Sam Ruby commented on WHIMSY-265:
---------------------------------
Overview. Display of reports in the board agenda tool is, unsurprisingly,
handled by
*[https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/www/board/agenda/views/pages/report.js.rb]*
Before display, the report text is run through a set of filters:
*[https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/22653438068b118d07f86803c6902bfc6a416a77/www/board/agenda/views/pages/report.js.rb#L85]*
Note that the selection of filters can be determined by the title of the report
(@@item.title).
Filters are methods that take a text string as input and produce a string as a
result.
Kramdown is a ruby gem that takes Markdown as input and produces html as
output. Usage can be found here:

> Support rendering of Markdown and/or Asciidoc

> Key: WHIMSY-265

> Project: Whimsy
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: BoardAgenda, Website
> Reporter: Joan Touzet
> Priority: Major
>
> This is a nice-to-have.
> Reports to the Board could be written in Markdown or Asciidoc. Optionally,
> they may want to tag themselves as being in this format via a one-line
> comment header or similar.
> Whimsy could then nicely format these reports if desired on the web
> interface. Or not, they're very readable as text formats.
> At the very least, Whimsy needs to not choke on Markdown or Asciidoc in
> submitted reports, which I believe it won't, but would be good to officially
> hear it doesn't.
