Version 0.0.1 Created by Evan Coury
This ZF2 module simply adds Markdown support to your project. It utilizes the PHP Markdown library written by Michel Fortin which is a PHP port of the original perl implementation by John Gruber.
To install EdpMarkdown, simply recursively clone this repository (git clone --recursive) into your ZF2 modules directory and enable it in your
config/application.config.php file. That's it!
With this module installed, using Markdown in your view scripts is easy:
<?= $this->markdown('Hello, **this** is _Markdown_!'); ?>NOTE: For security purposes, the output SHOULD be sanitized if the Markdown is from an untrusted source. (@padraic says so!) See the Markdown documentation on inline HTML to understand why this is necessary.
By default, this module uses the "Markdown Extra"
parser. If you'd like to switch it to just use the normal markdown parser, you
can simply define the MARKDOWN_PARSER_CLASS, which PHP Markdown is configured
to check for. An easy place to do this would be in a config file such as
./config/autoload/global.php.
<?php
define('MARKDOWN_PARSER_CLASS', 'Markdown_Parser');
