Are there any examples with Markdown parsers other than Marked?

[caraya]

I'm trying to get nunjucks-markdown to work with gulp-nunjucks-renderer and makrdown-it instead of Marked. I would use examples if any where available. They all seem to be based on Marked so whoever wants to use a different parser is on his own.

Does anyone have a working example of using nunjucks-markdown with markdown-it or another parser?

It's not tied to marked. Just pass a different renderer to the register function as stated in the readme.

The reason why I ask is that I tried it with Markdown-it and it did not work but when I switch to Marked, it does. That's why having a working example with a different parser and made it work would be very helpful. It would also help me to try and isolate if the problem is with this plugin or with the renderer.

I tried it with gulp-nunjuks and gulp-nunjucks-render as the rendererer and it didn't work with either of them.

The register function expects a function that takes markdown as a string and returns html as a string. I've never used Markdown-it, but from the readme I imagine it's something like...

var nunjucks = require('nunjucks'),
    markdown = require('nunjucks-markdown'),
    md = require('markdown-it')();

var env = nunjucks.configure('views');

markdown.register(env, md.render);
// or
markdown.register(env, text => md.render(text));

If the first line doesn't work, use the second.

The parser works but I'm getting different errors depending on the plugin I use:

If I use gulp-nunjuck's compile method, it renders the plugin with undefined whenever I use markdown in the content, but it renders fine if I use HTML

if I use gulp-markdown-render then I geet this error:

[08:03:43] Template render error in plugin "gulp-nunjucks"
Message:
    (unknown path) [Line 3, Column 4]
  unknown block tag: markdown
Details:
    fileName: /Users/carlos/code/static-gen-njk/src/pages/css-containment.md
    domainEmitter: [object Object]
    domainThrown: false

So the problem doesn't appear to be with this plugin, at least not directly. Thanks for helping me troubleshoot

I gotcha. I haven't really actively worked on this plugin in a long time, so it's not without reason that some things need to be updated. As you say though, that seems non-related. If you learn otherwise let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it.
