Twig Markdown Extension
=======================

[](#twig-markdown-extension)

**WARNINIG**: This package is deprecate; migrate to `twig/markdown-extra` instead.

This package provides a Markdown to HTML filter (`markdown`) and an HTML to Markdown filter (`html_to_markdown`) for Twig and a Symfony bundle.

If you are not using Symfony, register the extension on Twig's `Environment`manually:

```
use Twig\Markdown\MarkdownExtension;
use Twig\Environment;

$twig = new Environment(...);
$twig->addExtension(new MarkdownExtension());
```

You must also register the extension runtime (skip this step if you are using Symfony or a framework with a Twig integration):

```
use Twig\Markdown\DefaultMarkdown;
use Twig\Markdown\MarkdownRuntime;
use Twig\RuntimeLoader\RuntimeLoaderInterface;

$twig->addRuntimeLoader(new class implements RuntimeLoaderInterface {
    public function load($class) {
        if (MarkdownRuntime::class === $class) {
            return new MarkdownRuntime(new DefaultMarkdown());
        }
    }
});
```

Use the `markdown` and `html_to_markdown` filters from a Twig template:

```
{% filter markdown %}
Title
======

Hello!
{% endfilter %}

{% filter html_to_markdown %}

        Hello!

{% endfilter %}
```

Note that you can indent the Markdown content as leading whitespaces will be removed consistently before conversion:

```
{% filter markdown %}
    Title
    ======

    Hello!
{% endfilter %}
```

You can also add some options by passing them as an argument to the filter:

```
{% filter html_to_markdown({hard_break: false}) %}

        Hello!

{% endfilter %}
```

You can also use the filters on an included file:

```
{{ include('some_template.html.twig')|html_to_markdown }}

{{ include('some_template.markdown.twig')|markdown }}
```
