Module mdg 

Line-level tokens the Markdown with Gherkin flavor inherits from Gherkin.

Gherkin is line-oriented: its parser classifies Markdown content one line at a time. MDG embeds three of its recognized shapes in Markdown, where each one collides with a Markdown construct that would otherwise rewrite or delete it:

• a Data Table or Examples row, matched as /^\s\s\s?\s?\s?\|/, whose indentation overlaps the 4-column indented-code threshold;
• a tag line, spelled in MDG as backtick-wrapped @tags so Gherkin’s bare @tag survives as Markdown, which binds to the structure on the very next line;
• a structure heading, Keyword: name, whose keyword is a dialect term that names a structure only when spelled exactly.

Each rule decides for itself what to do about a token; this module only says what Gherkin sees.

Constants

MAX_TABLE_INDENT

The widest indentation Gherkin still reads as such a table.

MIN_TABLE_INDENT

The narrowest indentation Gherkin accepts for a Data Table or Examples table, and therefore the canonical width such a table is normalized to.

Functions

is_table_row

Whether line is a row of a Gherkin Data Table or Examples table.

is_tag_line

Whether Gherkin finds at least one backtick-wrapped tag on a line.

keyword_split

Split a structure heading into its keyword, colon included, and the name that follows, or None when the text names no structure.
