# md2gmi
|
|
|
|
Convert Markdown to Gemini [gemtext](https://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/gemtext.gmi) markup with
|
|
Go. Working with streams and pipes for UNIX like behavior utilizing Go channels. Processing streams
|
|
line by line is slightly more complex than it needs to be as I was toying with channels and state
|
|
machines.
|
|
|
|
Internally md2gmi does a 1st pass that constructs the blocks of single lines for gemtext from one or
|
|
multiple lines of an input stream. These blocks are then streamed to the 2nd passes. The 2nd pass
|
|
will convert hugo front matters, links, fix headings etc. These stages/passes can be composed and
|
|
chained with go pipelines. The output sink is either a file or stdout.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
Usage of ./md2gmi:
|
|
-i string
|
|
specify a .md (Markdown) file to read from, otherwise stdin (default)
|
|
-o string
|
|
specify a .gmi (gemtext) file to write to, otherwise stdout (default)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
go get github.com/n0x1m/md2gmi
|
|
cat file.md | md2gmi
|
|
md2gmi -i file.md -o file.gmi
