this is way too cool.

i can always use this during the prototype phase.
production phase would need to avoid php, ruby, python, etc. as the community for which i am building this typically looks down upon those. that's actually why and how i landed upon this list, i was looking for a markdown transformation script written in perl, and found it on the daringfireball.net website.

Hello,

I have some personal (public) work that could interest you:

- first a simple PHP parser [6]
(https://github.com/piwi/markdown-extended) quite easy to use and you
can run on any server using PHP 5.3+

- then an online webservice to transform a markdown content available
at http://api.aboutmde.org/ [7] that uses a simple Webservice
interface available at https://github.com/piwi/mde-service [8] (with
the documentation of the online tool)

- finally, a simple Apache configuration to display any ".md" file
parsing it with the PHP parser: https://github.com/piwi/mde-cgi [9]
Hope this could help.

Okay then, well if you are running in php, and you got the
parsedown.php file as well, then you can give this a shot.

Just modify the .htaccess file rewrite rule from "RewriteCond
%{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*).md" to "RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*).html"

See if that works for you.

i did muse around with that approach, but, that's not what is
expected for my use case.

i need the markdown content to be dynamically transformed to
(x)html on the server.
this is to allow collaborators on the documentation to send in only
diff files for corrections, additions, etc. which would be
plain-text, which is easier to understand for non web (html + css)
developers.

i guess i missed mentioning the project for which i am doing this,
it is for the "openbsd faq".

this is just a test run, once i succeed, i intend to convert the
entire "faq" to markdown, probably by hand, set up a server for the
demo, before submitting it to the openbsd crowd for consideration.

Have you considered compiling the website on your computer first

uploading it as a static website?

E.g. via Jekyll?
hi,

have been tinkering with markdown for a few hours now, so am still
a
noob.

would like to use it for a documentation project which will be
served
over the web.

need to know if there's any way to transform markdown content to
(x)html on the fly at the web server level?

use case:
a web server with the above capabilities would have the document
root
folder holding a bunch of markdown files and a 'css' file.
on visiting that web server's address over 'http', the index.md [4]
[1]
file would get transformed into (x)html, pick-up the 'css' and show
a
beautiful page to the visitor.
all this, while i would be busy writing plain old markdown.

i am sorry if this has been asked out here before, but i couldn't
find any such queries, perhaps my googling skills are bad. :)

thanks,

~mayuresh
