All of its functionality now exists in [`league/commonmark`](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark) 1.3+ under the `League\CommonMark\Extension\SmartPunct` namespace, so you should upgrade to that version and use that bundled extension instead of this one. Overview -------- [](#overview) Intelligently converts ASCII quotes, dashes, and ellipses to their Unicode equivalents. For use with the [`league/commonmark` Markdown parser for PHP](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark). For example, this Markdown... ``` "CommonMark is the PHP League's Markdown parser," she said. "It's super-configurable... you can even use additional extensions to expand its capabilities -- just like this one!" ``` Will result in this HTML: ``` “CommonMark is the PHP League’s Markdown parser,” she said. “It’s super-configurable… you can even use additional extensions to expand its capabilities – just like this one!” ``` Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require league/commonmark-ext-smartpunct ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Extensions can be added to any new `Environment`: ``` use League\CommonMark\CommonMarkConverter; use League\CommonMark\Environment; use League\CommonMark\Ext\SmartPunct\SmartPunctExtension; // Obtain a pre-configured Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers ready-to-go $environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment(); // Add this extension $environment->addExtension(new SmartPunctExtension()); // Set your configuration $config = [ 'smartpunct' => [ 'double_quote_opener' => '“', 'double_quote_closer' => '”', 'single_quote_opener' => '‘', 'single_quote_closer' => '’', ], ]; // Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown! $converter = new CommonMarkConverter($config, $environment); echo $converter->convertToHtml('# Hello World!'); ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.
