Library to convert rich text from Draft.js raw ContentState to Markdown, based on draftjs_exporter
Project description
> Library to convert rich text from Draft.js raw ContentState to Markdown, based on Draft.js exporter. > > 🚧 This is an experimental exporter with limited Markdown support – please use with caution.
Usage
This package is a Markdown export configuration for the Draft.js exporter. Specifically, it provides:
A Markdown-friendly exporter engine, with fallbacks to HTML tags.
Configuration for basic Markdown formatting.
First, install the package:
pip install draftjs_exporter_markdown
Then, to convert Draft.js content to Markdown:
And in Python:
from draftjs_exporter.html import HTML
from draftjs_exporter_markdown import BLOCK_MAP, ENGINE, ENTITY_DECORATORS, STYLE_MAP
# Initialise the exporter.
exporter = HTML({
# Those configurations are overridable like for draftjs_exporter.
'block_map': BLOCK_MAP,
'style_map': STYLE_MAP,
'entity_decorators': ENTITY_DECORATORS,
'engine': ENGINE,
})
markdown = exporter.render({
'entityMap': {},
'blocks': [{
'key': '6mgfh',
'text': 'Hello, world!',
'type': 'unstyled',
'depth': 0,
'inlineStyleRanges': [],
'entityRanges': []
}]
})
print(markdown)
You can also run an example by downloading this repository and then using python example.py.
Configuration
Please refer to the Draft.js exporter configuration documentation.
Supported Markdown formatting
The built-in configuration provides support for:
Inline styles: bold, italic, strikethrough, code
Blocks: paragraphs, heading levels, bullet and number lists, code blocks, blockquote
Images, links, and horizontal rules
Contrary to the main Draft.js exporter,
Nested / overlapping styles aren’t supported.
None of the content is escaped (HTML escaping is unnecessary for Markdown, and there is no Markdown escaping).
