minad / creole Goto Github PK

The regex for parsing inline fixed-width blocks is greedy but it probably shouldn't be. See http://gist.github.com/461840

The license information for Creole is a little confusing. The "LICENSE" section of the README says:

Creole is Copyright (c) 2008 - 2013 Lars Christensen, Daniel Mendler. It is free software, and may be redistributed under the terms specified in the README file of the Ruby distribution.

I think this is meant to refer to the README file of the Ruby programming language, but there is no license in the Ruby README -- it points to the Ruby COPYING file. The Creole LICENSE file contains a near-identical copy of the Ruby license, but it's missing the corresponding BSDL file that is referenced to in the LICENSE file.

I suggest adding the BSDL license file to the repo and changing the license statement in the README to point to the LICENSE file.

Thanks for your consideration!

If I put '~' before freestanding link(example: ~http://google.com/), I should get output string without link, but I get it with link.
More examples of unobvious working of escape character:

1. I write ~// something //, I get // something.
2. I write
   * f
~* d
   I get

• j * d

3. I write
   {{{
~}}}
}}}
   I get ~}}}, but I should get }}}.

P.S. I'm talking about creole parsing in Github, and I haven't compile this project yet.

I'm running license auditing tools and am getting warnings about creole having no license, which would technically mean it's copyrighted and no one may use it. Clearly many projects (including sinatra) are using creole, and that's obviously your intent.

• There is no license file.
• The readme says this is "free software" but otherwise just recursively refers to itself.
• The gemspec declares s.license = 'Ruby'.
• There is no license named ruby. However, the ruby language is distributed under a BSD-2-Clause license.

Please create a LICENSE file with the BSD-2-Clause content linked above, and remove or update the license section of the readme.

@minad what do you think about explicitly adding Ruby 3 into the Ci matrix? I know ruby-head is in there - not sure when the last pipeline was run, so I don't know if Ruby 3 was ever tested.

I tried it myself locally. Tests passed on both 3.0 and 3.1

I'm happy to put together a PR if you would consider it.

I'm curious as to whether travis is still working, or would we have to convert to GitHub actions.

It would be nice if Creole automatically generates id or name attributes for headings, and/or provides a markup syntax to explicitly set id or name for heading or other elements. Currently it's not possible to have a link point to a location inside a page with url#id, except creating an anchor using raw HTML like {{{<h1 id="MyHeader">My Header</h1>}}}.

wikicreole.org link is poorly formatted and doesn't link to an actual page
