Overview

Slimdown

A simple regex-based Markdown parser in PHP. Supports the following elements (and can be extended via Slimdown::add_rule()):

Headers
Links
Bold
Emphasis
Deletions
Quotes
Code blocks
Inline code
Blockquotes
Ordered/unordered lists
Images

Originally hosted as a gist here.

Usage

Here is the general use case:



require_once ('Slimdown.php');

echo Slimdown::render (
	"# Page title\n\nAnd **now** for something _completely_ different."
);

Or via composer:

composer require jbroadway/slimdown

Then:



require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

echo Slimdown::render (
	"# Page title\n\nAnd **now** for something _completely_ different."
);

Adding rules

A simple rule to convert :) to an image:

\2'); echo Slimdown::render ('Know what I\'m sayin? :)');">



Slimdown::add_rule ('/(\W)\:\)(\W)/', '\1\2');

echo Slimdown::render ('Know what I\'m sayin? :)');

In this example, we add GitHub-style internal linking (e.g., [[Another Page]]).

%s', preg_replace ('/[^a-zA-Z0-9_-]+/', '-', $title), $title ); } Slimdown::add_rule ('/\[\[(.*?)\]\]/e', 'mywiki_internal_link (\'\\1\')'); echo Slimdown::render ('Check [[This Page]] out!');">



function mywiki_internal_link ($title) {
	return sprintf (
		'%s',
		preg_replace ('/[^a-zA-Z0-9_-]+/', '-', $title),
		$title
	);
}

Slimdown::add_rule ('/\[\[(.*?)\]\]/e', 'mywiki_internal_link (\'\\1\')');

echo Slimdown::render ('Check [[This Page]] out!');

A longer example

A block quote > across two lines. More text...");">



echo Slimdown::render ("# Title

And *now* [a link](http://www.google.com) to **follow** and [another](http://yahoo.com/).

* One
* Two
* Three

## Subhead

One **two** three **four** five.

One __two__ three _four_ five __six__ seven _eight_.

1. One
2. Two
3. Three

More text with `inline($code)` sample.

> A block quote
> across two lines.

Code blocks - dont close correctly
Firstly, thank you for this very easy to use library!

Im not sure if Im building my markdown incorrectly, but codeblocks do not seem to close correctly.

eg. If my code is as follows (first block) it appears as though it was written as beneath (second block):

--

This is some text ``` this is some code ``` This is some more text ``` this is some more code ```

--

This is some text ``` this is some code This is some more text this is some more code ```
