Crate somedoc

A very simple document model and markup generator.

---

Model

The somedoc::model module provides the model to construct documents.

Example

fn readme_maker(crate_name: &str, repo_owner: &str, repo_name: &str, headline: &str) -> Document {
    let tbd = Paragraph::plain_str("TBD");
    let mut doc = Document::default();

    doc.add_heading(Heading::heading_1(&format!("Crate {}", crate_name)))
        .add_paragraph(Paragraph::plain_str(headline));

    let mut para = Paragraph::default();
    para.add_image(Image::new(HyperLink::external_with_label_str(
        "https://img.shields.io/badge/license-mit-118811.svg",
        "MIT License",
    )))
    .add_image(Image::new(HyperLink::external_with_label_str(
        "https://img.shields.io/badge/Min%20Rust-1.40-green.svg",
        "Build",
    )))
    .add_image(Image::new(HyperLink::external_with_label_str(
        &format!(
            "https://github.com/{}/{}/workflows/Rust/badge.svg",
            repo_owner, repo_name
        ),
        "Minimum Rust Version",
    )))
    .add_image(Image::new(HyperLink::external_with_label_str(
        &format!(
            "https://github.com/{}/{}/workflows/Security%20audit/badge.svg",
            repo_owner, repo_name
        ),
        "Audit",
    )));

    doc.add_paragraph(para)
        .add_thematic_break()
        .add_paragraph(tbd.clone())
        .add_heading(Heading::heading_2("Example"))
        .add_paragraph(tbd.clone())
        .add_heading(Heading::heading_2("Features"))
        .add_paragraph(tbd.clone())
        .add_thematic_break()
        .add_heading(Heading::heading_2("Changes"))
        .add_paragraph(Paragraph::bold_str("Version 0.1.0"));

    let mut list = List::default();
    list.add_item_from(Span::plain_str("Initial release.").into());

    doc.add_list(list)
        .add_heading(Heading::heading_2("Issues"))
        .add_paragraph(tbd.clone());

    doc
}

Writers

The somedoc::write module contains a number of serializers that generate specific markup formats for different platforms. So far, this includes HTML, LaTeX, and Markdown of different flavors.

JSON Interchange

A JSON representation of the library's Document structure is also provided and can be read as well as written to allow for tool interchange.

Example

The following writes a constructed document to stdout as a Markdown document. The default flavor supported by the writer is the CommonMark spec.

use somedoc::write::write_document_to_string;
use somedoc::write::markdown::MarkdownFlavor;

let doc = make_some_document();

let doc_str = write_document_to_string(&doc, MarkdownFlavor::default().into()).unwrap();
println!("{}", doc_str);

The following writes the same document out in the XWiki markup form.

use somedoc::write::{write_document_to_string, OutputFormat};

let doc = make_some_document();

let doc_str = write_document_to_string(&doc, OutputFormat::XWiki).unwrap();
println!("{}", doc_str);
