Name

Text::Markup::Mediawiki - MediaWiki syntax parser for Text::Markup

Synopsis

  my $html = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'README.mediawiki');
  my $raw  = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'README.mediawiki', raw => 1);

Description

This is the MediaWiki syntax <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents/Editing_Wikipedia> parser for Text::Markup. It reads in the file (relying on a BOM <http://www.unicode.org/unicode/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM>), hands it off to Text::MediawikiFormat for parsing, and then returns the generated HTML as an encoded UTF-8 string with an "http-equiv="Content-Type"" element identifying the encoding as UTF-8.

It recognizes files with the following extensions as MediaWiki:

.mediawiki
.mwiki
.wiki
Normally this module returns the output wrapped in a minimal HTML document skeleton. If you would like the raw output without the skeleton, you can pass the "raw" option to "parse".
