Custom extension

This module provides a simple implementation for icons that are bundled in your application resources using custom DelimiterProcessor. It can be used as a reference when dealing with new functionality based on delimiters.

# Hello @ic-android-black-24

**Please** click @ic-home-green-24 (home icon) if you want to go home.

Here we will substitute elements starting with @ic- for icons that we have in our resources:

  • @ic-android-black-24 -> R.drawable.ic_android_black_24dp
  • @ic-home-green-24 -> R.drawable.ic_home_green_24dp

In order to provide reliable parsing we need to have delimiters around desired content. So, @ic-home-green-24 would become @ic-home-green-24@. This is current limitation of commonmark-java library that Markwon uses underneath. There is an ongoing issue that might change this in future thought.

But as we known the pattern beforehand it's pretty easy to pre-process raw markdown and make it the way we want it. Please refer to IconProcessor#process method for the reference.

So, the our steps would be:

  • prepare raw markdown (wrap icons with @ if it's not already)
  • construct a Parser with our registered delimiter processor
  • parse markdown and obtain a Node
  • create a node visitor that will additionally visit custom node (IconNode)
  • use markdown
