Pelican GFM
===========

Pelican GFM is a reader that leverages GitHub's C-based markdown library to translate GitHub Flavored Markdown to html.

## Note

It is important to note that this currently only works on debian systems

Requirements
============

Pelican GFM has no requirements outside of the python standard library and pelican itself.

How to Use
=========

Drop the entire pelican-gfm directory into the plugin path you have defined in your pelicanconf.py
Ensure that 'pelican-gfm' is on the list of plugins.

## Settings and Configuration

The Settings.py file contains the configurables for pelican-gfm.
- Location of the cmark lib files
- Version of the GitHub Cmark you wish to use
- cmark extensions you wish to use.

## Pre-Flight Checks

Before Pelican GFM run it checks:
- that the packages required to build the cmark files are present
- that any packages known to conflict with this reader are not present
- that the libcmark files required by the reader are present

## Configuring Pelican GFM

If Pelican GFM finds that there is a configuration issue it will recommend that you run the following:
`python gfmSetup.py`

## Testing

There is a unittest written for gfm. the test will register and spawn a new reader and return true if there were no issues.

Syntax
======
This plugin leverages [GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://github.github.com/gfm/) in `md, markdown, mkd, mdown` files to generate html pages.


Attribution
===========
`pelican-gfm` is based on [pelican_gfm_script](https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-website/blob/master/gfm_reader.py)

What is the purpose of this block with the relative import? If you are trying to maintain some compatibility with ancient Python versions can you solve this problem with the PEP 328 from __future__ import absolute_import approach?

I got the absolute imports working but now the plugin doesn't conform to your documentation.

If you want to use this approach for imports I think this should only catch an ImportError.
See my above comment about other potential approaches.

I ended up removing this entirely.
