jidaikobo/php-markdown

A few additions to the popular michelf/php-markdown. This library provides custom enhancements and overrides to the original Markdown parser, tailored for specific needs.

Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require jidaikobo/php-markdown

Usage

Here's how you can use the library in your project:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Jidaikobo\MarkdownExtra;

$table = "
## heading

| Header 1 | Header 2 |
|----------|----------|
| Row 1   :| Cell 1   |
| Row 2   :| Cell 2   |
|:capt.


| scope row:| scope col |
|-----------|-----------|
| Row 1    :| Row2      |
";

$html = MarkdownExtra::defaultTransform($table);

echo $html;

Custom Enhancements

This library adds specific parsing behaviors:

1. Row Headers in Tables

By adding a colon (:) at the end of a cell, you can mark it as a row header (th):

| Name     | Age | City       |
|----------|-----|------------|
| Alice   :| 30  | New York   |
| Bob     :| 25  | San Francisco |

You can change the scope of th to row by adding a colon (:) to the end of the header cell:

| Values  :| Age | City       |
|----------|-----|------------|
| Alice   :| 30  | New York   |
| Bob     :| 25  | San Francisco |

2. Table Captions

If the last row of the table starts with a colon (:), it will be treated as a caption:

| Name    | Age | City          |
|---------|-----|---------------|
| Alice   | 30  | New York      |
| Bob     | 25  | San Francisco |
|: This is a caption for the table.

3. Add file type and size to Link text

When the link destination is a file, the file type and file size are added to the link string. Sets the relationship between a URL and a path on the server.

MarkdownExtra::setTargetUrl('https://example.com');
MarkdownExtra::setReplacePath('/var/www/public_html/example.com');

[link text](https://example.com/files/example.zip)

<a href="https://example.com/files/example.zip">link text (zip, 1.2MB)</a>

4. figcaption

The image and em notation are arranged side by side without line breaks.

*caption*

<figure>

<figcaption>caption</figcaption>
