Project description
Verto is an extension of the Python Markdown package, which allows authors to include complex HTML elements with simple text tags in their Markdown files.
Basic Usage
Verto allows for an author to quickly include images and content and display them in a panel (similar to a Bootstrap Collapsible Panel) with the following markdown:
# Example Header
Example Paragraph
{panel type="example"}
# Example Panel
{image file-path="http://placehold.it/350x150" caption="Example Image"}
{panel end}
While Verto has many configuration options it can be used immediately with little code. For example, if the previous markdown is saved in the file called example.md then the following would convert that file and print the output to stdout:
from verto import Verto
text = open('example.md', 'r').read()
converter = Verto()
result = converter.convert(text)
print(result.html_string)

Installation and usage documentation for Verto can be found on ReadTheDocs, and can also be built from the documentation source within the docs/ directory of the development distribution.
