+# Markdown Parser and HTML Renderer for Go
+
+[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/gomarkdown/markdown/branch/master/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/gomarkdown/markdown)
+
+Package `github.com/gomarkdown/markdown` is a very fast Go library for parsing [Markdown](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) documents and rendering them to HTML.
+
+It's fast and supports common extensions.
+
+## Installation
+
+ go get -u github.com/gomarkdown/markdown
+
+API Docs:
+
+- https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown : top level package
+- https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/ast : defines abstract syntax tree of parsed markdown document
+- https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/parser : parser
+- https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html : html renderer
+
+## Usage
+
+To convert markdown text to HTML using reasonable defaults:
+
+```go
+md := []byte("## markdown document")
+output := markdown.ToHTML(md, nil, nil)
+```
+
+## Customizing markdown parser
+
+Markdown format is loosely specified and there are multiple extensions invented after original specification was created.
+
+The parser supports several [extensions](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/parser#Extensions).
+
+Default parser uses most common `parser.CommonExtensions` but you can easily use parser with custom extension:
+
+```go
+import (
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown"
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/parser"
+)
+
+extensions := parser.CommonExtensions | parser.AutoHeadingIDs
+parser := parser.NewWithExtensions(extensions)
+
+md := []byte("markdown text")
+html := markdown.ToHTML(md, parser, nil)
+```
+
+## Customizing HTML renderer
+
+Similarly, HTML renderer can be configured with different [options](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html#RendererOptions)
+
+Here's how to use a custom renderer:
+
+```go
+import (
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown"
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html"
+)
+
+htmlFlags := html.CommonFlags | html.HrefTargetBlank
+opts := html.RendererOptions{Flags: htmlFlags}
+renderer := html.NewRenderer(opts)
+
+md := []byte("markdown text")
+html := markdown.ToHTML(md, nil, renderer)
+```
+
+HTML renderer also supports reusing most of the logic and overriding rendering of only specifc nodes.
+
+You can provide [RenderNodeFunc](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html#RenderNodeFunc) in [RendererOptions](https://godoc.org/github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html#RendererOptions).
+
+The function is called for each node in AST, you can implement custom rendering logic and tell HTML renderer to skip rendering this node.
+
+Here's the simplest example that drops all code blocks from the output:
+
+````go
+import (
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown"
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/ast"
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/html"
+)
+
+// return (ast.GoToNext, true) to tell html renderer to skip rendering this node
+// (because you've rendered it)
+func renderHookDropCodeBlock(w io.Writer, node ast.Node, entering bool) (ast.WalkStatus, bool) {
+ // skip all nodes that are not CodeBlock nodes
+ if _, ok := node.(*ast.CodeBlock); !ok {
+ return ast.GoToNext, false
+ }
+ // custom rendering logic for ast.CodeBlock. By doing nothing it won't be
+ // present in the output
+ return ast.GoToNext, true
+}
+
+opts := html.RendererOptions{
+ Flags: html.CommonFlags,
+ RenderNodeHook: renderHookDropCodeBlock,
+}
+renderer := html.NewRenderer(opts)
+md := "test\n```\nthis code block will be dropped from output\n```\ntext"
+html := markdown.ToHTML([]byte(s), nil, renderer)
+````
+
+## Sanitize untrusted content
+
+We don't protect against malicious content. When dealing with user-provided
+markdown, run renderer HTML through HTML sanitizer such as [Bluemonday](https://github.com/microcosm-cc/bluemonday).
+
+Here's an example of simple usage with Bluemonday:
+
+```go
+import (
+ "github.com/microcosm-cc/bluemonday"
+ "github.com/gomarkdown/markdown"
+)
+
+// ...
+maybeUnsafeHTML := markdown.ToHTML(md, nil, nil)
+html := bluemonday.UGCPolicy().SanitizeBytes(maybeUnsafeHTML)
+```
+
+## mdtohtml command-line tool
+
+https://github.com/gomarkdown/mdtohtml is a command-line markdown to html
+converter built using this library.
+
+You can also use it as an example of how to use the library.
+
+You can install it with:
+
+ go get -u github.com/gomarkdown/mdtohtml
+
+To run: `mdtohtml input-file [output-file]`
+
+## Features
+
+- **Compatibility**. The Markdown v1.0.3 test suite passes with
+ the `--tidy` option. Without `--tidy`, the differences are
+ mostly in whitespace and entity escaping, where this package is
+ more consistent and cleaner.
+
+- **Common extensions**, including table support, fenced code
+ blocks, autolinks, strikethroughs, non-strict emphasis, etc.
+
+- **Safety**. Markdown is paranoid when parsing, making it safe
+ to feed untrusted user input without fear of bad things
+ happening. The test suite stress tests this and there are no
+ known inputs that make it crash. If you find one, please let me
+ know and send me the input that does it.
+
+ NOTE: "safety" in this context means _runtime safety only_. In order to
+ protect yourself against JavaScript injection in untrusted content, see
+ [this example](https://github.com/gomarkdown/markdown#sanitize-untrusted-content).
+
+- **Fast**. It is fast enough to render on-demand in
+ most web applications without having to cache the output.
+
+- **Thread safety**. You can run multiple parsers in different
+ goroutines without ill effect. There is no dependence on global
+ shared state.
+
+- **Minimal dependencies**. Only depends on standard library packages in Go.
+
+- **Standards compliant**. Output successfully validates using the
+ W3C validation tool for HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
+
+## Extensions
+
+In addition to the standard markdown syntax, this package
+implements the following extensions:
+
+- **Intra-word emphasis supression**. The `_` character is
+ commonly used inside words when discussing code, so having
+ markdown interpret it as an emphasis command is usually the
+ wrong thing. We let you treat all emphasis markers as
+ normal characters when they occur inside a word.
+
+- **Tables**. Tables can be created by drawing them in the input
+ using a simple syntax:
+
+ ```
+ Name | Age
+ --------|------
+ Bob | 27
+ Alice | 23
+ ```
+
+ Table footers are supported as well and can be added with equal signs (`=`):
+
+ ```
+ Name | Age
+ --------|------
+ Bob | 27
+ Alice | 23
+ ========|======
+ Total | 50
+ ```
+
+- **Fenced code blocks**. In addition to the normal 4-space
+ indentation to mark code blocks, you can explicitly mark them
+ and supply a language (to make syntax highlighting simple). Just
+ mark it like this:
+
+ ```go
+ func getTrue() bool {
+ return true
+ }
+ ```
+
+ You can use 3 or more backticks to mark the beginning of the
+ block, and the same number to mark the end of the block.
+
+- **Definition lists**. A simple definition list is made of a single-line
+ term followed by a colon and the definition for that term.
+
+ Cat
+ : Fluffy animal everyone likes
+
+ Internet
+ : Vector of transmission for pictures of cats
+
+ Terms must be separated from the previous definition by a blank line.
+
+- **Footnotes**. A marker in the text that will become a superscript number;
+ a footnote definition that will be placed in a list of footnotes at the
+ end of the document. A footnote looks like this:
+
+ This is a footnote.[^1]
+
+ [^1]: the footnote text.
+
+- **Autolinking**. We can find URLs that have not been
+ explicitly marked as links and turn them into links.
+
+- **Strikethrough**. Use two tildes (`~~`) to mark text that
+ should be crossed out.
+
+- **Hard line breaks**. With this extension enabled newlines in the input
+ translate into line breaks in the output. This extension is off by default.
+
+- **Non blocking space**. With this extension enabled spaces preceeded by an backslash n the input
+ translate non-blocking spaces in the output. This extension is off by default.
+
+- **Smart quotes**. Smartypants-style punctuation substitution is
+ supported, turning normal double- and single-quote marks into
+ curly quotes, etc.
+
+- **LaTeX-style dash parsing** is an additional option, where `--`
+ is translated into `&ndash;`, and `---` is translated into
+ `&mdash;`. This differs from most smartypants processors, which
+ turn a single hyphen into an ndash and a double hyphen into an
+ mdash.
+
+- **Smart fractions**, where anything that looks like a fraction
+ is translated into suitable HTML (instead of just a few special
+ cases like most smartypant processors). For example, `4/5`
+ becomes `<sup>4</sup>&frasl;<sub>5</sub>`, which renders as
+ <sup>4</sup>&frasl;<sub>5</sub>.
+
+- **MathJaX Support** is an additional feature which is supported by
+ many markdown editor. It translate inline math equation quoted by `$`
+ and display math block quoted by `$$` into MathJax compatible format.
+ hyphen `_` won't break LaTeX render within a math element any more.
+
+ ```
+ $$
+ \left[ \begin{array}{a} a^l_1 \\ ⋮ \\ a^l_{d_l} \end{array}\right]
+ = \sigma(
+ \left[ \begin{matrix}
+ w^l_{1,1} & ⋯ & w^l_{1,d_{l-1}} \\
+ ⋮ & ⋱ & ⋮ \\
+ w^l_{d_l,1} & ⋯ & w^l_{d_l,d_{l-1}} \\
+ \end{matrix}\right] ·
+ \left[ \begin{array}{x} a^{l-1}_1 \\ ⋮ \\ ⋮ \\ a^{l-1}_{d_{l-1}} \end{array}\right] +
+ \left[ \begin{array}{b} b^l_1 \\ ⋮ \\ b^l_{d_l} \end{array}\right])
+ $$
+ ```
+
+- **Ordered list start number**. With this extension enabled an ordered list will start with the
+ the number that was used to start it.
+
+- **Super and subscript**. With this extension enabled sequences between ^ will indicate
+ superscript and ~ will become a subscript. For example: H~2~O is a liquid, 2^10^ is 1024.
+
+- **Block level attributes**, allow setting attributes (ID, classes and key/value pairs) on block
+ level elements. The attribute must be enclosed with braces and be put on a line before the
+ element.
+
+ ```
+ {#id3 .myclass fontsize="tiny"}
+ # Header 1
+ ```
+
+ Will convert into `<h1 id="id3" class="myclass" fontsize="tiny">Header 1</h1>`.
+
+- **Mmark support**, see <https://mmark.nl/syntax> for all new syntax elements this adds.
+
+## Todo
+
+- port https://github.com/russross/blackfriday/issues/348
+- port [LaTeX output](https://github.com/Ambrevar/Blackfriday-LaTeX):
+ renders output as LaTeX.
+- port https://github.com/shurcooL/github_flavored_markdown to markdown
+- port [markdownfmt](https://github.com/shurcooL/markdownfmt): like gofmt,
+ but for markdown.
+- More unit testing
+- Improve unicode support. It does not understand all unicode
+ rules (about what constitutes a letter, a punctuation symbol,
+ etc.), so it may fail to detect word boundaries correctly in
+ some instances. It is safe on all utf-8 input.
+
+## History
+
+markdown is a fork of v2 of https://github.com/russross/blackfriday that is:
+
+- actively maintained (sadly in Feb 2018 blackfriday was inactive for 5 months with many bugs and pull requests accumulated)
+- refactored API (split into ast/parser/html sub-packages)
+
+Blackfriday itself was based on C implementation [sundown](https://github.com/vmg/sundown) which in turn was based on [libsoldout](http://fossil.instinctive.eu/libsoldout/home).
