Task List Extension
INFO

This extension adds support for GFM-style task lists.
Installation
This extension is bundled with league/commonmark
. This library can be installed via Composer:
composer require league/commonmark
See the installation section for more details.
Usage
Configure your Environment
as usual and simply add the TaskListExtension
provided by this package:
use League\CommonMark\Environment\Environment;
use League\CommonMark\Extension\CommonMark\CommonMarkCoreExtension;
use League\CommonMark\Extension\TaskList\TaskListExtension;
use League\CommonMark\MarkdownConverter;
// Define your configuration, if needed
$config = [];
// Configure the Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers
$environment = new Environment($config);
$environment->addExtension(new CommonMarkCoreExtension());
// Add this extension
$environment->addExtension(new TaskListExtension());
// Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown!
$converter = new MarkdownConverter($environment);
$markdown = <<<EOT
- [x] Install this extension
- [ ] ???
- [ ] Profit!
EOT;
echo $converter->convert($markdown);
Please note that this extension doesn't provide any JavaScript functionality to handle people checking and unchecking boxes - you'll need to implement that yourself if needed.
