[![build](https://github.com/mikaelbr/marked-terminal/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/mikaelbr/marked-terminal/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [![npm marked-terminal](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/marked-terminal.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/marked-terminal)

## Install

```sh
npm install marked marked-terminal
```

## Example

```javascript
import { marked } from 'marked';
import { markedTerminal } from 'marked-terminal';

marked.use(markedTerminal([options][, highlightOptions]));

marked.parse('# Hello \n This is **markdown** printed in the `terminal`');
```

### Using older versions

```javascript
const marked = require('marked');
const TerminalRenderer = require('marked-terminal');

marked.setOptions({
  // Define custom renderer
  renderer: new TerminalRenderer()
});

// Show the parsed data
console.log(
  marked('# Hello \n This is **markdown** printed in the `terminal`')
);
```

This will produce the following:

### Syntax Highlighting

Also have support for syntax highlighting using [cli-highlight](https://github.com/felixfbecker/cli-highlight).
You can override highlighting defaults by passing in settings as the second argument for TerminalRenderer.

Having the following markdown input:

<pre>
```js
var foo = function(bar) {
  console.log(bar);
};
foo('Hello');
```
</pre>

...we will convert it into terminal format:

```javascript
// Show the parsed data
console.log(marked(exampleSource));
```

This will produce the following:
