mdvis

A quick and dirty way to visualize folders containing lot of markdown files.

Often I need to check lots of markdown documents stored, for example, in git repositories. Opening and reading those files in a text editor, while an easy task, is not a pleasant reading experience. Navigating through the files on Github can be a pain.

I sketched this little program, so you can quickly go through all the .md files contained in a folder (and its sub-folders) in the browser as if you were seeing them on Github (even off-line).

Install

This package is destined only to python 3 users.

If you use pip just run the following command:

$ pip install mdvis

on many operating systems python 3 is not the default version in this case the command should be:

pip3 install mdvis

Without resorting to pip to install you will need to clone the repository and run:

$ python setup.py install

Note: On some systems you might need to use sudo

Usage

Go to a given folder and type on the terminal:

$ mdvis

This should launch a new tab in your browser
