markdown-include-annotated 1.0.2

A Python-Markdown extension which provides an 'include' function with optional annotated line comments.

Markdown-Include 🚀

Welcome to Markdown-Include v1.0.0! 🎉

This is an extension to Python-Markdown which provides an "include" function, similar to that found in LaTeX (and also the C pre-processor and Fortran). I originally wrote it for my FORD Fortran auto-documentation generator.

✨ New in v1.0.0: Optional annotated line comments for included lines using the annotated_comments config option! 📝

📦 Installation

Install with pip:

pip install markdown-include-annotated

---

🧪 Tests

Run the tests with:

python -m unittest discover unittests/

---

🚦 Usage

Use in your Python code:

import markdown
html = markdown.markdown(source, extensions=['markdown_include.include'])

Or in MkDocs:

markdown_extensions:
    - markdown_include.include:
        base_path: docs

---

🔗 Include Syntax

Use {!filename!} in your Markdown files to include content from another file. Works recursively! 🪄

• Line Ranges:

  {!filename!lines=1 3 8-10 2}
  

  • This includes lines 1, 3, 8, 9, 10, and 2 (in that order) from filename.
  • You can mix single lines and ranges, and even change the order!

---

⚙️ Configuration

You can specify these settings when initializing the plugin:

• base_path: 📁 Default location for relative paths (default: run-directory)
• encoding: 🔤 File encoding (default: utf-8)
• inheritHeadingDepth: 🔢 Inherit heading depth from parent (default: False)
• headingOffset: ➕ Offset heading depth (default: 0)
• throwException: 🚨 Throw if file not found (default: False)
• annotated_comments: 📝 NEW! Add a comment with the filename and line number before each included line when using lines (default: False)

---

💡 Examples

Basic usage:

import markdown
from markdown_include.include import MarkdownInclude

markdown_include = MarkdownInclude(
    configs={'base_path':'/srv/content/', 'encoding': 'iso-8859-1'}
)
html = markdown.markdown(source, extensions=[markdown_include])

Enable annotated comments:

import markdown
from markdown_include.include import MarkdownInclude

markdown_include = MarkdownInclude(
    configs={'base_path':'/srv/content/', 'annotated_comments': True}
)
html = markdown.markdown(source, extensions=[markdown_include])

Or in mkdocs.yml:

markdown_extensions:
    - markdown_include.include:
        base_path: docs
        annotated_comments: true
