lowdown_nroff_rndr3
Render markdown into roff
Usage
#include <sys/queue.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <lowdown.h>
int
lowdown_nroff_rndr(struct lowdown_buf *out, void *arg, const struct lowdown_node *n);
Library
library “liblowdown”
Overview
Renders a node tree n created by lowdown_doc_parse(3) or lowdown_diff(3) using the roff renderer arg as returned by lowdown_nroff_new(3). The output is written into out, which must be initialised and freed by the caller.
The output consists of roff output using the ms or man macro packages.
Return values
Returns zero on failure to allocate memory, non-zero on success.
Examples
The following parses b of length bsz and outputs in groff_ms(7) format.
struct lowdown_buf *out;
struct lowdown_doc *doc;
struct lowdown_node *n;
void *rndr;
if ((doc = lowdown_doc_new(NULL)) == NULL)
err(1, NULL);
if ((n = lowdown_doc_parse(doc, NULL, b, bsz, NULL)) == NULL)
err(1, NULL);
if ((out = lowdown_buf_new(256)) == NULL)
err(1, NULL);
if ((rndr = lowdown_nroff_new(NULL)) == NULL)
err(1, NULL);
if (!lowdown_nroff_rndr(out, rndr, n))
err(1, NULL);
fwrite(out->data, 1, out->size, stdout);
