Lazy reST is a Nimrod module providing a spin-off higher level API over Nimrod's rstgen module. The main reasons for this spin-off are:
- Incompatible, but easier and safer to use API.
- Explicit C API support for embedding.
- Embeds Prism for code syntax highlighting of more languages.
- Drops explicit support for LaTeX.
- All the latest features supported on the latest stable Nimrod compiler.
On top of the library code, the lazy_rest_badger.exe program shows how to
use the library and provides a simple practical rst to html command line tool.
This is development version 0.2.3. For a list of changes see the docs/changes.rst file.
If you are a Nimrod programmer read the Nimrod usage guide which includes installation steps. C programmers can read the C usage guide which unfortunately requires you to read the Nimrod version too anyway.
Information on how errors are handled is available in the separate Lazy reST error handling document.
All documentation should be available online at http://gradha.github.io/lazy_rest/.
The lazy_rest_badger.exe binary has its own manual in
docs/lazy_rest_badger_usage.rst, but
running the program with the --help switch should show enough help to get
you going.
This project uses the git-flow branching model with reversed defaults. Stable releases are
tracked in the stable branch. Development happens in the default master
branch.
You can send me feedback through github's issue tracker. I also take a look from time to time to Nimrod's forums where you can talk to other nimrod programmers.
