#Why NodeJS and not ruby?

I have future plans for this in a node project. And because it's my party.

#Requirements

Lots. Ungodly heaps of requirements.

• NodeJS and NPM if you plan on using the node wrapper.

• Ruby & Rubygems

• Various gems

   $ gem install redcarpet pygments.rb

#Usage

1. Clone this repo locally
2. cd to the repo
3. [sudo] npm -g install

This will install the package into your global node_modules dir (usually /usr/local/lib/node_modules). It will also symbolically link two executables into your path:

1. docter: the nodejs wrapper.
2. gfm: the ruby redcarpet/pygments wrapper.

Both of these executables take markdown input through STDIN and output formatted HTML on STDOUT.

##Using with Marked.app

1. Set the markdown processor to either of the linked executables. If you don't plan on doing anything with the node wrapper, I would suggest using the straight ruby wrapper (gfm).
2. Optionally, add the ghf_marked.css (in this repo) to Marked's custom CSS list.

#Other styles

Uncomment the doc_header() function in github-flavored-markdown.rb and include any of the built-in styles from pygments. Replace :style => 'vs' with one of the styles in the comment block.

Outputting the emacs style to the document header:

class HTMLwithPygments < Redcarpet::Render::XHTML
	def doc_header()
		'<style>' + Pygments.css('.highlight',:style => 'emacs') + '</style>'
	end
	def block_code(code, language)
		Pygments.highlight(code, :lexer => language, :options => {:encoding => 'utf-8'})
	end
end
