BBCode

Synopsis

The BBCode module helps ease the separation of core and frontend with the core (or submodules) being still able to say, what colors shall be used in it‘s responses. This is achieved by encoding formatting information using the BBCode tokens. This enables you to "pipe" layout information such as colors, style, fonttype, size and alignment through the core to the frontend.

Additionally it converts markups/codes between ANSI, HTML and BBCode almost freely ;)

Usage

  # Converting a bbcode string to ANSI and XHTML

  str = "this is [COLOR=red]red[/COLOR], this is [B]bold[/B]"
  print( BBCode.bbcode_to_ansi(str) )
  print( BBCode.bbcode_to_html(str) )
