Mentioning people whose handles include valid markdown would not survive
markdown to bbcode conversion wihout being mangled. An example that
brought this to my attention was a handle similar to this:
_someuser_@testsite.example
The underscores would be interpreted as emphasis in markdown, and
converted to:
[i]someuser[/i]@testsite.example
This patch should fix this, and hopefully any other issue with mentions
being mangled.
When passing a content throught the `markdown_to_bb` function
to convert any markdown in the content, any recognized URLs in the
content would be converted to BBCode links as a post processing step
after the main conversion.
After commit a1ccacb825 this did no longer
consider content within code blocks, and would thus convert them as
to BBCode links.
Example: The following content
[code]
example url: https://example.com
[/code]
Would be converted to
[code]
example url: [url=https://example.com]https://example.com[/url]
[/code]
Prior to commit a1ccacb825, code blocks
would be protected, so this would not happen.
This patch removes the post processing step for converting plain URLs to
links completely from this routine. This functionality is in any case
covered in the actual BBCode parser where it belongs.
This will have some other side effects as well, such as images and links
created using Markdown, will not be converted to [zmg] or [zrl] tags
where that would be done automatically before. If you intend to use a
[zrl] or [zmg] tag, you now need to do so explicitly.
A tiny refactoring to make HTML 2 markdown conversion testable.
Add some unit tests to check the behavior of the now used HTML2Markdown library.
There are some differences compared to the old pixel418/markdownify library.
The current version 2.0.0 (alpha) throws deprecated warning with
PHP7.1 and PHPUnit.
Upgrade the HTML to Markdown converter for PHP to the current
Markdownify 2.2.1.
Used composer to manage this library.
The current version throws deprecated warning with PHP7.1 and PHPUnit.
Upgrade the Markdown library to the current PHP Markdown Lib 1.7.0.
Used composer to manage this library.
