# Downr [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/davidrivera/Downr.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/davidrivera/Downr) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/davidrivera/Downr.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/davidrivera/Downr) [![Inline docs](http://inch-pages.github.io/github/davidrivera/Downr.png)](http://inch-pages.github.io/github/davidrivera/Downr) [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/downr.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/downr) [![Dependency Status](https://gemnasium.com/davidrivera/Downr.svg)](https://gemnasium.com/davidrivera/Downr) Downr is an easy to use rails wrapper around a couple of different notable gems * [Redcarpet](https://github.com/vmg/redcarpet) * [Pygmentize](https://github.com/djanowski/pygmentize) * [Emoji](https://github.com/jsw0528/rails_emoji) ## So why use Downr Good question, the best I can come up with is that if you're working on a rails project, this library provides a really easy way to add markdown parsing to it quickly with all the nice Github Flavored Markdown you know and love. It also allows you to edit all of the base options for Redcarpet through initializers, and finally gives you a nice view helper. ## Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: gem 'downr' And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install downr after run $ rails g downr:install this will create an initializer in config/initializer/downr.rb ## Usage Crack open the initializer `config/initializers/downr.rb` and add/change any configuration options for the markdown rendering process. These options are passed straight to Redcarpet so you can head over [there](https://github.com/vmg/redcarpet) to check out all of the possible options. ### View Helpers I know what those are! ```haml render_markdown "# Hello World" ``` ### Or use directly ```ruby Downr::Markdown.render("# Hello World") ``` ## Tests Tests are run through the wonderful RSpec so just clone the library run `bundle` then `rake` ## Contributing 1.
