Markdown rendering for TiddlyWeb

Project description

# Intro

A [TiddlyWeb](http://tiddlyweb.com/) plugin to render markdown
syntax wikitext to HTML using the
[Python Markdown](https://github.com/waylan/Python-Markdown) library.

# Features

If `markdown.wiki_link_base` is set in
[instance](http://tiddlyweb.tiddlyspace.com/instance) config, then
TiddlyWeb oriented features are turned on (see below),
otherwise the text is treated as straight Markdown.

By default some extensions are included:

* `fenced_code`: http://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/fenced_code_blocks.html
* `def_list`: http://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/definition_lists.html
* `foootnotes`: http://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/footnotes.html
* `headerid`: http://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/extensions/header_id.html

The TiddlyWeb features add the following. If
[TiddlySpace](http://tiddlyspace.com) is available, then @space
additions are availble.

* `wikilinks`: CamelCase and CamelCase@space
* `spacelinks`: @space
* `freelinks`: [[some page]] and [[some page]]@space
* `labeled freelinks`: [[target|some page]] and [[target|some page]]@space
* `transclusion`: see below

Wikilinks and freelinks will be prefixed by `wiki_link_base`.
Set it to '' (emptry string) to activate the features without any prefix.

Transclusion uses the following syntax:

```
{{tiddler title}}
```

That will include tiddler with the given title from the
current context (recipe or bag) of the transcluding tiddler.
If in a TiddlySpace environment then interspace transclusion
is possible:

```
{{tiddler title}}@spacename
```

To use this renderer on Tiddlers which have a type of
`text/x-markdown` adjust
[tiddlywebconfig.py](http://tiddlyweb.tiddlyspace.com/tiddlywebconfig.py)
to include:

```
'wikitext.type_render_map' :{
'text/x-markdown': 'tiddlywebplugins.markdown'
}
```

If you want all text tiddlers to be rendered as markdown,
then set

```
'wikitext.default_renderer': 'tiddlywebplugins.markdown'
```
