Parsed
A generic content parser based on the devto post format, with front matter and liquid tag support. Parsed uses league/commonmark as base markdown parser.
Current liquid tags implemented:
- HTML Video embed (mp4):
{% video path_to_video.mp4 %}
- HTML Audio embed (mp3):
{% audio path_to_audio.mp3 %}
- Twitter embed:
{% twitter tweet_id %}
- Youtube video embed:
{% youtube video_id %}
- GitHub File (Gists not supported atm):
{% github full_path_to_repo_file %}
More to come, contributions welcome.
Installation
composer require librarianphp/parsed
Usage Examples
<?php
use Parsed\Content;
use Parsed\ContentParser;
$content = "---\n";
$content .= "title: Content Title\n";
$content .= "description: My Description\n";
$content .= "custom: custom\n";
$content .= "---\n";
$content .= "## Testing";
$article = new Content($content);
$article->parse(new ContentParser(), true);
print_r($article);
Parsed\Content Object
(
[raw] => ---
title: Content Title
description: My Description
custom: custom
---
## Testing
[front_matter] => Array
(
[title] => Content Title
[description] => My Description
[custom] => custom
)
[body_markdown] => ## Testing
[body_html] => <h2>Testing</h2>
)
Obtaining Front Matter
There are two methods to work with the front matter: frontMatterHas
and frontMatterGet
:
$article = new Content($content);
$article->parse(new ContentParser(), true);
if ($article->frontMatterHas('title')) {
return $article->frontMatterGet('title');
}
Creating Custom Liquid Tags
Liquid tags are classes that implement the CustomTagParserInterface
. They need to implement a method named parse
, which receives the string provided to the liquid tag when called from the markdown file. For instance, this is the full code for the video
liquid tag parser class:
<?php
#src/CustomTagParser/VideoTagParser.php
namespace Parsed\CustomTagParser;
use Parsed\CustomTagParserInterface;
class VideoTagParser implements CustomTagParserInterface
{
public function parse($tag_value, array $params = [])
{
return "<video controls>" .
"<source src=\"$tag_value\" type=\"video/mp4\">" .
"Your browser does not support the video tag." .
"</video>";
}
}
You'll have to include your custom tag parser class within the ContentParser:
$parser = new \Parsed\ContentParser();
$parser->addCustomTagParser('video', new VideoTagParser());
Note: The built-in tag parsers are already registered within ContentParser. These are: video
, audio
, twitter
, youtube
and github
.
For instance, if you have in your markdown:
{% video /videos/test.mp4 %}
It will convert to the tag into the following code:
<video controls>
<source src="/videos/test.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
Tests
Parsed uses Pest as testing framework. To run the tests:
./vendor/bin/pest
