## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh

$ npm install --save helper-markdown

```

## API

```js

var markdown = require('helper');

```

Returns a function that returns the helper, allowing an options object to be passed:

```js

var hbs = require('handlebars');

hbs.registerHelper('markdown', markdown([options]));

```

**Example**

Pass a custom `highlight` function for syntax highlighting to [Remarkable][], the markdown renderer:

```js

var hljs = require('highlight.js');

var markdown = require('helper-markdown');

function highlight(code, lang) {

  try {

    try {

      return hljs.highlight(lang, code).value;

    } catch (err) {

      if (!/Unknown language/i.test(err.message)) {

        throw err;

      }

      return hljs.highlightAuto(code).value;

    }

  } catch (err) {

    return code;

  }

}

hbs.registerHelper('markdown', markdown({

  highlight: highlight  

}));

```

## Usage examples

With Handlebars:

```handlebars



{{#markdown}}

# Heading

> this is markdown

foo bar baz

{{/markdown}}



```

Results in:

```html

Heading



this is markdown



foo bar baz

```

## Register the helper

> This should work with any engine, here are a few examples

### templates

The `templates` library supports any templates engine supported by consolidate. To register the helper with [templates](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/templates):

```js

var templates = require('templates');

var app = templates();

app.helper('markdown', require('helper-markdown'));

```

### assemble

To register the helper for use with [assemble](https://github.com/assemble/assemble) v0.6.0 and higher:

```js

assemble.helper('markdown', require('helper-markdown'));

```

### verb

Register the helper for use with [verb](https://github.com/verbose/verb):

```js

var verb = require('verb');

verb.helper('markdown', require('helper-markdown'));

```

### handlebars

To register the helper with [handlebars](http://www.handlebarsjs.com/):

```js

var handlebars = require('handlebars');

handlebars.registerHelper('markdown', require('helper-markdown'));

```

### lodash

To register the helper with [Lo-Dash][] or [underscore](http://underscorejs.org):

```js

var markdown = require('helper-markdown');

// as a mixin

_.mixin({markdown: markdown});

_.template('<%= _.markdown("# heading") %>', {});

//=> '
heading
\n'

// passed on the context

_.template('<%= markdown("# heading") %>', {markdown: markdown});

//=> '
heading
\n'

// as an import

var settings = {imports: {markdown: markdown}};

_.template('<%= markdown("# heading") %>', {}, settings);

//=> '
heading\n'

```
