PHP Wikitext Parser
===================

[](#php-wikitext-parser)

The library provides an easy way to parse Wikitext in PHP.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Just run the following Composer command at the root of your project.

```
composer require jord-jd/php-wikitext-parser
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The most basic usage is to convert a Wikitext formatted string to plain text.

```
$plainText = (new WikitextParser())
    ->setWikitext($wikitext)
    ->parse();
```

### Alternative Format

[](#alternative-format)

You are also able to specify alternative formats to convert to, using the `setFormat` method. By default, this is set to plain text.

For example, you can convert Wikitext to HTML, as shown below.

```
$plainText = (new WikitextParser())
    ->setWikitext($wikitext)
    ->setFormat(Format::HTML)
    ->parse();
```

### Caching

[](#caching)

By default, file caching is used. If you wish, you can specify any PSR-6 compliant caching library. This is done using the `setCache` method as should below.

```
$cache = new OtherPsr6CacheItemPool();

$plainText = (new WikitextParser())
    ->setCache($cache)
    ->setWikitext($wikitext)
    ->parse();
```
