afeld / html_pipeline_rails Goto Github PK

Hello Aiden! Your colleague James Dennes recommended your gem (html_pipeline_rails) to render markdown on my personal RoR website. After that I looked it up, and as I understand, you can use your gem to render complete views in Markdown using the Markdown .md extension. However I would like to know how I’d go about rendering part of a view in markdown. Warning, I am fairly new to Ror. Here’s what I’m trying to accomplish: I’m trying to build an admin system which can be used to post articles on my website. So for an article I have a form with a ‚title’ and ‚body’ field. I would like to format my text input in the ,body’ field in Markdown, and when the article is rendered on the website, it will look like the ‚Github Style’ Markdown. Is there a way to accomplish this using your gem?

...slash make it possible to access the page metadata (titles, headers, etc.) from the controllers/views. Example:

18F/C2#407

Whenever my app/views/shared/_test.html.md is rendered the output is HTML escaped. Which causes all of the output from the markdown to be displayed as HTML tags instead of being rendered.

Source

panel "Test" do
  render "shared/test"
end

Output

Should the string's output be marked #html_safe in the handler? Has anyone else seen a similar issue?

I'm using Rails 4.1.1.
