Snudown

Snudown is a reddit-specific fork of the Sundown Markdown parser used by GitHub, with Python integration added.

Setup for development on Mac OS X

1. From ~/src/snudown run $ python setup.py build
2. If this is successful, there will now be a snudown.so file in the /snudown/build/lib.< os info >-< python version number> directory
3. From within the /lib.< os info >-< python version number> directory, start a python interpreter

<!-- Make sure you can import snudown -->
>>> import snudown
<!-- verify that the build you just made is being used -->
>>> print(snudown.__file__)
snudown.so
<!-- Test the functionality of the build -->
>>> snudown.markdown('[hi](http://www.reddit.com)')
'<p><a href="http://www.reddit.com">hi</a></p>\n'
<!-- Great! You can exit now. -->
>>> quit()

4. Verify that the tests pass

$ PYTHONPATH="$(pwd)" python ../../test_snudown.py

5. Verify that all the previous steps work for both Python 2 AND Python 3

Install for general use

Run setup.py install to install the module.

For Mac OS X:

1. Install afl-fuzz via homebrew: brew install afl-fuzz
2. You can now install the module via python setup.py install
3. You may also compile snudown using the Makefile directly if you so wish

Thanks

Many thanks to @vmg for implementing the initial version of this fork!
