markdown #
Markdown view generator for Angel.
With this plug-in, you can easily serve static sites without doing more than writing simple Markdown. Thus, it is a friendly choice for writing API documentation or other tedious HTML-writing tasks.
Installation #
In your pubspec.yaml:
dependencies:
angel_framework: ^1.0.0
angel_markdown: ^1.0.0
Usage #
It's very straightforward to configure an Angel server to use Markdown:
configureServer(Angel app) async {
await app.configure(markdown(
// The directory where your views are located.
new Directory('views'),
));
}
You can then generate HTML on-the-fly in a request handler.
Assuming your view directory contained a file named hello.md, the
following would render it as an HTML response:
configureServer(Angel app) async {
app.get('/hello', (res) => res.render('hello'));
}
package:angel_markdown by default searches for files with a .md extension; however,
you can easily override this.
Interpolation #
angel_markdown can interpolate the values of data from locals before building the Markdown.
For example, with the following template species.md:
# Species: {{species.name}}
The species *{{species.genus.name}} {{species.name}}* is fascinating...
You can render as follows:
requestHandler(ResponseContext res) {
return res.render('species', {
'species': new Species('sapiens', genius: 'homo')
});
}
To disable interpolation for a single bracket, prefix it with an @, ex: @{{raw | not_interpolated | angular}}.
Templates #
Markdown is frequently used to build the content of sites, but not the templates. You might want to wrap the content of pages in a custom template to apply pretty CSS and JS, etc:
configureServer(Angel app) async {
await app.configure(
markdown(
// The directory where your views are located.
new Directory('views'), template: (content, Map locals) {
return '''<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>${locals['title']} - My Site</title>
</head>
<body>
$content
</body>
</html>
''';
}),
);
}
The template function will have access to whatever values were passed to the renderer,
or an empty Map.
Enhancing Markdown #
You can pass an extensionSet to add additional features to the Markdown renderer.
By default, this plug-in configures it to enable Github-flavored Markdown.
