markdown-html-converter

A converter for markdown files to html files. Using the cmark library. At the moment the relevant action works via the shell script. The c files are a future project, to rewrite most of the covert process myself.

Requirements

  • cmark:
sudo apt install cmark
  • inotify-tools:
sudo apt install inotify-tools

Installation

Autoconvert script

To install the script either clone the repository.

git clone https://git.baumsplitter41.eu/BaumSplitter41/markdown-html-converter.git
cd markdown-html-converter

Edit the paths of WATCH_DIR and HTML_DIR in the autoconvert.sh if needed.
Note: if you want that folder cleaner, you cant delete the cmark.c and converter.c files. There not relevant at the current point of time.

Systemd

Edit the md-html.service:

  • set the executing user: User=username
  • set the path, where your autoconvert.sh file is: ExecStart=/bin/bash /path/to/autoconvert.sh

Drop the file into /etc/systemd/system/ and give it to the root user sudo chown root:root /etc/systemd/system/md-html.service Start and enable the service: systemctl enable md-html.service --now
Check if everything is working: systemctl status md-html.service

Now you can drop markdown files into the configured folder and they will be converted into a html file and placed into the configured html folder.
