Parse and Render ==marked text== with league/commonmark

A league/commonmark extension to turn highlighted text into <mark>-HTML elements.

For example, the following markdown text …

The ==quick brown fox== jumps over the lazy dog.

… is turned into the following HTML.

<p>The <mark>quick brown fox</mark> jumps over the lazy dog.</p>

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require wnx/commonmark-mark-extension

Usage

Create a custom CommonMark environment, and register the MarkExtension.

use League\CommonMark\Environment\Environment;
use League\CommonMark\Extension\CommonMark\CommonMarkCoreExtension;
use League\CommonMark\MarkdownConverter;
use Wnx\CommonmarkMarkExtension\MarkExtension;

// Configure the Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers
$environment = new Environment();
$environment->addExtension(new CommonMarkCoreExtension());

// Add this extension
$environment->addExtension(new MarkExtension());

// Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown!
$converter = new MarkdownConverter($environment);
echo $converter->convertToHtml('The ==quick== brown fox jumps over the ==lazy dog==');

If you're using a different character than = to highlight text in Markdown, you can pass a character configuration to the extension.

use League\CommonMark\Environment\Environment;
use League\CommonMark\Extension\CommonMark\CommonMarkCoreExtension;
use League\CommonMark\MarkdownConverter;
use Wnx\CommonmarkMarkExtension\MarkExtension;

// Define your configuration, if needed
$config = [
    'mark' => [
        'character' => ':',
    ],
];

// Configure the Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers
$environment = new Environment($config);
$environment->addExtension(new CommonMarkCoreExtension());

// Add this extension
$environment->addExtension(new MarkExtension());

// Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown!
$converter = new MarkdownConverter($environment);
echo $converter->convertToHtml('The ::quick:: brown fox jumps over the ::lazy dog::');
