A library to generate random markdown text

random-markdown-generator

A library to generate random markdown text.

But why?

I was making a blog web-app that lets its users write blog posts using markdown syntax. I couldn't find any python package that does this easily. Using the faker library, I created this package to make a highly configurable markdown post generator. Additionally, it also provides an API for creating markdown files using python.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Installing

You must have python and pip installed on your system, and in you PATH. An activated virtual environment is also recommended.

Using pip:

pip install mdgen

Or using poetry:

poetry add mdgen

Sample usage

from faker import Faker
from mdgen import MarkdownPostProvider
fake = Faker()
fake.add_provider(MarkdownPostProvider)
fake_post = fake.post(size='medium') # available sizes: 'small', 'medium', 'large'
print(fake_post)

The output from the above command:
