Ruby interpreter with syntax similar to GitHub Flavored Markdown?

I am starting a blog using Jekyll and thought I would agree with Redcarpet , as it is developed and used by GitHub .

Well, I just got the error, went to check the problems, and found it .

The maintainer says, “As you probably noticed (har har har har), I don’t have time to support Redcarpet anymore. This is not a priority for me (I find Markdown completely boring) and it is not a priority for GitHub because we are more don't use it in production. "

So...

  • Is there a good Ruby markup interpreter (i.e. actively developed, with strong syntax) that I can use with Jekyll (& pygments)?

  • Better yet, a markdown interpreter with syntax similar to (or at least close to) GitHub Flavored Markdown?

https://github.com/vmg/redcarpet Redcarpet is very actively developing and updated about 8 hours ago (at the time of this writing).

To “flavor” your Markdown: https://rubygems.org/gems/github-markdown

To convert Markdown to HTML:

GitHub::Markdown.render_gfm("# Header")

Make in Rails:

GitHub::Markdown.render_gfm("# Header").html_safe
