Maruku changelog

Changelog History

Page 2

• v0.5.3 Changes

  • 🔋 Features:

    • All HTML table attributes can be used (summary, width, frame, rules, border, cellspacing, cellpadding).

      The next version will hopefully use all HTML attributes.

    <!-- A version of Markdown that is more Japanese or something -->

  • 🐛 Bug fixes:

    • Crash on this line: (found by Aggelos Orfanakos)

      [test][]:
      

    • Regression with attribute system (found by Charles)

• v0.5.1 Changes

  • 🐛 Bug fixes:

    • Workaround for Internet Explorer bug: be very sure that ' is always written as '.
    • Support for empty images ref: ![image] and ![image][].
    • Fixed bug in parsing attribute lists definitions.

  • Minor things:

    • Now code blocks are written as a <code> element inside a <pre>, and <code> elements have both class and lang attributes set to the specified language.

      Example:

          Example
      {:lang=ruby}
      

      {:lang=markdown}

      produces:

      <pre><code class='ruby' lang='ruby'>Example</code></pre>
      

      {:lang=xml}

• v0.5.0 Changes

  • Syntax changes:

    • Compatibility with newest Markdown.pl: [text] as a synonim of [text][].

    • Meta data: the first IAL in a span environment now refers to the parent. This makes it possible to set attributes for cells:

      Head	Head

      {:r}  Hello    + ...
      
      {:r: scope='row'}
      

      The first cell will have the scope attribute set to row.

  • 🆕 New settings:

    • Disable the Maruku signature by setting maruku signature: false

  • Stricter doctype. By the way -- did I mention it? -- Maruku HTML has always been proper validating XHTML strict (if a page does not validate, please report it as a bug).

    Of course, this only matters when using maruku as a standalone program.

    • I have updated the XHTML DTD used to support MathML: currently using XHTML+MathML+SVG.
    • Content-type set to application/xhtml+xml
    • All entities are written as numeric entities.

  • 🐛 Bug fixes

    • Many fixes in the code handling the sanitizing of inline HTML.
    • markdown=1 did not propagate to children.
    • LaTeX: An exception was raised if an unknown entity was used.

• v0.4.2 Changes

  • Adapted syntax to the [new meta-data proposal][proposal].

  • 🔄 Changes in LaTeX export:

    • Links to external URLs are blue by default.

    • New attributes: latex_preamble to add a custom preamble, and latex_cjk to add packages for UTF-8 Japanese characters. (support for this is still shaky). Example:

      Title: my document
      LaTeX CJK: true
      LaTeX preamble: preamble.tex
      
      Content
      

  • 🐛 Bug fixes

    • Images were not given id or class attributes.
    • Fixed bug in LaTeX export with handling of <,> enclosed URLs: <google.com>.

• v0.4.1 Changes

  • 👍 Implemented SmartyPants support:

    'Twas a "test" to 'remember' -- in the '90s
    --- while I was <<ok>>. She was 6\"12\'.
    

    'Twas a "test" to 'remember' -- in the '90s --- while I was <>. She was 6\"12\'.

    I adapted the code from RubyPants.

  • Server directives between <? ?> are properly preserved.

  • 🔄 Changes in LaTeX export:

    • Now Japanese text rendering sort of works, using the following packages:

      \usepackage[C40]{fontenc}
      \usepackage[cjkjis]{ucs}
      \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
      

      Nevertheless, I could only get bitmap fonts working -- probably it's a problem with my setup.

      A quick test: 日本、中国、ひらがな、カタカナ。

    • Fixed bugs in rendering of immediate links.

    • External packages are required only if needed.

    • More symbols supported. See the symbol list in HTML and in PDF.

  0.4

  • First implementation of [the new meta-data syntax][meta].
  • 🔨 General refactorization of the code and much cleaner error reporting.
  • 📚 Created [the RDOC documentation][rdoc].
  • The add_whitespace method took too much time -- it was O(n^2).
  • ➕ Added unit-tests for block-level elements.

  0.3

  • 📜 A real parser is used instead of a regexp-based system, also for span-level elements.

    Now Maruku is almost 2x faster than Bluecloth, while having more features.

    Here are some benchmarks:

    BlueCloth (to_html): parsing 0.00 sec + rendering 1.54 sec = 1.55 sec
    Maruku (to_html):    parsing 0.47 sec + rendering 0.38 sec = 0.85 sec
    Maruku (to_latex):   parsing 0.49 sec + rendering 0.25 sec = 0.73 sec
    

    This is the result of running lib/maruku/tests/benchmark.rb on the Markdown specification.

  • Prettier HTML output by adding whitespace.

  • ➕ Added a full suite of unit-tests for the span-level parser.

  • 📜 Error management: Having a real parser, Maruku warns you about syntax issues.

    The default action is to warn and try to continue. If you do this:

    Maruku.new(string, {:on_error => :raise})
    

    then syntax errors will cause an exception to be raised (you can catch this and retry).

  • 🛠 Fixed a series of bugs in handling inline HTML code.

  Immediate TODO-list:

  • UTF-8 input/output works OK for HTML, however I am having pain trying to export to LaTeX. I want at least Japanese characters support, so if you know how to do this you are very welcome to give me an hand.

    For example: in the HTML version, you should see accented characters in this parenthesis:

    (àèìòù)

    and Japanese text in these other parentheses:

    (カタカナで 私の 名前は アンドレア チェンシ です).

    (日本のガルは 大好き、でも、日本語は難しですから、そうぞ 英語話すガルを おしえてください).

    In the LaTeX version, these do not appear. I know how to do LaTeX with ISO-8859-1 encoding (European characters), but I'm struggling with half-baked solutions for UTF-8 encoded documents.

  • Implement the [new meta-data proposal][proposal].

  • 🖨 Exporting to Markdown (pretty printing).

  • Exporting to HTML splitting in multiple files.

  • 💎 RubyPants.

  • 👌 Support for images in PDF.
