Markdent::Parser - A markdown parser
version 0.40
my $handler = Markdent::Handler::HTMLStream->new( ... ); my $parser = Markdent::Parser->new( dialect => ..., handler => $handler, ); $parser->parse( markdown => $markdown );
This class provides the primary interface for creating a parser. It ties a block and span parser together with a handler.
By default, it will parse the standard Markdown dialect, but you can provide alternate block or span parser classes.
This class provides the following methods:
This method creates a new parser. It accepts the following parameters:
dialects => $name or [ $name1, $name2 ]
You can use this to apply dialect roles to the standard parser class.
If a dialect name does not contain a namespace separator (::), the constructor looks for roles named Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::BlockParser and Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::SpanParser.
Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::BlockParser
Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::SpanParser
If a dialect name does contain a namespace separator, it is used a prefix - $dialect::BlockParser and $dialect::SpanParser.
$dialect::BlockParser
$dialect::SpanParser
If any relevant roles are found, they will be used by the parser.
It is okay if a given dialect only provides a block or span parser, but not both.
block_parser_class => $class
This defaults to Markdent::Parser::BlockParser, but can be any class which implements the Markdent::Role::BlockParser role.
span_parser_class => $class
This defaults to Markdent::Parser::SpanParser, but can be any class which implements the Markdent::Role::SpanParser role.
handler => $handler
This can be any object which implements the Markdent::Role::Handler role. It is required.
This method parses the given document. The parsing will cause events to be fired which will be passed to the parser's handler.
This class does the Markdent::Role::EventsAsMethods and Markdent::Role::Handler roles.
