Readme
Markdown Tag
It parse one or more tag delimited Markdown areas from a text source.
This way you can put little Markdown portions into your big HTML page.
Usage
I mostly use this utility in GruntJS tasks combined with the grunt-contrib-copy module.
index.html
<html>
...
<body>
...
<markdown-tag>
My _Markdown_ text
</markdown-tag>
...
<markdown-tag>
## another piece
</markdown-tag>
...
</body>
<html>script.js
var fs = require('fs');
var markdownTag = require('markdown-tag');
var html = markdownTag(fs.readFileSync('index.html', 'utf8'));Custom Delimiters
With version 0.2.0 you can specify your custom delimiters.
Take a look at the following chunk of HTML page:
<!-- Markdown -->
my **Markdown** _template_
<!-- /Markdown -->then you can parse it this way:
markdownTag(html, '<!-- Markdown -->', '<!-- /Markdown -->');Tests
I wrote some basic tests for this utility. In order to run the tests you need GruntJS to be installed globally in your machine.
npm install && gruntParsed with Marked
So far I use Marked for the real Markdown parsing but I'm looking for a parser which accept a little more expanded syntax.
