Overview

Markdown has become a very popular type of common 'wikialike' Syntax used across the internet. Ever so often requests or project ideas are popping up in the Tiki dev-list to integrate Markdown to Tiki as an option besides WikiSyntax or WYSIWYG or to even replace the rock solid WikiSyntax. This is the developer page to conflate all ideas and thoughts and to provide a starting point for the person(s) who want to take on the project and to bring Markdown into the Tikiverse.


The CommonMark spec, when printed, is over 100 pages! So it is very very elaborate.

Limitations of Markdown compared to WikiSyntax

simple syntax examples

Copy to clipboard
italic Markdown: *italic* or _italic_ WikiSyntax: ''italic'' bold Markdown: **bold** or __bold__ WikiSyntax: __bold__ underlined Markdown: ??? WikiSyntax: ===underlined=== strike through Markdown: ??? Markdown (Pandoc, GFM): ~~strikethrough~~ WikiSyntax: --strikethrough--

combined syntax examples

Copy to clipboard
italic + bold Markdown: _**italic bold**_ WikiSyntax: ''__italic bold__'' or __''bold italic''__ underline + strike through + italic + bold Markdown: ??? WikiSyntax: ===--''__underline strikethrough italic bold__''--== or __''--===bold italic strikethrough underline===--''__ or ...

Markdown and WikiPlugins

WikiPlugins can be used all over Tiki as extended part of the WikiSyntax and inside the WYSIWYG ... this has to be possible with Markdown as well, respectively the potential Tiki Markdown parser has to parse WikiPlugins!

First implementation done by luci for Tiki20 as PluginMarkdown by using the CommonMark for PHP lib.

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
