Markdownify
Markdownify is a jQuery plugin that makes any input/textarea a markdown editing field.
Install
$ bower install markdownify
Usage
Create the HTML that markdownify will use. By default it will look for a textarea as the input for the markdown and a button as the element to bind a click event that converts the value of the textarea to HTML.
<div class="workspace"> <textarea></textarea> <button>Convert To Html</button> </div>To use the plugin, select an element that wraps the input and button you want to enhance. When the button (or any clickable element) is clicked, the input with the markdown will replace the markdownified element.
// We markdownify all elements with the workspace class $('.workspace').markdownify();Options
input Allows you to change the selector used to find the input field where the markdown will be entered *submit Allows you to change the selector used to find the element that will bind to the click event *wrapper Specify the element to wrap the new HTML created from markdown.
// Fully configured $('.workspace').markdownify({ wrapper: $('<div class="something">'), input: '.special-input', submit: '.special-button' });View Demo
