Overview

This class provides the primary interface for creating a parser. It ties a block and span parser together with a handler.

By default, it will parse the standard Markdown dialect, but you can provide alternate block or span parser classes.

Methods

This class provides the following methods:

Markdent::Parser->new(...)

This method creates a new parser. It accepts the following parameters:

•

dialects => $name or [ $name1, $name2 ]

You can use this to apply dialect roles to the standard parser class.

If a dialect name does not contain a namespace separator (::), the constructor looks for roles named "Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::BlockParser" and "Markdent::Dialect::${dialect}::SpanParser".

If a dialect name does contain a namespace separator, it is used a prefix - $dialect::BlockParser and $dialect::SpanParser.

If any relevant roles are found, they will be used by the parser.

It is okay if a given dialect only provides a block or span parser, but not both.

•

block_parser_class => $class

This defaults to Markdent::Parser::BlockParser, but can be any class which implements the Markdent::Role::BlockParser role.

•

span_parser_class => $class

This defaults to Markdent::Parser::SpanParser, but can be any class which implements the Markdent::Role::SpanParser role.

•

handler => $handler

This can be any object which implements the Markdent::Role::Handler role. It is required.

$parser->parse( markdown => $markdown )

This method parses the given document. The parsing will cause events to be fired which will be passed to the parser's handler.

Roles

This class does the Markdent::Role::EventsAsMethods and Markdent::Role::Handler roles.
