flask-mdform
============

An extension for Flask_ to generate `Flask-WTF`_ parsing Markdown
based document using mdforms_. Checkout the syntax in the mdform
page.


Installation
------------

.. code-block::

    pip install flask-mdform

Usage
-----

Use it like this to create a `WTForm`_ compatible template:

.. code-block::python

    >>> from flask_mdform import Markdown, FormExtension, flask_wtf
    >>> md = Markdown(extensions = [FormExtension(formatter=flask_wtf)])
    >>> html = md.convert(text)  # this is the jinja template with Flask WTForm
    >>> form_dict = md.Form      # this is the definition dict

or use it like this to create a `WTForm`_ compatible template that uses Bootstrap4_.

    >>> from flask_mdform import Markdown, FormExtension, flask_wtf_bs4
    >>> md = Markdown(extensions = [FormExtension(formatter=flask_wtf_bs4("jQuery", "wtf."))])
    >>> html = md.convert(text)  # this is the jinja template with Flask WTForm and BS4
    >>> form_dict = md.Form      # this is the definition dict

Here, the two arguments in the formatter can be use it to customize it. "jQuery" is the name
of the jQuery variable, "wtf." is the prefix where WTForm bootstrap **form_field** function
is located.
