Question

How to use John Grubers Markdown markup?

Answer

Installation

  • download markdownpmw.phpΔ and put it into your cookbook/ folder
  • include this file with include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/markdownpmw.php"); in your config.php

For the translation itself we use Michel Fortin's PHP Markdown library.

Configuration

Several config options are available. Each of these must be set in config.php, before including markdownpmw.php.

$MarkdownMarkupUseClassicParser (default: false)
If set to true, the Classic version of the parser is used. (PHP Markdown Classic must be installed.)
$MarkdownMarkupMarkdownExtraEnabled (default: false)
If set to true, Markdown Extra is enabled.
$MarkdownMarkupParserOptions (default: empty)
An array of parser configuration options.
MarkdownMarkupDirectiveArgumentsEnabled (default: false)
If set to true, parser options may be set via arguments to the (:markdown:) directive (as well as the extra and classic arguments, which override the values of $MarkdownMarkupUseClassicParser and $MarkdownMarkupMarkdownExtraEnabled respectively).

Usage

The Markdown markup can be used by enclosing it in (:markdown:)and (:markdownend:):

(:markdown:)

 Test
 ====

(:markdownend:) 

If you want to use it on many pages without PmWiki markup maybe you want to put these into your GroupHeader/GroupFooter.
