Overview
========

**Latest Package**
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bbcode

**Source Code**
https://github.com/dcwatson/bbcode

**Documentation**

[![CI Status](https://github.com/dcwatson/bbcode/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/dcwatson/bbcode/actions)


Installation
============

The easiest way to install the bbcode module is with pip, e.g.:

    pip install bbcode


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

Python, tested with versions 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8. Also tested with PyPy (2 and 3).


Basic Usage
===========

```python
# Using the default parser.
import bbcode
html = bbcode.render_html(text)

# Installing simple formatters.
parser = bbcode.Parser()
parser.add_simple_formatter('hr', '<hr />', standalone=True)
parser.add_simple_formatter('sub', '<sub>%(value)s</sub>')
parser.add_simple_formatter('sup', '<sup>%(value)s</sup>')

# A custom render function.
def render_color(tag_name, value, options, parent, context):
    return '<span style="color:%s;">%s</span>' % (tag_name, value)

# Installing advanced formatters.
for color in ('red', 'blue', 'green', 'yellow', 'black', 'white'):
    parser.add_formatter(color, render_color)

# Calling format with context.
html = parser.format(text, somevar='somevalue')
```


Advantages Over [Postmarkup](https://code.google.com/p/postmarkup/)
===================================================================

* More tag options for how/when to escape - for instance, you can specify
  whether to escape html or perform cosmetic replacements on a tag-by-tag
  basis. Same for auto-linking and transforming newlines.

* More liberal (and accurate) automatic link creation, using John Gruber's
  URL regular expression:
      http://daringfireball.net/2010/07/improved_regex_for_matching_urls

* Does not swallow unrecognized tags. For example, [3] will be output as
  [3], not silently ignored.

* More flexible tag option parser. Tags may have standard bbcode options,
  for example [url=something]text[/url], but may also have named options,
  for example [url=something alt=icon]text[/url]. These options are passed
  to the render function as a standard python dictionary.

* Ability to specify tag opening and closing delimiters (default: [ and ]).
  A side benefit of this is being able to use this library to selectively
  strip HTML tags from a string by using < and >.

* Includes a runnable unittest suite.

* Python 3 support.
