This projects goal is to implement a fast markdown parser with an extended syntax fitted for my needs.
``` USAGE: snekdown [OPTIONS]
FLAGS: -h, --help Prints help information -V, --version Prints version information
OPTIONS:
-f, --format
ARGS:
```md Simple Syntax !(url)
Extended syntax with a description
Extended syntax with metadata to specify the size
[metadata]
Extended syntax with metadata and no description !(url)[metadata] ```
```md Simple (default) Syntax
This is a quote
Multiline
This is a Multiline Quote
Quote with metadata (e.g. Author) [Trivernis - 2020]> This is a quote with metadata ```
Imports can be used to import a different document to be attached to the main document. Imports are parsed via multithreading.
md
<[path]
Tables MUST start with a pipe character |
```md Standalone header: | header | header | header
Header with rows | header | header | header |--------|--------|------- | row | row | row ```
Placeholders can be used to insert special elements in a specific place. Placeholders are always case insensitive.
```md Insert the table of contents [[TOC]]
Insert the current date [[date]]
Insert the current time [[time]] ```
Additional metadata can be provided for some elements.
```md String value [key = value]
String value [key = "String value"]
Integer value [key = 123]
Float value [key = 1.23]
Boolean [key]
Boolean [key = false]
Placeholder [key = [[placeholder]]]
Formatting [author = "The Great snek" date = [[date]] time = [[time]] display = "author - date at time"] ```
``` Hide a section (including subsections) in the TOC
Set the size of an image !(url)[width = 42% height=auto]
Set the source of a quote [author=Me date=[[date]] display="author - date"]> It's me
Set options for placeholders [[toc]][ordered] ```
