⚠️ Important

This project is no longer maintained, will not received any updates and will not support future versions of Laravel.

Laravel-Markdown

A small, lightweight and easy-to-use Laravel package for handling markdown. It comes with a facade, a helper function and a Blade directive to make life easier for you.

Laravel version	Laravel-Markdown version
5.8, 6.*	3.1.1
5.7	3.0.1
5.6	3.0
5.5	2.0
5.3, 5.4	1.1
5.2	1.0

Installation

To install it, simply pull it down with Composer. Run the php artisan vendor:publish command to publish the configuration file.

composer require andreasindal/laravel-markdown:"3.0.1"

Laravel 5.5 and above use Package Auto-Discovery, so you do not have to manually add the MarkdownServiceProvider.

Usage

Blade-directive

The markdown parser may be used in your Blade templates by using the @markdown directive.

<article>
    <h1>{{ $post->title }}</h1>

    <section class="content">
        @markdown($post->body)
    </section>
</article>

You can also use a block-style syntax:

@markdown
# Hello world

This *text* will be **parsed** to [HTML](http://laravel.com).
@endmarkdown

Facade

If you registered the Markdown facade as shown above, you can easily parse markdown using it.

$markdown = "# Hello";

$html = Markdown::parse($markdown) // <h1>Hello</h1>

Helper-functions

$html = markdown('# Hello'); // <h1>Hello</h1>

$html = markdown_capture(function () {
    echo "# Hello";
    echo "\n\n";
    echo "So **cool**!"
});

// <h1>Hello</h1>
// <p>So <b>cool</b>!</p>

Of course, you could also resolve the parser from the service container and use it yourself.

$parser = app('Indal\Markdown\Parser');
$html = $parser->parse('# Hello'); // <h1>Hello</h1>

Drivers (NEW!)

Laravel-Markdown allows you to add custom markdown drivers. In order to use a custom markdown driver, you need to create a class that implements the Indal\Markdown\Drivers\MarkdownDriver interface. The interface contains two methods: text and line. text is used to convert a block of markdown to HTML, while line is used to convert a single line.

Laravel-Markdown ships with a ParsedownDriver using the Parsedown-package by @erusev.
