Info strings in code blocks [message #1824161]

Hello,

When I try to generate HTML from Markdown using the minimal code below, I would expect the generated <code> element to have a class="language-java" attribute as per [1], which doesn't seem to be the case. Any thoughts on whether this is possible and what I'd need to set/override to make this happen would be much appreciated.

MarkupParser markupParser = new MarkupParser();
markupParser.setMarkupLanguage(new MarkdownLanguage());
System.out.println(markupParser.parseToHtml("```java\nreturn 0;\n```"));

Thanks,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris

The Markdown component does not support the full CommonMark spec. It was designed with the original spec in mind, and has had only minor additions made to support a few of the more popular CommonMark features.

There is a separate CommonMark component in incubation that you could try, and I believe it supports the class element in fenced code blocks. The caveat is that the CommonMark component has not been in development in a few years and I'm not sure how feature complete it got.

Cheers,
Leo

Hi Leo,

Thank you for your response. A bit more digging has revealed that this was actually fixed a few months ago [1, 2] and works fine with the latest version of WikiText.

Cheers,
Dimitris
