GFM

GFM is a small module to convert GitHub Flavored Markdown to HTML.

Usage

GFM offers two methods, gfm and markdown.

gfm simply preprocesses the parts of Markdown that GitHub Flavored Markdown is interested in, without converting the Markdown to HTML.

markdown does this as well as passing the result through the markdown module to generate HTML.

>>> import gfm
>>> string = "Roses are red\nViolets are blue"
>>> gfm.gfm(string)
'Roses are red  \nViolets are blue'
>>> gfm.markdown(string)
'<p>Roses are red<br />\nViolets are blue</p>'

Installation

pip install gfm
