mdi-core

mdi-core is the native Rust implementation of illusion Markdown (MDI), a Markdown extension for Japanese typography. It parses CommonMark, GFM, YAML front matter, and MDI syntax into a portable document tree, and provides deterministic HTML, text, EPUB, DOCX, and PDF renderers.

Install

[dependencies]
mdi-core = "2.0"

Quick start

use mdi_core::{parse_document, render_html};

let source = "第^12^話。{東京|とうきょう}は雨だった。";

let document = parse_document(source);
assert_eq!(document.children.len(), 1);

let html = render_html(source);

Use parse_output when you also need parser capabilities and diagnostics. When rendering one parsed document in multiple formats, use the *_document functions, such as render_html_document, to avoid parsing it again.

Publication profiles are also resolved in Rust. Use render_epub_with_profile or render_docx_with_profile when you need metadata, typography, chapter splitting, cover art, page geometry, or page numbers. page_size_catalog_json exposes the same 67 paper definitions to bindings and user interfaces, so other languages do not need to copy the dimension table.
