[lucy-issues] [jira] [Commented] (CLOWNFISH-87) Use system cmark if possible

["Nick Wellnhofer (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOWNFISH-87?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15224466#comment-15224466 ] 

Nick Wellnhofer commented on CLOWNFISH-87:
------------------------------------------

The libcmark API isn't stable yet, so the bundled cmark should be preferred over the system version. This means that a configuration parameter is required. If we support external cmark libraries, we should also add a minimum version check to Clownfish (right now, we require at least 0.21.0, IIRC).

Also, we should try to find a solution that works with other host languages (C, Go, Python) via a Charmonizer option.

I can offer to work on this, but I have other priorities at the moment.
