Template

[StudentDawid]

Hello, can you help me ? 😄
I don`t know how to show my markdown data on template.
I have something like

<h1>{{ post.title }}</h1>
<p>{{ post.text }}</p>
<p>{{ post.markdown }}</p>

and i see only

title
text
#text1 ![](/media/markdownx/ab3bfac7-7509-411a-96c8-11aebc20b873.jpg)

but i want compiled version (with image)
Could you explain how templates with markdownx work ? Or create some exaple with that ? 😄

Hi StudentDwid,

I was able to get it working by rendering the markdown in views.py then passing it to templates. I wanted to render the text in the object post.text then pass it to templates to render blog/post_list.html.This is how it looks:

views.py:

from markdownx.utils import markdownify

posts = Post.objects.filter(published_date__lte=timezone.now())
def post_list(request):
    for post in posts:
        post.text = markdownify(post.text)
    return render(request, 'blog/post_list.html', {'posts': posts})

post_list.html:

        <div class="post">
            <h1>
                <a href="{% url 'post_detail' pk=post.pk %}">{{ post.title }}</a>
            </h1>
            <p>{{ post.text|safe }}</p>
        </div>

this doesn't work for me :(

I have a paginator with this

class PostListView(ListView):
model = Post
paginate_by = 5
template_name = 'post_list.html'
queryset = Post.objects.filter(published_date__lte=timezone.now()).order_by('-published_date')

and I can't do markdownify(post.text)

[oskarko]

I got it!

class PostListView(ListView):
model = Post
paginate_by = 5
template_name = 'post_list.html'

change my query before returns

def get_queryset(self):
    posts = Post.objects.filter(published_date__lte=timezone.now()).order_by('-published_date')
    for post in posts:
        post.text = markdownify(post.text)
    return posts

Is there a solution for "unmarkdownify"?
I have an update_view and get the plain HTML text back on editing. It is not usable for other users

sujan-sube this works for me - I'm new to markdownx as of 2 days ago. This example helped me get things working the way I like. May I suggest adding it to the docs? I think it deals with #74 too.
