onMatch method

  1. @override
bool onMatch(
  1. InlineParser parser,
  2. Match match
)
override

Processes match, adding nodes to parser and possibly advancing parser.

Returns whether the caller should advance parser by match[0].length.

Implementation

@override
bool onMatch(InlineParser parser, Match match) {
  var chars = match.match;
  var char = chars.codeUnitAt(1);
  // Insert the substitution. Why these three charactes are replaced with
  // their equivalent HTML entity referenced appears to be missing from the
  // CommonMark spec, but is very present in all of the examples.
  // https://talk.commonmark.org/t/entity-ification-of-quotes-and-brackets-missing-from-spec/3207
  if (char == $double_quote) {
    parser.addNode(Text('"'));
  } else if (char == $lt) {
    parser.addNode(Text('<'));
  } else if (char == $gt) {
    parser.addNode(Text('>'));
  } else {
    parser.addNode(Text(chars[1]));
  }
  return true;
}
