- add additional parameters parsing (other implementations will just
ignore them). E.g. if in RST we have:
.. code:: nim
:test: "nim c $1"
...
then in Markdown that will be:
```nim test="nim c $1"
...
```
- implement Markdown interpretation of additional indentation which is
less than 4 spaces (>=4 spaces is a code block but it's not
implemented yet). RST interpretes it as quoted block, for Markdown it's
just normal paragraphs.
- add separate `md2html` and `md2tex` commands. This is to separate
Markdown behavior in cases when it diverges w.r.t. RST significantly —
most conspicously like in the case of additional indentation above, and
also currently the contradicting inline rule of Markdown is also turned
on only in `md2html` and `md2tex`. **Rationale:** mixing Markdown and
RST arbitrarily is a way to nowhere, we need to provide a way to fix the
particular behavior. Note that still all commands have **both** Markdown
and RST features **enabled**. In this PR `*.nim` files can be processed
only in Markdown mode, while `md2html` is for `*.md` files and
`rst2html` for `*.rst` files.
- rename `*.rst` files to `.*md` as our current default behavior is
already Markdown-ish
- convert code blocks in `docgen.rst` to Markdown style as an example.
Other code blocks will be converted in the follow-up PRs
- fix indentation inside Markdown code blocks — additional indentation
is preserved there
- allow more than 3 backticks open/close blocks (tildas \~ are still not
allowed to avoid conflict with RST adornment headings) see also
https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/355
- better error messages
- (other) fix a bug that admonitions cannot be used in sandbox mode; fix
annoying warning on line 2711

|
The standard distribution ships with the following tools:
|
|
|
|
- | `Hot code reloading <hcr.html>`_
|
|
| The "Hot code reloading" feature is built into the compiler but has its own
|
|
document explaining how it works.
|
|
|
|
- | `Documentation generator <docgen.html>`_
|
|
| The builtin document generator `nim doc`:cmd: generates HTML documentation
|
|
from ``.nim`` source files.
|
|
|
|
- | `Nimsuggest for IDE support <nimsuggest.html>`_
|
|
| Through the `nimsuggest`:cmd: tool, any IDE can query a ``.nim`` source file
|
|
and obtain useful information like the definition of symbols or suggestions for
|
|
completion.
|
|
|
|
- | `C2nim <https://github.com/nim-lang/c2nim/blob/master/doc/c2nim.rst>`_
|
|
| C to Nim source converter. Translates C header files to Nim.
|
|
|
|
- | `niminst <niminst.html>`_
|
|
| niminst is a tool to generate an installer for a Nim program.
|
|
|
|
- | `nimgrep <nimgrep.html>`_
|
|
| Nim search and replace utility.
|
|
|
|
- | nimpretty
|
|
| `nimpretty`:cmd: is a Nim source code beautifier,
|
|
to format code according to the official style guide.
|
|
|
|
- | `testament <https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/testament.html>`_
|
|
| `testament`:cmd: is an advanced automatic *unittests runner* for Nim tests,
|
|
is used for the development of Nim itself, offers process isolation for your tests,
|
|
it can generate statistics about test cases, supports multiple targets (C, JS, etc),
|
|
`simulated Dry-Runs <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_run_(testing)>`_,
|
|
has logging, can generate HTML reports, skip tests from a file, and more,
|
|
so can be useful to run your tests, even the most complex ones.
