markdown-it-deflist.rs

A markdown-it.rs plugin to process definition lists.

It is based on the pandoc definition:

Term 1

:   Definition 1

Term 2 with *inline markup*

:   Definition 2

        { some code, part of Definition 2 }

    Third paragraph of definition 2.

See the tests for more examples.

Usage

let parser = &mut markdown_it::MarkdownIt::new();
markdown_it::plugins::cmark::add(md);
markdown_it_deflist::add(parser);
parser.parse("term\n: definition").render();
// <dl>\n<dt>term</dt>\n<dd>definition</dd>\n</dl>\n
