**league/commonmark** is a highly-extensible PHP Markdown parser created by [Colin O'Dell][@colinodell] which supports the full [CommonMark] spec and [GitHub-Flavored Markdown]. It is based on the [CommonMark JS reference implementation][commonmark.js] by [John MacFarlane] \([@jgm]\).
## π¦ Installation & Basic Usage
This project requires PHP 7.4 or higher with the `mbstring` extension. To install it via [Composer] simply run:
``` bash
$ composer require league/commonmark
```
The `CommonMarkConverter` class provides a simple wrapper for converting CommonMark to HTML:
```php
use League\CommonMark\CommonMarkConverter;
$converter = new CommonMarkConverter([
'html_input' => 'strip',
'allow_unsafe_links' => false,
]);
echo $converter->convert('# Hello World!');
// <h1>Hello World!</h1>
```
Or if you want GitHub-Flavored Markdown, use the `GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter` class instead:
```php
use League\CommonMark\GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter;
$converter = new GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter([
'html_input' => 'strip',
'allow_unsafe_links' => false,
]);
echo $converter->convert('# Hello World!');
// <h1>Hello World!</h1>
```
Please note that only UTF-8 and ASCII encodings are supported. If your Markdown uses a different encoding please convert it to UTF-8 before running it through this library.
π If you will be parsing untrusted input from users, please consider setting the `html_input` and `allow_unsafe_links` options per the example above. See <https://commonmark.thephpleague.com/security/> for more details. If you also do choose to allow raw HTML input from untrusted users, consider using a library (like [HTML Purifier](https://github.com/ezyang/htmlpurifier)) to provide additional HTML filtering.
## π Documentation
Full documentation on advanced usage, configuration, and customization can be found at [commonmark.thephpleague.com][docs].
## β« Upgrading
Information on how to upgrade to newer versions of this library can be found at <https://commonmark.thephpleague.com/releases>.
## π» GitHub-Flavored Markdown
The `GithubFlavoredMarkdownConverter` shown earlier is a drop-in replacement for the `CommonMarkConverter` which adds additional features found in the GFM spec:
- Autolinks
- Disallowed raw HTML
- Strikethrough
- Tables
- Task Lists
See the [Extensions documentation](https://commonmark.thephpleague.com/customization/extensions/) for more details on how to include only certain GFM features if you don't want them all.

## π·οΈ Versioning
[SemVer](http://semver.org/) is followed closely. Minor and patch releases should not introduce breaking changes to the codebase; however, they might change the resulting AST or HTML output of parsed Markdown (due to bug fixes, spec changes, etc.) As a result, you might get slightly different HTML, but any custom code built onto this library should still function correctly.
Any classes or methods marked `@internal` are not intended for use outside of this library and are subject to breaking changes at any time, so please avoid using them.
## π οΈ Maintenance & Support
When a new **minor** version (e.g. `2.0` -> `2.1`) is released, the previous one (`2.0`) will continue to receive security and critical bug fixes for *at least* 3 months.
When a new **major** version is released (e.g. `1.6` -> `2.0`), the previous one (`1.6`) will receive critical bug fixes for *at least* 3 months and security updates for 6 months after that new release comes out.
(This policy may change in the future and exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis.)
**Professional support, including notification of new releases and security updates, is available through a [Tidelift Subscription](https://tidelift.com/subscription/pkg/packagist-league-commonmark?utm_source=packagist-league-commonmark&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=readme).**
## π·ββοΈ Contributing
To report a security vulnerability, please use the [Tidelift security contact](https://tidelift.com/security). Tidelift will coordinate the fix and disclosure with us.
If you encounter a bug in the spec, please report it to the [CommonMark] project. Any resulting fix will eventually be implemented in this project as well.
Contributions to this library are **welcome**, especially ones that:
* Improve usability or flexibility without compromising our ability to adhere to the [CommonMark spec]
* Mirror fixes made to the [reference implementation][commonmark.js]
* Optimize performance
* Fix issues with adhering to the [CommonMark spec]
Major refactoring to core parsing logic should be avoided if possible so that we can easily follow updates made to [the reference implementation][commonmark.js]. That being said, we will absolutely consider changes which don't deviate too far from the reference spec or which are favored by other popular CommonMark implementations.
Please see [CONTRIBUTING](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark/blob/main/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md) for additional details.
## π§ͺ Testing
``` bash
$ composer test
```
This will also test league/commonmark against the latest supported spec.
## π Performance Benchmarks
You can compare the performance of **league/commonmark** to other popular parsers by running the included benchmark tool:
``` bash
$ ./tests/benchmark/benchmark.php
