Marquedown

Extending Markdown further by adding a few more useful notations.

It uses markdown2 to implement common syntax via its extras.

Examples

Blockquote with citation

This is currently limited to the top scope with no indentation. Surrounding dotted lines are optional.

Example

BBCode HTML tags

These tags allow you to put Marquedown inside HTML tags. This is done by finding and replacing them with their represented HTML after all other Marquedown has been rendered.

Tags and classes

The naming scheme is the same as in CSS, e.g. tag.class1.class2 If tag is omitted, it is treated to be div

ID:s

ID:s are supported using #beans at the end of the tag, ex. [p#beans]

Example

Marquedown

[section]
[.bingo]
A regular **paragraph** written in Marquedown, but *within* other HTML tags.
[//]

[tag.class1.class2] [/tag]

HTML

<section>
<div class="bingo">
    <p>
        A regular <strong>paragraph</strong> written in Marquedown, but <em>within</em> other HTML tags.
    </p>
</div></section>

<tag class="class1 class2"> </tag>

QR codes can be generated and referenced automatically via the render command. If you want to generate QR codes with marquedown.marquedown, you can follow the example below.

Example

Python

from marquedown import marquedown
from marquedown.qr import QRGenerator

with open('public/document.mqd', 'r') as f:
    document = f.read()

with open('public/document.html', 'w') as f:
    qrgen = QRGenerator('public/qr', 'qr')
    rendered = marquedown(document, qrgen=qrgen)
    f.write(rendered)

Marquedown

![qr:monero-wallet](monero:abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz)

[o] Bee Movie transcript ..................[o]
| According to all known laws of aviation,
| there is no way that a bee should be able
| to fly. Its wings are too small to get its
| fat little body off the ground. The bee,
| of course, flies anyway because bees don't
| care what humans think is impossible.

Commands

render: Render documents

You can render an entire directory and its subdirectories of Markdown or Marquedown documents. This can be used to automate rendering pages for your website.

Do python -m marquedown render --help for list of options.

Example

For a few of my websites hosted on GitLab, I have it set up to run this on push:

# Render document
python -m marquedown render -i "./mqd" -o "./public" -t "./templates/page.html"

# This is for the GitLab Pages publication
mkdir .public
cp -r public .public
mv .public public
