NPM package

npm-creole is redesigned jscreole. Now it can work serverside as node.js package.

install:

npm install npm-creole

usage:

var Creole = require('npm-creole'),
	creole = new Creole(/*options*/);

console.log(creole.parse('= Header =')) //<h1>Header</h1>

Syntax was redesigned in such way that you can still use this package in browser.

No dependencies!

There are some mocha tests in tests lib. both test files are with .js ext

NAME

jscreole - Parse Creole into DOM

SYNOPSIS

var creole = new creole({
  interwiki: {
	  MeatballWiki: 'http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?',
	  TiddlyWiki: 'http://www.tiddlywiki.com/#',
	  WikiCreole: 'http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/',
	  Palindrome: function(link) {
			  return 'http://www.example.com/wiki/' + link.split('').reverse().join('');
		  }
  },
  linkFormat: '#'
});

var div = document.createElement('div');
creole.parse(div, "* This is [[Wikipedia:Wikitext|wikitext]]");

DESCRIPTION

This module implements Creole 1.0 parser, as defined by http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Creole1.0

Options

defaultImageText

Alternative text for an image with no alternative text

{{image.png}}

as opposed to empty alternative text

{{image.png|}}

Note that strict Creole 1.0 doesn't allow images with no alternative text.

interwiki

Interwiki map. Object properties' values are strings, arrays of one or two strings, or functions. The first string is a leading part of the URL. If the second string is given as well, it is a trailing part. If the value is a function, which takes a link identifier as an argument, its return value is the whole URL.

linkFormat

Internal links' format. Same format as in interwiki's properties.

strict

Whether the parser is strict Creole 1.0. For constructor only, i. e. non-overridable in C method. A non-strict parser allows images in tables and images with no alternative text.

NAME

creole._base - Parse text into DOM

SYNOPSIS

// Define grammar
var g = {
  para: { _tag: 'p',
	  _regex: /([ \t]*\S.+((\r?\n|\r)[ \t]*\S.*)*)/, _capture: 0 }
};
g._root = { _children: [ g.para ] };

// Create parser
var parser = new creole._base(g);

// Parse
var div = document.createElement('div');
parser.parse(div, 'para\n' +
				' continues\n\n' +
				'another para\n \n' +
				'yet another para');

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a simple recursive descent parser using regular expressions for lexical analysis. The result is stored into a DOM object, that can be then put in a document or traversed using standard DOM API.

Parser

new creole._base(grammar, options)

The constructor creates a new parser object given a grammar and options. The grammar is an object of any type, which must contain a root property, that also must be an object of any type. The root is cast to a type specified by C<this._ruleConstructor>, being C<creole._rule> by default. See L<"Rules"> for more info on defining rule objects.

Options are optional but if passed it must be an object. The only option available in C<creole._base> is C, which should be set C for Microsoft Internet Explorer compatibility. Derived objects and subinterfaces may extend the C object with their own options.

parse([node,] data, options)

This method parses flat text data and creates a DOM tree inside a given node, which should be a Node object. If options are passed, they override those passed to the constructor. Options merge at the first depth, merging nested options is not supported.

Rules

item _regex

A regular expression to match the input.

_capture

What should be captured for the output data: 0 for the whole matched substring, 1 and so on for corresponding capturing brackets. If not listed, data will be empty.

_replaceRegex

_replaceString

If set, captured data will be processed before output.

_tag

If set, captured data will be enclosed inside a new child element, otherwise they will be put in the current node.

_attrs

If set to an object, a new child element will have the given attributes.

_children

An array of grammar rules, which define possible child nodes.

_fallback

If there are chunks which don't match any child rule, they are being processed with this one.
