mistune-jira

A Jira Rendering Engine for Mistune.

Mistune is awesome. It does an amazing job of parsing markdown. It has the ability to take those documents and export them in different sytaxes. This is an attempt to write a parser for Atlassian's Markup Language used in Jira and some other tools.

The goal is to be able to have data in markdown and then use that markdown to create a well formatted ticket in Jira.

Hopefully Jira will someday fully support markdown and make this project irrelevant.

Usage

import mistune
import mistune_jira

text = '''
# Lorem Ipsum

This is some sample markdown. [Say hi to google](https://www.google.com) as an example link
to be converted.
