Overview

The main interface to kramdown.

This class provides a one-stop-shop for using kramdown to convert text into various output formats. Use it like this:

require 'kramdown'
doc = Kramdown::Document.new('This *is* some kramdown text')
puts doc.to_html

The #to_html method is a shortcut for using the Converter::Html class. See #method_missing for more information.

The second argument to the ::new method is an options hash for customizing the behaviour of the used parser and the converter. See ::new for more information!

Constructor Details

#initialize(source, options = {}) ⇒ Document

Create a new Kramdown document from the string source and use the provided options. The options that can be used are defined in the Options module.

The special options key :input can be used to select the parser that should parse the source. It has to be the name of a class in the Kramdown::Parser module. For example, to select the kramdown parser, one would set the :input key to Kramdown. If this key is not set, it defaults to Kramdown.

The source is immediately parsed by the selected parser so that the root element is immediately available and the output can be generated.

  @options = Options.merge(options).freeze
  parser = (options[:input] || 'kramdown').to_s
  parser = parser[0..0].upcase + parser[1..-1]
  if Parser.const_defined?(parser)
    @root, @warnings = Parser.const_get(parser).parse(source, @options)

end

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(id, *attr, &block) ⇒ Object

Check if a method is invoked that begins with to_ and if so, try to instantiate a converter class (i.e. a class in the Kramdown::Converter module) and use it for converting the document.

For example, to_html would instantiate the Kramdown::Converter::Html class.
