Markdown Inline Extension For Pelican
=====================================
This plugin lets you customize inline HTML
within Markdown by extending Python's Markdown module.
Installation
------------
To enable, ensure that the `md_inline_extension` plugin is accessible.
Then add the following to settings.py:
PLUGINS = ["md_inline_extension"]
Usage
-----
By default, any Markdown text inside `[]...[]` will get wrapped in
`span` tags with a class of `pelican-inline`. For example:
`[]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit[]` will
become `Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit`
You can create your own inline patterns and associate them with
arbitrary classes and styles by using the `MD_INLINE` dictionary in settings.
The dictionary takes a pattern as key and expects either a string or a tuple
as a value. If a string is provided, then that will be the CSS class. If
a tuple is provided, then the first value will be the style, and the second
value (if present) will be the class. For example:
```
MD_INLINE = {
'+=+': ('color:red;', 'my-test-class'),
'|-|': ('color:blue;',),
'&^': 'my-other-text-class',
}
```
The above defines three new inline patterns:
1. **+=+**: Text within `+=+` will be wrapped in `span` tags like so
: `...`
2. **|-|**: Text within `|-|` will be wrapped in
`...`. Note - no class is present.
3. **&^**: Text within `&^` will be wrapped in
`...`. Note - no style present.
In order to work seamlessly with default inline patterns such as `*` and
`**`, it is important that your pattern not contain these characters. So
do not create patterns that are already part of a default Markdown
[span element](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#span).
