Markdown filter for Angular

Installation

# As a bower component:
$ bower install angular-markdown-filter

It's recomended to also use ngSanitize if you plan to bind the output using ngBindHtml to pervent XSS.

$ bower install angular-sanitize

  .config(function(markdownProvider) {
    markdownProvider.config({
      extensions: ['table']
    });
  });

see the Showdown documentation for details on how to create extensions.

Usage

  // Optional Config
  .config(function ($compileProvider) {
    // Add optional support for custom schema links: "herp://" and "derp://"
    $compileProvider.aHrefSanitizationWhitelist(/^\s*(herp|derp):/);
  })
  .controller('MainCtrl', function ($scope) {
    $scope.text = '# Heading 1\n- [Link](http://example.com)\n- [Custom Link 1](herp://is.this.working?)\n- [Custom Link 2](derp://is.this.working?)';
