markdown-it-blockquote-cite

This is a fork from https://github.com/bitcrowd/markdown-it-attribution which adjusts the functionality to our needs, removes most of the features we don't use and refactors the code a bit. It's a very specialized version of the original plugin, so please use at your own risk.

Namely this plugin allows to generate proper <blockquote> tags with nested <cite> tags, just like this:

> Quoted text here. Lorem ipsom etc
> More quoted text here. Lorem ipsom etc
> --- Ms. Cited Name-Here

Will be rendered as:

<blockquote>
  <p>Quoted text here. Lorem ipsum etc</p>
  <p>More quoted text here. Lorem ipsum etc</p>
  <cite>Ms. Cited Name-Here</cite>
</blockquote>

Install

yarn add bitcrowd/markdown-it-blockquote-cite#master

If you don't use yarn:

npm install --save bitcrowd/markdown-it-blockquote-cite#master

Usage

import Markdown from 'markdown-it';
import MarkdownBlockquoteCite from './markdown-it-blockquote-cite';

const mdit = new Markdown().use(MarkdownBlockquoteCite, { attributionPrefix: '---' });
const blockquote = [
  '> Quoted text here. Lorem ipsom etc',
  '> More quoted text here. Lorem ipsom etc',
  '> --- Ms. Cited Name-Here'
];

mdit.render(blockquote.join('\n'));

Options are optional, attributionPrefix defaults to --;
