically import -the module and call the ``makeExtension`` function initiating your extension. - -You may have noted that the extensions packaged with Python-Markdown do not -use the ``mdx_`` prefix in their module names. This is because they are all -part of the ``markdown.extensions`` package. Markdown will first try to import -from ``markdown.extensions.extname`` and upon failure, ``mdx_extname``.

The ``run`` method of +each Preprocessor will be passed the entire source text as a list of Unicode +strings. Each string will contain one line of text. The ``run`` method should +return either that list, or an altered list of Unicode strings. + +A pseudo example: + + from markdown.preprocessors import Preprocessor + + class MyPreprocessor(Preprocessor): + def run(self, lines): + new_lines = [] + for line in lines: + m = MYREGEX.match(line) + if m: + # do stuff + else: + new_lines.append(line) + return new_lines + +Inline Patterns {: #inlinepatterns } +------------------------------------ + +Inline Patterns implement the inline HTML element syntax for Markdown such as +``*emphasis*`` or ``[links](http://example.com)``. Pattern objects should be +instances of classes that inherit from ``markdown.inlinepatterns.Pattern`` or +one of its children. Each pattern object uses a single regular expression and +must have the following methods: + +* **``getCompiledRegExp()``**: + + Returns a compiled regular expression. + +* **``handleMatch(m)``**: + + Accepts a match object and returns an ElementTree element of a plain + Unicode string. + +Note that any regular expression returned by ``getCompiledRegExp`` must capture +the whole block. Therefore, they should all start with ``r'^(.*?)'`` and end +with ``r'(.*?)!'``. When using the default ``getCompiledRegExp()`` method +provided in the ``Pattern`` you can pass in a regular expression without that +and ``getCompiledRegExp`` will wrap your expression for you and set the +`re.DOTALL` and `re.UNICODE` flags. This means that the first group of your +match will be ``m.group(2)`` as ``m.group(1)`` will match everything before the +pattern. + +For an example, consider this simplified emphasis pattern: + + from markdown.inlinepatterns import Pattern + from markdown.util import etree + + class EmphasisPattern(Pattern): + def handleMatch(self, m): + el = etree.Element('em') + el.text = m.group(3) + return el + +As discussed in [Integrating Your Code Into Markdown][], an instance of this +class will need to be provided to Markdown. That instance would be created +like so: + + # an oversimplified regex + MYPATTERN = r'\*([^*]+)\*' + # pass in pattern and create instance + emphasis = EmphasisPattern(MYPATTERN) + +Actually it would not be necessary to create that pattern (and not just because +a more sophisticated emphasis pattern already exists in Markdown). The fact is, +that example pattern is not very DRY. A pattern for `**strong**` text would +be almost identical, with the exception that it would create a 'strong' element. +Therefore, Markdown provides a number of generic pattern classes that can +provide some common functionality. For example, both emphasis and strong are +implemented with separate instances of the ``SimpleTagPettern`` listed below. +Feel free to use or extend any of the Pattern classes found at `markdown.inlinepatterns`. + +**Generic Pattern Classes** + +* **``SimpleTextPattern(pattern)``**: + + Returns simple text of ``group(2)`` of a ``pattern``. + +* **``SimpleTagPattern(pattern, tag)``**: + + Returns an element of type "`tag`" with a text attribute of ``group(3)`` + of a ``pattern``. ``tag`` should be a string of a HTML element (i.e.: 'em'). + +* **``SubstituteTagPattern(pattern, tag)``**: + + Returns an element of type "`tag`" with no children or text (i.e.: 'br'). + +There may be other Pattern classes in the Markdown source that you could extend +or use as well. Read through the source and see if there is anything you can +use. You might even get a few ideas for different approaches to your specific +situation. + +Treeprocessors {: #treeprocessors } +----------------------------------- + +Treeprocessors manipulate an ElemenTree object after it has passed through the +core BlockParser. This is where additional manipulation of the tree takes +place. Additionally, the InlineProcessor is a Treeprocessor which steps through +the tree and runs the InlinePatterns on the text of each Element in the tree. + +A Treeprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.treeprocessors.Treeprocessor``, +over-ride the ``run`` method which takes one argument ``root`` (an Elementree +object) and returns either that root element or a modified root element. + +A pseudo example: + + from markdown.treprocessors import Treeprocessor + + class MyTreeprocessor(Treeprocessor): + def run(self, root): + #do stuff + return my_modified_root + +For specifics on manipulating the ElementTree, see +[Working with the ElementTree][] below. + +Postprocessors {: #postprocessors } +----------------------------------- + +Postprocessors manipulate the document after the ElementTree has been +serialized into a string. Postprocessors should be used to work with the +text just before output. + +A Postprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.postprocessors.Postprocessor`` +and over-ride the ``run`` method which takes one argument ``text`` and returns +a Unicode string. + +Postprocessors are run after the ElementTree has been serialized back into +Unicode text. For example, this may be an appropriate place to add a table of +contents to a document: + + from markdown.postprocessors import Postprocessor + + class TocPostprocessor(Postprocessor): + def run(self, text): + return MYMARKERRE.sub(MyToc, text) + +BlockParser {: #blockparser } +----------------------------- + +Sometimes, pre/tree/postprocessors and Inline Patterns aren't going to do what +you need. Perhaps you want a new type of block type that needs to be integrated +into the core parsing. In such a situation, you can add/change/remove +functionality of the core ``BlockParser``. The BlockParser is composed of a +number of Blockproccessors. The BlockParser steps through each block of text +(split by blank lines) and passes each block to the appropriate Blockprocessor. +That Blockprocessor parses the block and adds it to the ElementTree. The +[Definition Lists][] extension would be a good example of an extension that +adds/modifies Blockprocessors. + +A Blockprocessor should inherit from ``markdown.blockprocessors.BlockProcessor`` +and implement both the ``test`` and ``run`` methods. + +The ``test`` method is used by BlockParser to identify the type of block. +Therefore the ``test`` method must return a boolean value. If the test returns +``True``, then the BlockParser will call that Blockprocessor's ``run`` method. +If it returns ``False``, the BlockParser will move on to the next +BlockProcessor. + +The **``test``** method takes two arguments: + +* **``parent``**: The parent etree Element of the block. This can be useful as + the block may need to be treated differently if it is inside a list, for + example. + +* **``block``**: A string of the current block of text. The test may be a + simple string method (such as ``block.startswith(some_text)``) or a complex + regular expression. + +The **``run``** method takes two arguments: + +* **``parent``**: A pointer to the parent etree Element of the block. The run + method will most likely attach additional nodes to this parent. Note that + nothing is returned by the method. The Elementree object is altered in place. + +* **``blocks``**: A list of all remaining blocks of the document. Your run + method must remove (pop) the first block from the list (which it altered in + place - not returned) and parse that block. You may find that a block of text + legitimately contains multiple block types. Therefore, after processing the + first type, your processor can insert the remaining text into the beginning + of the ``blocks`` list for future parsing. + +Please be aware that a single block can span multiple text blocks. For example, +The official Markdown syntax rules state that a blank line does not end a +Code Block. If the next block of text is also indented, then it is part of +the previous block. Therefore, the BlockParser was specifically designed to +address these types of situations. If you notice the ``CodeBlockProcessor``, +in the core, you will note that it checks the last child of the ``parent``. +If the last child is a code block (``
...
``), then it +appends that block to the previous code block rather than creating a new +code block. + +Each BlockProcessor has the following utility methods available: + +* **``lastChild(parent)``**: + + Returns the last child of the given etree Element or ``None`` if it had no + children. + +* **``detab(text)``**: + + Removes one level of indent (four spaces by default) from the front of each + line of the given text string. + +* **``looseDetab(text, level)``**: + + Removes "level" levels of indent (defaults to 1) from the front of each line + of the given text string. However, this methods allows secondary lines to + not be indented as does some parts of the Markdown syntax. + +Each BlockProcessor also has a pointer to the containing BlockParser instance at +``self.parser``, which can be used to check or alter the state of the parser. +The BlockParser tracks it's state in a stack at ``parser.state``. The state +stack is an instance of the ``State`` class. + +**``State``** is a subclass of ``list`` and has the additional methods: + +* **``set(state)``**: + + Set a new state to string ``state``. The new state is appended to the end + of the stack. + +* **``reset()``**: + + Step back one step in the stack. The last state at the end is removed from + the stack. + +* **``isstate(state)``**: + + Test that the top (current) level of the stack is of the given string + ``state``. + +Note that to ensure that the state stack doesn't become corrupted, each time a +state is set for a block, that state *must* be reset when the parser finishes +parsing that block. + +An instance of the **``BlockParser``** is found at ``Markdown.parser``. +``BlockParser`` has the following methods: + +* **``parseDocument(lines)``**: + + Given a list of lines, an ElementTree object is returned. This should be + passed an entire document and is the only method the ``Markdown`` class + calls directly. + +* **``parseChunk(parent, text)``**: + + Parses a chunk of markdown text composed of multiple blocks and attaches + those blocks to the ``parent`` Element. The ``parent`` is altered in place + and nothing is returned. Extensions would most likely use this method for + block parsing. + +* **``parseBlocks(parent, blocks)``**: + + Parses a list of blocks of text and attaches those blocks to the ``parent`` + Element. The ``parent`` is altered in place and nothing is returned. This + method will generally only be used internally to recursively parse nested + blocks of text. + +While is is not recommended, an extension could subclass or completely replace +the ``BlockParser``. The new class would have to provide the same public API. +However, be aware that other extensions may expect the core parser provided +and will not work with such a drastically different parser. + +Working with the ElementTree {: #working_with_et } +-------------------------------------------------- + +As mentioned, the Markdown parser converts a source document to an +[ElementTree][] object before serializing that back to Unicode text. +Markdown has provided some helpers to ease that manipulation within the context +of the Markdown module. + +First, to get access to the ElementTree module import ElementTree from +``markdown`` rather than importing it directly. This will ensure you are using +the same version of ElementTree as markdown. The module is found at +``markdown.util.etree`` within Markdown. + + from markdown.util import etree + +``markdown.util.etree`` tries to import ElementTree from any known location, +first as a standard library module (from ``xml.etree`` in Python 2.5), then as +a third party package (``Elementree``). In each instance, ``cElementTree`` is +tried first, then ``ElementTree`` if the faster C implementation is not +available on your system. + +Sometimes you may want text inserted into an element to be parsed by +[InlinePatterns][]. In such a situation, simply insert the text as you normally +would and the text will be automatically run through the InlinePatterns. +However, if you do *not* want some text to be parsed by InlinePatterns, +then insert the text as an ``AtomicString``. + + from markdown.util import AtomicString + some_element.text = AtomicString(some_text) + +Here's a basic example which creates an HTML table (note that the contents of +the second cell (``td2``) will be run through InlinePatterns latter): + + table = etree.Element("table") + table.set("cellpadding", "2") # Set cellpadding to 2 + tr = etree.SubElement(table, "tr") # Add child tr to table + td1 = etree.SubElement(tr, "td") # Add child td1 to tr + td1.text = markdown.AtomicString("Cell content") # Add plain text content + td2 = etree.SubElement(tr, "td") # Add second td to tr + td2.text = "*text* with **inline** formatting." # Add markup text + table.tail = "Text after table" # Add text after table + +You can also manipulate an existing tree. Consider the following example which +adds a ``class`` attribute to ``
`` elements: + + def set_link_class(self, element): + for child in element: + if child.tag == "a": + child.set("class", "myclass") #set the class attribute + set_link_class(child) # run recursively on children + +For more information about working with ElementTree see the ElementTree +[Documentation](http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm) +([Python Docs](http://docs.python.org/lib/module-xml.etree.ElementTree.html)). + +Integrating Your Code Into Markdown {: #integrating_into_markdown } +------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Once you have the various pieces of your extension built, you need to tell +Markdown about them and ensure that they are run in the proper sequence. +Markdown accepts a ``Extension`` instance for each extension. Therefore, you +will need to define a class that extends ``markdown.extensions.Extension`` and +over-rides the ``extendMarkdown`` method. Within this class you will manage +configuration options for your extension and attach the various processors and +patterns to the Markdown instance. + +It is important to note that the order of the various processors and patterns +matters. For example, if we replace ``http://...`` links with ```` elements, +and *then* try to deal with inline html, we will end up with a mess. +Therefore, the various types of processors and patterns are stored within an +instance of the Markdown class in [OrderedDict][]s. Your ``Extension`` class +will need to manipulate those OrderedDicts appropriately. You may insert +instances of your processors and patterns into the appropriate location in an +OrderedDict, remove a built-in instance, or replace a built-in instance with +your own. + +### extendMarkdown {: #extendmarkdown } + +The ``extendMarkdown`` method of a ``markdown.extensions.Extension`` class +accepts two arguments: + +* **``md``**: + + A pointer to the instance of the Markdown class. You should use this to + access the [OrderedDict][]s of processors and patterns. They are found + under the following attributes: + + * ``md.preprocessors`` + * ``md.inlinePatterns`` + * ``md.parser.blockprocessors`` + * ``md.treepreprocessors`` + * ``md.postprocessors`` + + Some other things you may want to access in the markdown instance are: + + * ``md.htmlStash`` + * ``md.output_formats`` + * ``md.set_output_format()`` + * ``md.registerExtension()`` + * ``md.html_replacement_text`` + * ``md.tab_length`` + * ``md.enable_attributes`` + * ``md.smart_emphasis`` + +* **``md_globals``**: + + Contains all the various global variables within the markdown module. + +Of course, with access to those items, theoretically you have the option to +changing anything through various [monkey_patching][] techniques. However, you +should be aware that the various undocumented or private parts of markdown +may change without notice and your monkey_patches may break with a new release. +Therefore, what you really should be doing is inserting processors and patterns +into the markdown pipeline. Consider yourself warned. + +[monkey_patching]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_patch + +A simple example: + + from markdown.extensions import Extension + + class MyExtension(Extension): + def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals): + # Insert instance of 'mypattern' before 'references' pattern + md.inlinePatterns.add('mypattern', MyPattern(md), '``) followed by an existing key (i.e.: + ``">somekey"``) inserts that item after the existing key. + +Consider the following example: + + >>> from markdown.odict import OrderedDict + >>> od = OrderedDict() + >>> od['one'] = 1 # The same as: od.add('one', 1, '_begin') + >>> od['three'] = 3 # The same as: od.add('three', 3, '>one') + >>> od['four'] = 4 # The same as: od.add('four', 4, '_end') + >>> od.items() + [("one", 1), ("three", 3), ("four", 4)] + +Note that when building an OrderedDict in order, the extra features of the +``add`` method offer no real value and are not necessary. However, when +manipulating an existing OrderedDict, ``add`` can be very helpful. So let's +insert another item into the OrderedDict. + + >>> od.add('two', 2, '>one') # Insert after 'one' + >>> od.values() + [1, 2, 3, 4] + +Now let's insert another item. + + >>> od.add('twohalf', 2.5, '>> od.keys() + ["one", "two", "twohalf", "three", "four"] + +Note that we also could have set the location of "twohalf" to be 'after two' +(i.e.: ``'>two'``). However, it's unlikely that you will have control over the +order in which extensions will be loaded, and this could affect the final +sorted order of an OrderedDict. For example, suppose an extension adding +'twohalf' in the above examples was loaded before a separate extension which +adds 'two'. You may need to take this into consideration when adding your +extension components to the various markdown OrderedDicts. + +Once an OrderedDict is created, the items are available via key: + + MyNode = od['somekey'] + +Therefore, to delete an existing item: + + del od['somekey'] + +To change the value of an existing item (leaving location unchanged): + + od['somekey'] = MyNewObject() + +To change the location of an existing item: + + t.link('somekey', ' output.txt + +Note that parameters should always be assumed to be set to string +values, and should be converted at run time. For example: + + i = int(self.getConfig("SOME_PARAM")) + +### makeExtension {: #makeextension } + +Each extension should ideally be placed in its own module starting +with the ``mdx_`` prefix (e.g. ``mdx_footnotes.py``). The module must +provide a module-level function called ``makeExtension`` that takes +an optional parameter consisting of a dictionary of configuration over-rides +and returns an instance of the extension. An example from the footnote +extension: + + def makeExtension(configs=None) : + return FootnoteExtension(configs=configs) + +By following the above example, when Markdown is passed the name of your +extension as a string (i.e.: ``'footnotes'``), it will automatically import +the module and call the ``makeExtension`` function initiating your extension. + +You may have noted that the extensions packaged with Python-Markdown do not +use the ``mdx_`` prefix in their module names. This is because they are all +part of the ``markdown.extensions`` package. Markdown will first try to import +from ``markdown.extensions.extname`` and upon failure, ``mdx_extname``. If both +fail, Markdown will continue without the extension. + +However, Markdown will also accept an already existing instance of an extension. +For example: + + import markdown + import myextension + configs = {...} + myext = myextension.MyExtension(configs=configs) + md = markdown.Markdown(extensions=[myext]) + +This is useful if you need to implement a large number of extensions with more +than one residing in a module. + +[Preprocessors]: #preprocessors +[InlinePatterns]: #inlinepatterns +[Treeprocessors]: #treeprocessors +[Postprocessors]: #postprocessors +[BlockParser]: #blockparser +[Working with the ElementTree]: #working_with_et +[Integrating your code into Markdown]: #integrating_into_markdown +[extendMarkdown]: #extendmarkdown +[OrderedDict]: #ordereddict +[registerExtension]: #registerextension +[Config Settings]: #configsettings +[makeExtension]: #makeextension +[ElementTree]: http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm +[Available Extensions]: index.html +[Footnotes]: footnotes.html +[Definition Lists]: definition_lists.html diff --git a/docs/extensions/attr_list.md b/docs/extensions/attr_list.md deleted file mode 100644 index 11c6a28..0000000 --- a/docs/extensions/attr_list.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,80 +0,0 @@ -title: Attribute List Extension -prev_title: Abbreviation Extension -prev_url: abbreviations.html -next_title: Definition List Extension -next_url: definition_lists.html - -Attribute Lists -=============== - -Summary -------- - -An extension to Python-Markdown that adds a syntax to define attributes on -the various HTML elements in markdown's output. - -This extension is included in the standard Markdown library. - -Syntax ------- - -The basic syntax was inspired by [Maruku][]'s Attribute List feature. - -[Maruku]: http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.html#attribute_lists - -### The List ### - -An example attribute list might look like this: - - {: #someid .someclass somekey='some values' } - -A word which starts with a hash `#` will set the id of an element. - -A word which starts with a dot `.` will add to the list of classes assigned to -an element. - -A key/value pair will assign that pair to the element. - -Be aware that while the dot syntax will add to a class, using key/value pairs -will always override the previously defined attribute.

Specifically, any +``[[bracketed]]`` word is converted to a link. + +[WikiLinks]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikilink + +This extension has been included in the Markdown library since 2.0. + +Syntax +------ + +A ``[[bracketed]]`` word is any combination of upper or lower case letters, +number, dashes, underscores and spaces surrounded by double brackets. Therefore + + [[Bracketed]] + +Would produce the following html: + + Bracketed + +Note that wikilinks are automatically assigned `class="wikilink"` making it +easy to style wikilinks differently from other links on a page if one so +desires. See below for ways to alter the class. + +You should also note that when a space is used, the space is converted to an +underscore in the link but left as-is in the label. Perhaps an example +would illustrate this best: + + [[Wiki Link]] + +Becomes + + Wiki Link + +Usage +----- + +From the Python interpreter: + + >>> text = "Some text with a [[WikiLink]]." + >>> html = markdown.markdown(text, ['wikilink']) + +The default behavior is to point each link to the document root of the current +domain and close with a trailing slash. Additionally, each link is assigned to +the html class `wikilink`. This may not always be desirable. Therefore, one can +customize that behavior within Python code. Three settings are provided to +change the default behavior: + +1. **base_url**: String to append to beginning of URL. + + Default: `'/'` + +2. **end_url**: String to append to end of URL. + + Default: `'/'` + +3. **html_class**: CSS hook. Leave blank for none. + + Default: `'wikilink'` + +4. **build_url**: Callable which formats the URL from it's parts. + +For an example, let us suppose links should always point to the subdirectory +`/wiki/` and end with `.html` + + >>> html = markdown.markdown(text, + ... ['wikilink(base_url=/wiki/,end_url=.html)'] + ... ) + +The above would result in the following link for `[[WikiLink]]`. + + WikiLink + +If you want to do more that just alter the base and/or end of the URL, you +could also pass in a callable which must accept three arguments (``label``, +``base``, and ``end``). The callable must return the URL in it's entirety. + + def my_url_builder(label, base, end): + # do stuff + return url + + md = markdown.Markdown( + extensions=['wikilinks], + extension_configs={'wikilinks' : [('build_url', my_url_builder)]} + ) + + +The option is also provided to change or remove the class attribute. + + >>> html = markdown.markdown(text, + ... ['wikilink(base_url=myclass)'] + ... ) + +Would cause all wikilinks to be assigned to the class `myclass`. + + WikiLink + +The same options can be used on the command line as well: + + python markdown.py -x wikilink(base_url=http://example.com/,end_url=.html,html_class=foo) src.txt + +Some may prefer the more complex format when calling the `Markdown` class directly: + + >>> md = markdown.Markdown( + ... extensions = ['wikilink'], + ... extension_configs = {'wikilink': [ + ... ('base_url', 'http://example.com/'), + ... ('end_url', '.html'), + ... ('html_class', '') ]}, + ... safe_mode = True + ... ) + >>> html = md.convert(text) + +Using with Meta-Data +-------------------- + +The WikiLink Extension also supports the [Meta-Data](meta_data.html) Extension. +Please see the documentation for that extension for specifics. The supported +meta-data keywords are: + +* `wiki_base_url` +* `wiki_end_url` +* `wiki_html_class` + +When used, the meta-data will override the settings provided through the +`extension_configs` interface. + +This document: + + wiki_base_url: http://example.com/ + wiki_end_url: .html + wiki_html_class: + + A [[WikiLink]] in the first paragraph. + +would result in the following output (notice the blank `wiki_html_class`): + +
