Name

Text::Markup::Multimarkdown - MultiMarkdown parser for Text::Markup

Synopsis

  my $html = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'README.mmd');
  my $raw  = Text::Markup->new->parse(
      file    => 'README.mmd',
      options => [ raw => 1 ],
  );

Description

This is the MultiMarkdown parser for Text::Markup. It reads in the file (relying on a BOM), hands it off to Text::MultiMarkdown for parsing, and then returns the generated HTML as an encoded UTF-8 string with an http-equiv="Content-Type" element identifying the encoding as UTF-8.

It recognizes files with the following extensions as MultiMarkdown:

.mmd
.mmkd
.mmkdn
.mmdown
.multimarkdown

To change it the files it recognizes, load this module directly and pass a regular expression matching the desired extension(s), like so:

  use Text::Markup::Multimarkdown qr{mmm+};

Normally this module returns the output wrapped in a minimal HTML document skeleton. If you would like the raw output without the skeleton, you can pass the raw option to the format options argument to parse.

In addition, Text::Markup::Mediawiki supports all of the Text::MultiMarkdown options, including:

use_metadata
strip_metadata
empty_element_suffix
img_ids
heading_ids
bibliography_title
tab_width
disable_tables
disable_footnotes
disable_bibliography
disable_definition_lists
