markdoc-py 0.3.0

Python port of Markdoc

markdoc-py

Python port of Markdoc, a Markdown-based authoring framework with custom tags and annotations.

Documentation: https://osks.github.io/markdoc-py/markdocpy.html

Status

This project is under active development. Core parsing, transforming, and HTML rendering are implemented, with fixture-based tests and JS parity fixtures.

JS parity notes

The Python port intentionally tracks JS Markdoc behavior, but some differences can exist while parity work is in progress. To see what is currently covered and any known gaps:

• spec-parity.md explains the parity scope and lists tracked gaps.
• tests/spec/manifest.json marks known JS mismatches with xfail_js.
• tests/test_spec_parity.py enforces parity against committed JS outputs.

Requirements

• Python 3.13+
• Node.js (only needed for JS parity fixture generation)

Install (dev)

make env

Quick start

import markdocpy as Markdoc

source = \"\"\"
# Hello

{% note title=\"A\" %}
Body
{% /note %}
\"\"\"

ast = Markdoc.parse(source)
content = Markdoc.transform(ast, {\"tags\": {\"note\": {\"render\": \"note\", \"attributes\": {\"title\": {}}}}})
html = Markdoc.renderers.html(content)

API

ast = Markdoc.parse(source)
content = Markdoc.transform(ast, config)
errors = Markdoc.validate(ast, config)
html = Markdoc.renderers.html(content)

Tests
