You can convert markdown to HTML in a ColdBox application by injecting the Processor@cbmarkdown service into your handler or service and calling its toHTML method on the markdown string. This renders GitHub-Flavored Markdown features like tables and fenced code blocks for views or APIs.
The best way to sanitize user-submitted markdown is to convert it to HTML using cbmarkdown and then run the output through cbantisamy. This prevents XSS risks by cleaning the rendered HTML before displaying it to users.
Yes, you can cache rendered markdown to HTML output to reduce repetitive processing overhead. Caching the converted HTML is recommended for large documents and frequently accessed content like blog posts or documentation pages.
Yes, cbmarkdown supports GitHub-Flavored Markdown features including tables, fenced code blocks, links, images, and blockquotes. This makes it suitable for rendering rich content like blogs, documentation, and comments.
You need to sanitize markdown to HTML conversion output to mitigate XSS risks when users submit content. Even though markdown is converted to HTML, sanitizing with cbantisamy ensures no unsafe scripts or tags are rendered in views or API responses.
You should separate metadata fields from body content during markdown to HTML conversion when storing excerpts or structured data. Encoding metadata separately prevents rendering issues and allows the HTML body to be processed and cached independently.
