forked from icyleaf/markdmarkd
Yet another markdown parser built for speed, written in Crystal, Compliant to CommonMark specification (v0.27
). Copy from commonmark.js.
Installation
Add this to your application's shard.yml

Quick start
require "markd"
markdown = <<-MD
# Hello Markd
> Yet another markdown parser built for speed, written in Crystal, Compliant to CommonMark specification.
MD
html = Markd.to_html(markdown)
Also here are options to configure the parse and render.
options = Markd::Options.new(smart: true, safe: true)
Markd.to_html(markdown, options)
Options
Name | Type | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
time | Bool |
false | render parse cost time during read source, parse blocks, parse inline. |
smart | Bool |
false | if true, straight quotes will be made curly,-- will be changed to an en dash,--- will be changed to an em dash, and... will be changed to ellipses. |
source_pos | Bool |
false | if true, source position information for block-level elements will be rendered in the data-sourcepos attribute (for HTML) |
safe | Bool |
false | if true, raw HTML will not be passed through to HTML output (it will be replaced by comments) |
prettyprint | Bool |
false | if true, code tags generated by code blocks will have a prettyprint class added to them, to be used by Google code-prettify. |
gfm | Bool |
false | Not supported for now |
toc | Bool |
false | Not supported for now |
base_url | URI? |
nil | if not nil, relative URLs of links are resolved against this URI . It act's like HTML's <base href="base_url"> in the context of a Markdown document. |
Advanced
If you want to use a custom renderer, it can!
class CustomRenderer < Markd::Renderer
def strong(node, entering)
end
# more methods following in render.
end
options = Markd::Options.new(time: true)
document = Markd::Parser.parse(markdown, options)
renderer = CustomRenderer.new(options)
html = renderer.render(document)
Performance
First of all, Markd is slower than Crystal Built-in Markdown which it is a lite version, only apply for generte Cystal documents (#4496, #4613).
Here is the result of a sample markdown file parse at MacBook Pro Retina 2015 (2.2 GHz):
Crystal Markdown 3.28k (305.29µs) (± 0.92%) fastest
Markd 305.36 ( 3.27ms) (± 5.52%) 10.73× slower
Recently, I'm working to compare the other popular commonmark parser, the code is stored in benchmarks.
