Python-Markdown 2.0 Release Notes
=================================

We are happy to release Python-Markdown 2.0, which has been over a year in the
making. We have rewritten significant portions of the code, dramatically
extending the extension API, increased performance, and added numerous
extensions to the distribution (including an extension that mimics PHP Markdown
Extra), all while maintaining backward compatibility with the end user API in
version 1.7.

Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6. We have even
released a version converted to Python 3.0!

Backwards-incompatible Changes
------------------------------

While Python-Markdown has experienced numerous internal changes, those changes
should only affect extension authors. If you have not written your own
extensions, then you should not need to make any changes to your code.
However, you may want to ensure that any third party extensions you are using
are compatible with the new API.

The new extension API is fully [documented](../extensions/api.md) in the docs.
Below is a summary of the significant changes:

What's New in Python-Markdown 2.0
---------------------------------

Thanks to the work of Artem Yunusov as part of GSoC 2008, Python-Markdown uses
ElementTree internally to build the (X)HTML document from markdown source text.
This has resolved various issues with the older home-grown NanoDOM and made
notable increases in performance.

Artem also refactored the Inline Patterns to better support nested patterns
which has resolved many inconsistencies in Python-Markdown's parsing of the
markdown syntax.

The core parser had been completely rewritten, increasing performance and, for
the first time, making it possible to override/add/change the way block level
content is parsed.

Python-Markdown now parses markdown source text more closely to the other
popular implementations (Perl, PHP, etc.) than it ever has before. With the
exception of a few minor insignificant differences, any difference should be
considered a bug, rather than a limitation of the parser.

The option to return HTML4 output as apposed to XHTML has been added. In
addition, extensions should be able to easily add additional output formats.

As part of implementing markdown in the Dr. Project project (a Trac fork), among
other things, David Wolever refactored the "extension" keyword so that it
accepts either the extension names as strings or instances of extensions. This
makes it possible to include multiple extensions in a single module.

Numerous extensions are included in the distribution by default. See
[available_extensions](../extensions/index.md) for a complete list.

Python-Markdown 2.1 Release Notes
=================================

We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.1 which makes many
improvements on 2.0. In fact, we consider 2.1 to be what 2.0 should have been.
While 2.1 consists mostly of bug fixes, bringing Python-Markdown more inline
with other implementations, some internal improvements were made to the parser,
a few new built-in extensions were added, and HTML5 support was added.

Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 out
of the box. In fact, the same code base installs on Python 3.1 and 3.2 with no
extra work by the end user.

Backwards-incompatible Changes
------------------------------

While Python-Markdown has received only minor internal changes since the last
release, there are a few backward-incompatible changes to note:

What's New in Python-Markdown 2.1
---------------------------------

Three new extensions were added. [Attribute Lists](../extensions/attr_list.md),
which was inspired by Maruku's feature of the same name, [Newline to
Break](../extensions/nl2br.md), which was inspired by GitHub Flavored Markdown,
and Smart Strong, which fills a hole in the Extra extension.

HTML5 is now supported. All this really means is that new block level elements
introduced in the HTML5 spec are now properly recognized as raw HTML. As
valid  HTML5 can consist of either HTML4 or XHTML1, there is no need to add a
new HTML5  serializers. That said, `html5` and `xhtml5` have been added as
aliases of the `html4` and `xhtml1` serializers respectively.

An XHTML serializer has been added. Previously, ElementTree's XML serializer
was being used for XHTML output. With the new serializer we are able to avoid
more invalid output like empty elements (i.e., `<p />`) which can choke
browsers.

Improved support for Python 3.x. Now when running `setupy.py install` in
Python 3.1 or greater the 2to3 tool is run automatically. Note that Python 3.0
is not supported due to a bug in its 2to3 tool. If you must use Python-Markdown
with Python 3.0, it is suggested you manually use Python 3.1's 2to3 tool to
do a conversion.

extra work by the end user.

Backwards-incompatible Changes
------------------------------

While Python-Markdown has received only minor internal changes since the last
release, there are a few backward-incompatible changes to note:

What's New in Python-Markdown 2.1
---------------------------------

Three new extensions were added. [Attribute Lists](../extensions/attr_list.md),
which was inspired by Maruku's feature of the same name, [Newline to
Break](../extensions/nl2br.md), which was inspired by GitHub Flavored Markdown,
and Smart Strong, which fills a hole in the Extra extension.

HTML5 is now supported. All this really means is that new block level elements
introduced in the HTML5 spec are now properly recognized as raw HTML. As
valid  HTML5 can consist of either HTML4 or XHTML1, there is no need to add a
new HTML5  serializers. That said, `html5` and `xhtml5` have been added as
aliases of the `html4` and `xhtml1` serializers respectively.

An XHTML serializer has been added. Previously, ElementTree's XML serializer
was being used for XHTML output. With the new serializer we are able to avoid
more invalid output like empty elements (i.e., `<p />`) which can choke
browsers.

Improved support for Python 3.x. Now when running `setupy.py install` in
Python 3.1 or greater the 2to3 tool is run automatically. Note that Python 3.0
is not supported due to a bug in its 2to3 tool. If you must use Python-Markdown
with Python 3.0, it is suggested you manually use Python 3.1's 2to3 tool to
do a conversion.

Methods on instances of the Markdown class that do not return results can now
be changed allowing one to do `md.reset().convert(moretext)`.

The Markdown class was refactored so that a subclass could define its own
`build_parser` method which would build a completely different parser. In
other words, one could use the basic machinery in the markdown library to
build a parser of a different markup language without the overhead of building
the markdown parser and throwing it away.

Import statements within markdown have been improved so that third party
libraries can embed the markdown library if they desire (licensing permitting).

Added support for Python's `-m` command line option. You can run the markdown
package as a command line script. Do `python -m markdown [options] [args]`.
Note that this is only fully supported in Python 2.7+. Python 2.5 & 2.6
require you to call the module directly (`markdown.__main__`) rather than
the package (`markdown`). This does not work in Python 2.4.

The command line script has been renamed to `markdown_py` which avoids all the
various problems we had with previous names.  Also improved the command line
script to accept input on `stdin`.

The testing framework has been completely rebuilt using the Nose testing
framework. This provides a number of benefits including the ability to better
test the built-in extensions and other options available to change the parsing
behavior. See the Test Suite documentation for details.

Various bug fixes have been made, which are too numerous to list here. See the
[commit log](https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/commits/master) for a
complete history of the changes.

Python-Markdown 2.2 Release Notes
=================================

We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.2 which makes improvements on 2.1.
While 2.2 is primarily a bug fix release, some internal improvements were made
to the parser, and a few security issues were resolved.

Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 out
of the box.

Backwards-incompatible Changes
------------------------------

While Python-Markdown has received only minor internal changes since the last
release, there are a few backward-incompatible changes to note:

What's New in Python-Markdown 2.2
---------------------------------

The docs were refactored and can now be found at
`http://packages.python.org/Markdown/`. The docs are now maintained in the
Repository and are generated by the `setup.py build_docs` command.

The [Sane_Lists](../extensions/sane_lists.md)
extension was added. The Sane Lists Extension alters the behavior of the
Markdown List syntax to be less surprising by not allowing the mixing of list
types. In other words, an ordered list will not continue when an unordered list
item is encountered and vice versa.

Markdown now excepts a full path to an extension module. In other words, your
extensions no longer need to be in the primary namespace (and start with `mdx_`)
for Markdown to find them. Just do
`Markdown(extension=['path.to.some.module'])`.
As long as the provided module contains a compatible extension, the extension
will be loaded.

The BlockParser API was slightly altered to allow `blockprocessor.run` to return
`True` or `False` which provides more control to the block processor loop from
within any Blockprocessor instance.

Various bug fixes have been made. See the
[commit log](https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/commits/master)
for a complete history of the changes.

Python-Markdown 2.3 Release Notes

We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.3 which adds one new extension,
removes a few old (obsolete) extensions, and now runs on both Python 2 and
Python 3 without running the 2to3 conversion tool. See the list of changes
below for details.

Python-Markdown 2.5 Release Notes
=================================

We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.5 which adds a few new features
and fixes various bugs. See the list of changes below for details.

Python-Markdown version 2.5 supports Python versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4.

Backwards-incompatible Changes
------------------------------

[CodeHilite Extension]: ../extensions/code_hilite.md
[linenums]: ../extensions/code_hilite.md#usage

    If your code previously looked like this:
        html = markdown.markdown(text, same_mode=True)

    Then it is recommended that you change your code to read something like
    this:

        import bleach
        html = bleach.clean(markdown.markdown(text))

    If you are not interested in sanitizing untrusted text, but simply desire to
    escape raw HTML, then that can be accomplished through an extension which
    removes HTML parsing:

        from markdown.extensions import Extension

        class EscapeHtml(Extension):
            def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals):
                del md.preprocessors['html_block']
                del md.inlinePatterns['html']

        html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[EscapeHtml()])

    As the HTML would not be parsed with the above Extension, then the
    serializer will escape the raw HTML, which is exactly what happens now when
    `safe_mode="escape"`.

[Bleach]: https://bleach.readthedocs.io/
         html = markdown.markdown(text, ['extra'])
    Then it is recommended that you change it to read something like this:
        html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])

    !!! Note
        This change is being made as a result of deprecating `"safe_mode"` as
        the
        `safe_mode` argument was one of the positional arguments. When that
        argument
        is removed, the two arguments following it will no longer be at the
        correct
        position. It is recommended that you always use keywords when they are
        supported
        for this reason.

        markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])
    You should change your code to the following:
        markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['markdown.extensions.extra'])
    The same applies to the command line:
        $ python -m markdown -x markdown.extensions.extra input.txt

    See the [documentation](../library.md#extensions) for a full explanation
    of the current behavior.

    Additionally, a Class may be specified in the name. The class must be at the
    end of the name (which uses dot notation from PYTHONPATH) and be separated
    by a colon from the module.

    Therefore, if you were to import the class like this:
        from path.to.module import SomeExtensionClass
    Then the named extension would comprise this string:
        "path.to.module:SomeExtensionClass"

    This allows multiple extensions to be implemented within the same module and
    still accessible when the user is not able to import the extension directly
    (perhaps from a template filter or the command line).

    This also means that extension modules are no longer required to include the
    `makeExtension` function which returns an instance of the extension class.
    However, if the user does not specify the class name (she only provides
    `"path.to.module"`) the extension will fail to load without the
    `makeExtension` function included in the module. Extension authors will want
    to document carefully what is required to load their extensions.

[ex]: ../library.md#extensions

    Extension authors are encouraged to review the new methods available on the
    `markdown.extnesions.Extension` class for handling configuration and adjust
    their code going forward. The included extensions provide a model for best
    practices. See the [API] documentation for a full explanation.

# Python-Markdown 2.6 Release Notes

We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.6 which adds a few new features
and fixes various bugs. See the list of changes below for details.

Python-Markdown version 2.6 supports Python versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 as
well as PyPy.

## Backwards-incompatible Changes
### `safe_mode` Deprecated

Both `safe_mode` and the associated `html_replacement_text` keywords are
deprecated in version 2.6 and will raise a **`DeprecationWarning`**. The
`safe_mode` and `html_replacement_text` keywords will be ignored in the next
release. The so-called "safe mode" was never actually "safe" which has resulted
in many people having a false sense of security when using it. As an
alternative, the developers of Python-Markdown recommend that any untrusted
content be passed through an HTML sanitizer (like [Bleach]) after being
converted to HTML by markdown. In fact, [Bleach Whitelist] provides a curated
list of tags, attributes, and styles suitable for filtering user-provided HTML
using bleach.

If your code previously looked like this:

```python
html = markdown.markdown(text, safe_mode=True)
```

Then it is recommended that you change your code to read something like this:

```python
import bleach
from bleach_whitelist import markdown_tags, markdown_attrs
html = bleach.clean(markdown.markdown(text), markdown_tags, markdown_attrs)
```

If you are not interested in sanitizing untrusted text, but simply desire to
escape raw HTML, then that can be accomplished through an extension which
removes HTML parsing:

```python
from markdown.extensions import Extension

class EscapeHtml(Extension):
    def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals):
        del md.preprocessors['html_block']
        del md.inlinePatterns['html']

html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[EscapeHtml()])
```

As the HTML would not be parsed with the above Extension, then the serializer
will escape the raw HTML, which is exactly what happens now when
`safe_mode="escape"`.

[Bleach Whitelist]: https://github.com/yourcelf/bleach-whitelist

### Positional Arguments Deprecated

Positional arguments on the `markdown.Markdown()` class are deprecated as are
all except the `text` argument on the `markdown.markdown()` wrapper function.
Using positional arguments will raise a **`DeprecationWarning`** in 2.6 and an
error in the next release. Only keyword arguments should be used. For example,
if your code previously looked like this:

```python
html = markdown.markdown(text, [SomeExtension()])
```

Then it is recommended that you change it to read something like this:

```python
html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[SomeExtension()])
```

!!! Note
    This change is being made as a result of deprecating `"safe_mode"` as the
    `safe_mode` argument was one of the positional arguments. When that argument
    is removed, the two arguments following it will no longer be at the correct
    position. It is recommended that you always use keywords when they are
    supported for this reason.

### "Shortened" Extension Names Deprecated

In previous versions of Python-Markdown, the built-in extensions received
special status and did not require the full path to be provided. Additionally,
third party extensions whose name started with `"mdx_"` received the same
special treatment. This behavior is deprecated and will raise a
**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in the next release. Ensure
that you always use the full path to your extensions. For example, if you
previously did the following:

```python
markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])
```

You should change your code to the following:

```python
markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['markdown.extensions.extra'])
```

The same applies to the command line:

```python
python -m markdown -x markdown.extensions.extra input.txt
```

Similarly, if you have used a third party extension (for example `mdx_math`),
previously you might have called it like this:

```python
markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['math'])
```

As the `"mdx"` prefix will no longer be appended, you will need to change your
code as follows (assuming the file `mdx_math.py` is installed at the root of
your PYTHONPATH):

```python
markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['mdx_math'])
```

Extension authors will want to update their documentation to reflect the new
behavior.

See the [documentation](../library.md#extensions) for a full explanation
of the current behavior.

### Extension Configuration as Part of Extension Name Deprecated

The previously documented method of appending the extension configuration
options as a string to the extension name is deprecated and will raise a
**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in 2.7. The
[`extension_configs`](../library.md#extension_configs) keyword should be used
instead. See the [documentation](../library.md#extension_configs) for a full
explanation of the current behavior.

### HeaderId Extension Pending Deprecation

The HeaderId Extension is pending deprecation and will raise a
**`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6. The extension will be deprecated
in the next release and raise an error in the release after that. Use the [Table
of Contents][TOC] Extension instead, which offers most of the features of the
HeaderId Extension and more (support for meta data is missing).

Extension authors who have been using the `slugify` and `unique` functions
defined in the HeaderId Extension should note that those functions are now
defined in the Table of Contents extension and should adjust their import
statements accordingly (`from markdown.extensions.toc import slugify, unique`).

### The `configs` Keyword is Deprecated

Positional arguments and the `configs` keyword on the
`markdown.extension.Extension` class (and its subclasses) are deprecated. Each
individual configuration option should be passed to the class as a keyword/value
pair. For example. one might have previously initiated an extension subclass
like this:

```python
ext = SomeExtension(configs={'somekey': 'somevalue'})
```

That code should be updated to pass in the options directly:

```python
ext = SomeExtension(somekey='somevalue')
```

Extension authors will want to note that this affects the `makeExtension`
function as well. Previously it was common for the function to be defined as
follows:

```python
def makeExtension(configs=None):
    return SomeExtension(configs=configs)
```

Extension authors will want to update their code to the following instead:

```python
def makeExtension(**kwargs):
    return SomeExtension(**kwargs)
```

Failing to do so will result in a **`DeprecationWarning`** and will raise an
error in the next release. See the [Extension API][mext] documentation for more
information.

In the event that an `markdown.extension.Extension` subclass overrides the
`__init__` method and implements its own configuration handling, then the above
may not apply. However, it is recommended that the subclass still calls the
parent `__init__` method to handle configuration options like so:

```python
class SomeExtension(markdown.extension.Extension):
    def __init__(**kwargs):
        # Do pre-config stuff here
        # Set config defaults
        self.config = {
            'option1' : ['value1', 'description1'],
            'option2' : ['value2', 'description2']
        }
        # Set user defined configs
        super(MyExtension, self).__init__(**kwargs)
        # Do post-config stuff here
```

Note the call to `super` to get the benefits of configuration handling from the
parent class. See the [documentation][config] for more information.

[mext]: ../extensions/api.md#dot_notation

## What's New in Python-Markdown 2.6
### Official Support for PyPy

Official support for [PyPy] has been added. While Python-Markdown has most
likely worked on PyPy for some time, it is now officially supported and tested
on PyPy.

[PyPy]: https://pypy.org/
### YAML Style Meta-Data

<del>The [Meta-Data] Extension now includes optional support for [YAML] style
meta-data.</del> By default, the YAML deliminators are recognized, however, the
actual data is parsed as previously. This follows the syntax of [MultiMarkdown],
which inspired this extension.

<del>Alternatively, if the `yaml` option is set, then the data is parsed as
YAML.</del> <ins>As the `yaml` option was buggy, it was removed in 2.6.1. It is
suggested that a preprocessor (like [docdata]) or a third party extension be
used if you want true YAML support. See [Issue #390][#390] for a full
explanation.</ins>

[MultiMarkdown]: https://fletcherpenney.net/multimarkdown/#metadata
[Meta-Data]: ../extensions/meta_data.md
[YAML]: https://yaml.org/
[#390]:
[docdata]: https://github.com/waylan/docdata

### Table of Contents Extension Refactored

The [Table of Contents][TOC] Extension has been refactored and some new features
have been added. See the documentation for a full explanation of each feature
listed below:

[TOC]: ../extensions/toc.md
### Pygments can now be disabled

The [CodeHilite][ch] Extension has gained a new configuration option:
`use_pygments`. The option is `True` by default, however, it allows one to turn
off Pygments code highlighting (set to `False`) while preserving the language
detection features of the extension. Note that Pygments language guessing is not
used as that would 'use Pygments'. If a language is defined for a code block, it
will be assigned to the `<code>` tag as a class in the manner suggested by the
[HTML5 spec][spec] (alternate output will not be entertained) and could
potentially be used by a JavaScript library in the browser to highlight the code
block.

[ch]: ../extensions/code_hilite.md
[spec]: https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/text-level-semantics.html#the-code-element

### Miscellaneous

Test coverage has been improved including running [flake8]. While those changes
will not directly effect end users, the code is being better tested which will
benefit everyone.
