Email links support

[hkdobrev]

Parsedown does not support email links.

According to the spec it also has to support obfuscation of the email address.

Email link support is coming in version 0.2.0.

Great! You could create a milestone :)

BTW, here is a failing test for email: https://github.com/hkdobrev/parsedown/commit/2c21118d806d0e07651e788201211b3185876acc

What's up with this one?

[scottchiefbaker]

Any progress on this? Seems simple, and it is part of the original markdown syntax.

[hkdobrev]

@erusev Great! Perhaps you should mention Parsedown does not support obfuscation in the readme or something. It could be useful for systems which rely on this feature and consider changing their Markdown parser.

For someone who wants obfuscated emails, quick and dirty:

Add this somewhere outside the class.

function getObfuscatedEmailLink($email) {
    $out = '';
    for($i=0; $i < strlen($email); $i++){
        $out .= "&#" . ord($email[$i]) . ";";
    }
    return $out;
}

In the element function put this:

if($name == 'href') {
  $markup .= " $name=\"".$value.'"';
} else {
  $markup .= " $name=\"".self::escape($value).'"';
}

In the inlineEmailTag put this:

$url = getObfuscatedEmailLink($url);
$url = "mailto:$url";

@jenstornell
can you more explain on which lines I have to put the code in?
And is there also a way to do it for md files? I mean if i don't use markdown inline.

Cheers
