[jira] [Commented] (DOXIA-492) Add support for doxia macros in markdown documents.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIA-492?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14692999#comment-14692999 ] 

Masatake Iwasaki commented on DOXIA-492:
----------------------------------------

Because MarkdownParser (which is subclass of XhtmlParser) uses XHTML as intermediate format, it could use macro support of XhtmlParser by DOXIA-529.

> It would be nice if doxia macros could be supported also inside markdown documents (similar to APT).
> Existing macros (especially snippet) is very useful, however with the power of maven there's the ability to register own macros for a build process which enables reuse of resources and improves dryness in general.
> A syntax which may work could be the following:
> * Block Level
> {noformat}
>    #`??MACRO_NAME MACRO_ARGS`
> {noformat}
> * Inline
> {noformat}
> `??MACRO_NAME MACRO_ARGS`
> {noformat}
> Reference: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/yesod-markdown/0.0/doc/html/Yesod-Markdown-Macros.html
> E.g. using "Texts" it works just from the Editor:
> !screen.png!
> When macros are not interpreted, they fallback to a code block, thus it's easy to edit these sort of documents with one of the existing nice markdown editors.
