A transformation and parsing framework for converting markdown content to HTML, PDF, DOCX, Slate (for rich-text editing) and other structured document object models (DOMs).
Top level repository (markdown-transform), with sub packages. Each sub-package is published as an independent npm module using npm workspaces:
- markdown-cli : command line utilities
- markdown-transform : High-level API to transform files into different formats
- markdown-common : converts between markdown strings and the CommonMark DOM
- markdown-cicero : converts between the CommonMark DOM and the CiceroMark DOM
- markdown-template : converts between JSON data + markdown strings and TemplateMark
- markdown-slate : converts between the CiceroMark DOM and the Slate DOM
- markdown-html : converts between the CiceroMark DOM and HTML
- markdown-pdf : converts between a PDF file and the CiceroMark DOM
- markdown-docx : converts a DOCX file to the CiceroMark DOM
- markdown-it-cicero : markdown-it plugin for contracts and CiceroMark
- markdown-it-template : markdown-it plugin for templates and TemplateMark
The CommonMark DOM is a model for the elements of CommonMark (the specification for markdown text), expressed as a Concerto schema, and serialized as a JSON graph.
The schema is defined here: https://models.accordproject.org/markdown/commonmark@0.2.0.html
CiceroMark defines markdown documents with embedded clauses, where each clause is an instance of a template, specified using TemplateMark.
The CiceroMark DOM extends the CommonMark DOM, defining nodes for Clause, Variable and Formula etc.
The schema is defined here: https://models.accordproject.org/markdown/ciceromark@0.3.0.html
TemplateMark defines markdown documents with syntax for embedded variables, optional blocks, formulas etc. It is used to define Accord Project templates.
The TemplateMark DOM extends the CommonMark DOM, defining nodes for ClauseDefinition, VariableDefinition and ForumulaDefinition etc.
The schema is defined here: https://models.accordproject.org/markdown/templatemark.html
The Slate DOM is defined by the Slate HTML content-editable WYSIWYG editing framework.
To install the command-line interface:
npm install -g @accordproject/markdown-cli
This will install the markus command-line for markdown transform. To get command-line help:
markus --help
npm install
Then run:
npm run test
This command uses npm workspaces to run the tests for each package in the monorepo.
Accord Project is an open source, non-profit, initiative working to transform contract management and contract automation by digitizing contracts. Accord Project operates under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation. The technical charter for the Accord Project can be found here.
The Accord Project technology is being developed as open source. All the software packages are being actively maintained on GitHub and we encourage organizations and individuals to contribute requirements, documentation, issues, new templates, and code.
