markdown-it-checkbox

Plugin to create checkboxes for markdown-it markdown parser.

This plugin allows to create checkboxes for tasklists as discussed here.

Usage

Install

node.js, browser:

npm install markdown-it-checkbox --save
bower install markdown-it-checkbox --save

Use

var md = require('markdown-it')()
            .use(require('markdown-it-checkbox'));
 
md.render('[ ] unchecked') // =>
// <p>
//  <input type="checkbox" id="checkbox0">
//  <label for="checkbox0">unchecked</label>
// </p>
 
md.render('[x] checked') // =>
// <p>
//  <input type="checkbox" id="checkbox0" checked="true">
//  <label for="checkbox0">checked</label>
