Blackfriday

Blackfriday is a Markdown processor implemented in Go. It is paranoid about its input (so you can safely feed it user-supplied data), it is fast, it supports common extensions (tables, smart punctuation substitutions, etc.), and it is safe for all utf-8 (unicode) input.
HTML output is currently supported, along with Smartypants extensions.
It started as a translation from C of Sundown.
Installation
Blackfriday is compatible with modern Go releases in module mode. With Go installed:
go get github.com/russross/blackfriday
will resolve and add the package to the current development module, then build and install it. Alternatively, you can achieve the same if you import it in a package:
import "github.com/russross/blackfriday"
and go get
without parameters.
Old versions of Go and legacy GOPATH mode might work, but no effort is made to keep them working.
Versions
Currently maintained and recommended version of Blackfriday is v2
. It's being
developed on its own branch: https://github.com/russross/blackfriday/tree/v2 and the
documentation is available at
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/russross/blackfriday/v2.
It is go get
-able in module mode at github.com/russross/blackfriday/v2
.
Version 2 offers a number of improvements over v1:
- Cleaned up API
- A separate call to
Parse
, which produces an abstract syntax tree for the document - Latest bug fixes
- Flexibility to easily add your own rendering extensions
Potential drawbacks:
- Our benchmarks show v2 to be slightly slower than v1. Currently in the ballpark of around 15%.
- API breakage. If you can't afford modifying your code to adhere to the new API and don't care too much about the new features, v2 is probably not for you.
- Several bug fixes are trailing behind and still need to be forward-ported to v2. See issue #348 for tracking.
If you are still interested in the legacy v1
, you can import it from
github.com/russross/blackfriday
. Documentation for the legacy v1 can be found
here: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/russross/blackfriday.
Usage
v1
For basic usage, it is as simple as getting your input into a byte slice and calling:
output := blackfriday.MarkdownBasic(input)
This renders it with no extensions enabled. To get a more useful feature set, use this instead:
output := blackfriday.MarkdownCommon(input)
v2
For the most sensible markdown processing, it is as simple as getting your input into a byte slice and calling:
output := blackfriday.Run(input)
Your input will be parsed and the output rendered with a set of most popular extensions enabled. If you want the most basic feature set, corresponding with the bare Markdown specification, use:
output := blackfriday.Run(input, blackfriday.WithNoExtensions())
Sanitize untrusted content
Blackfriday itself does nothing to protect against malicious content. If you are dealing with user-supplied markdown, we recommend running Blackfriday's output through HTML sanitizer such as Bluemonday.
Here's an example of simple usage of Blackfriday together with Bluemonday:
import (
"github.com/microcosm-cc/bluemonday"
"github.com/russross/blackfriday"
)
// ...
unsafe := blackfriday.Run(input)
html := bluemonday.UGCPolicy().SanitizeBytes(unsafe)
Custom options, v1
If you want to customize the set of options, first get a renderer
(currently only the HTML output engine), then use it to
call the more general Markdown
function. For examples, see the
implementations of MarkdownBasic
and MarkdownCommon
in
markdown.go
.
Custom options, v2
If you want to customize the set of options, use blackfriday.WithExtensions
,
blackfriday.WithRenderer
and blackfriday.WithRefOverride
.
blackfriday-tool
You can also check out blackfriday-tool
for a more complete example
of how to use it. Download and install it using:
go get github.com/russross/blackfriday-tool
This is a simple command-line tool that allows you to process a markdown file using a standalone program. You can also browse the source directly on github if you are just looking for some example code:
Note that if you have not already done so, installing
blackfriday-tool
will be sufficient to download and install
blackfriday in addition to the tool itself. The tool binary will be
installed in $GOPATH/bin
. This is a statically-linked binary that
can be copied to wherever you need it without worrying about
dependencies and library versions.
Sanitized anchor names
Blackfriday includes an algorithm for creating sanitized anchor names
corresponding to a given input text. This algorithm is used to create
anchors for headings when EXTENSION_AUTO_HEADER_IDS
is enabled. The
algorithm has a specification, so that other packages can create
compatible anchor names and links to those anchors.
The specification is located at https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/russross/blackfriday#hdr-Sanitized_Anchor_Names.
SanitizedAnchorName
exposes this functionality, and can be used to
create compatible links to the anchor names generated by blackfriday.
This algorithm is also implemented in a small standalone package at
github.com/shurcooL/sanitized_anchor_name
. It can be useful for clients
that want a small package and don't need full functionality of blackfriday.
Features
All features of Sundown are supported, including:
-
Compatibility. The Markdown v1.0.3 test suite passes with the
--tidy
option. Without--tidy
, the differences are mostly in whitespace and entity escaping, where blackfriday is more consistent and cleaner. -
Common extensions, including table support, fenced code blocks, autolinks, strikethroughs, non-strict emphasis, etc.
-
Safety. Blackfriday is paranoid when parsing, making it safe to feed untrusted user input without fear of bad things happening. The test suite stress tests this and there are no known inputs that make it crash. If you find one, please let me know and send me the input that does it.
NOTE: "safety" in this context means runtime safety only. In order to protect yourself against JavaScript injection in untrusted content, see this example.
-
Fast processing. It is fast enough to render on-demand in most web applications without having to cache the output.
-
Thread safety. You can run multiple parsers in different goroutines without ill effect. There is no dependence on global shared state.
-
Minimal dependencies. Blackfriday only depends on standard library packages in Go. The source code is pretty self-contained, so it is easy to add to any project, including Google App Engine projects.
-
Standards compliant. Output successfully validates using the W3C validation tool for HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
Extensions
In addition to the standard markdown syntax, this package implements the following extensions:
-
Intra-word emphasis supression. The
_
character is commonly used inside words when discussing code, so having markdown interpret it as an emphasis command is usually the wrong thing. Blackfriday lets you treat all emphasis markers as normal characters when they occur inside a word. -
Tables. Tables can be created by drawing them in the input using a simple syntax:
Name | Age --------|------ Bob | 27 Alice | 23
-
Fenced code blocks. In addition to the normal 4-space indentation to mark code blocks, you can explicitly mark them and supply a language (to make syntax highlighting simple). Just mark it like this:
```go func getTrue() bool { return true } ```
You can use 3 or more backticks to mark the beginning of the block, and the same number to mark the end of the block.
To preserve classes of fenced code blocks while using the bluemonday HTML sanitizer, use the following policy:
p := bluemonday.UGCPolicy() p.AllowAttrs("class").Matching(regexp.MustCompile("^language-[a-zA-Z0-9]+$")).OnElements("code") html := p.SanitizeBytes(unsafe)
-
Definition lists. A simple definition list is made of a single-line term followed by a colon and the definition for that term.
Cat : Fluffy animal everyone likes Internet : Vector of transmission for pictures of cats
Terms must be separated from the previous definition by a blank line.
-
Footnotes. A marker in the text that will become a superscript number; a footnote definition that will be placed in a list of footnotes at the end of the document. A footnote looks like this:
This is a footnote.[^1] [^1]: the footnote text.
-
Autolinking. Blackfriday can find URLs that have not been explicitly marked as links and turn them into links.
-
Strikethrough. Use two tildes (
~~
) to mark text that should be crossed out. -
Hard line breaks. With this extension enabled (it is off by default in the
MarkdownBasic
andMarkdownCommon
convenience functions), newlines in the input translate into line breaks in the output. -
Smart quotes. Smartypants-style punctuation substitution is supported, turning normal double- and single-quote marks into curly quotes, etc.
-
LaTeX-style dash parsing is an additional option, where
--
is translated into–
, and---
is translated into—
. This differs from most smartypants processors, which turn a single hyphen into an ndash and a double hyphen into an mdash. -
Smart fractions, where anything that looks like a fraction is translated into suitable HTML (instead of just a few special cases like most smartypant processors). For example,
4/5
becomes<sup>4</sup>⁄<sub>5</sub>
, which renders as 4⁄5.
Other renderers
Blackfriday is structured to allow alternative rendering engines. Here are a few of note:
-
github_flavored_markdown: provides a GitHub Flavored Markdown renderer with fenced code block highlighting, clickable heading anchor links.
It's not customizable, and its goal is to produce HTML output equivalent to the GitHub Markdown API endpoint, except the rendering is performed locally.
-
markdownfmt: like gofmt, but for markdown.
-
LaTeX output: renders output as LaTeX.
-
bfchroma: provides convenience integration with the Chroma code highlighting library. bfchroma is only compatible with v2 of Blackfriday and provides a drop-in renderer ready to use with Blackfriday, as well as options and means for further customization.
-
Blackfriday-Confluence: provides a Confluence Wiki Markup renderer.
-
Blackfriday-Slack: converts markdown to slack message style
TODO
- More unit testing
- Improve Unicode support. It does not understand all Unicode rules (about what constitutes a letter, a punctuation symbol, etc.), so it may fail to detect word boundaries correctly in some instances. It is safe on all UTF-8 input.

Overview ¶
Package blackfriday is a Markdown processor.
It translates plain text with simple formatting rules into HTML or LaTeX.
Sanitized Anchor Names ¶
Blackfriday includes an algorithm for creating sanitized anchor names corresponding to a given input text. This algorithm is used to create anchors for headings when EXTENSION_AUTO_HEADER_IDS is enabled. The algorithm is specified below, so that other packages can create compatible anchor names and links to those anchors.
The algorithm iterates over the input text, interpreted as UTF-8, one Unicode code point (rune) at a time. All runes that are letters (category L) or numbers (category N) are considered valid characters. They are mapped to lower case, and included in the output. All other runes are considered invalid characters. Invalid characters that preceed the first valid character, as well as invalid character that follow the last valid character are dropped completely. All other sequences of invalid characters between two valid characters are replaced with a single dash character '-'.
SanitizedAnchorName exposes this functionality, and can be used to create compatible links to the anchor names generated by blackfriday. This algorithm is also implemented in a small standalone package at github.com/shurcooL/sanitized_anchor_name. It can be useful for clients that want a small package and don't need full functionality of blackfriday.

Variables ¶
Functions ¶
func Markdown ¶
Markdown is the main rendering function. It parses and renders a block of markdown-encoded text. The supplied Renderer is used to format the output, and extensions dictates which non-standard extensions are enabled.
To use the supplied Html or LaTeX renderers, see HtmlRenderer and LatexRenderer, respectively.
func MarkdownBasic ¶
MarkdownBasic is a convenience function for simple rendering. It processes markdown input with no extensions enabled.
func MarkdownCommon ¶
Call Markdown with most useful extensions enabled MarkdownCommon is a convenience function for simple rendering. It processes markdown input with common extensions enabled, including:
* Smartypants processing with smart fractions and LaTeX dashes
* Intra-word emphasis suppression
* Tables
* Fenced code blocks
* Autolinking
* Strikethrough support
* Strict header parsing
* Custom Header IDs
func MarkdownOptions ¶
MarkdownOptions is just like Markdown but takes additional options through the Options struct.
func SanitizedAnchorName ¶
SanitizedAnchorName returns a sanitized anchor name for the given text.
It implements the algorithm specified in the package comment.
Types ¶
type Html ¶
type Html struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Html is a type that implements the Renderer interface for HTML output.
Do not create this directly, instead use the HtmlRenderer function.
func (*Html) DocumentFooter ¶
func (*Html) DocumentHeader ¶
func (*Html) FootnoteItem ¶
func (*Html) TableHeaderCell ¶
func (*Html) TocFinalize ¶
func (options *Html) TocFinalize()
func (*Html) TocHeaderWithAnchor ¶
type HtmlRendererParameters ¶
type HtmlRendererParameters struct { // Prepend this text to each relative URL. AbsolutePrefix string // Add this text to each footnote anchor, to ensure uniqueness. FootnoteAnchorPrefix string // Show this text inside the <a> tag for a footnote return link, if the // HTML_FOOTNOTE_RETURN_LINKS flag is enabled. If blank, the string // <sup>[return]</sup> is used. FootnoteReturnLinkContents string // If set, add this text to the front of each Header ID, to ensure // uniqueness. HeaderIDPrefix string // If set, add this text to the back of each Header ID, to ensure uniqueness. HeaderIDSuffix string }
type Latex ¶
type Latex struct { }
Latex is a type that implements the Renderer interface for LaTeX output.
Do not create this directly, instead use the LatexRenderer function.
func (*Latex) DocumentFooter ¶
func (*Latex) DocumentHeader ¶
header and footer
func (*Latex) FootnoteItem ¶
func (*Latex) FootnoteRef ¶
TODO: this
func (*Latex) TableHeaderCell ¶
type Options ¶
type Options struct { // Extensions is a flag set of bit-wise ORed extension bits. See the // EXTENSION_* flags defined in this package. Extensions int // ReferenceOverride is an optional function callback that is called every // time a reference is resolved. // // In Markdown, the link reference syntax can be made to resolve a link to // a reference instead of an inline URL, in one of the following ways: // // * [link text][refid] // * [refid][] // // Usually, the refid is defined at the bottom of the Markdown document. If // this override function is provided, the refid is passed to the override // function first, before consulting the defined refids at the bottom. If // the override function indicates an override did not occur, the refids at // the bottom will be used to fill in the link details. ReferenceOverride ReferenceOverrideFunc }
Options represents configurable overrides and callbacks (in addition to the extension flag set) for configuring a Markdown parse.
type Reference ¶
type Reference struct { // Link is usually the URL the reference points to. Link string // Title is the alternate text describing the link in more detail. Title string // Text is the optional text to override the ref with if the syntax used was // [refid][] Text string }
Reference represents the details of a link. See the documentation in Options for more details on use-case.
type ReferenceOverrideFunc ¶
ReferenceOverrideFunc is expected to be called with a reference string and return either a valid Reference type that the reference string maps to or nil. If overridden is false, the default reference logic will be executed. See the documentation in Options for more details on use-case.
type Renderer ¶
type Renderer interface { // block-level callbacks BlockCode(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte, infoString string) BlockQuote(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) BlockHtml(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) Header(out *bytes.Buffer, text func() bool, level int, id string) HRule(out *bytes.Buffer) List(out *bytes.Buffer, text func() bool, flags int) ListItem(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte, flags int) Paragraph(out *bytes.Buffer, text func() bool) Table(out *bytes.Buffer, header []byte, body []byte, columnData []int) TableRow(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) TableHeaderCell(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte, flags int) TableCell(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte, flags int) Footnotes(out *bytes.Buffer, text func() bool) FootnoteItem(out *bytes.Buffer, name, text []byte, flags int) TitleBlock(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) // Span-level callbacks AutoLink(out *bytes.Buffer, link []byte, kind int) CodeSpan(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) DoubleEmphasis(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) Emphasis(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) Image(out *bytes.Buffer, link []byte, title []byte, alt []byte) LineBreak(out *bytes.Buffer) Link(out *bytes.Buffer, link []byte, title []byte, content []byte) RawHtmlTag(out *bytes.Buffer, tag []byte) TripleEmphasis(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) StrikeThrough(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) FootnoteRef(out *bytes.Buffer, ref []byte, id int) // Low-level callbacks Entity(out *bytes.Buffer, entity []byte) NormalText(out *bytes.Buffer, text []byte) // Header and footer DocumentHeader(out *bytes.Buffer) GetFlags() int }
Renderer is the rendering interface. This is mostly of interest if you are implementing a new rendering format.
When a byte slice is provided, it contains the (rendered) contents of the element.
When a callback is provided instead, it will write the contents of the respective element directly to the output buffer and return true on success. If the callback returns false, the rendering function should reset the output buffer as though it had never been called.
Currently Html and Latex implementations are provided
func HtmlRenderer ¶
HtmlRenderer creates and configures an Html object, which satisfies the Renderer interface.
flags is a set of HTML_* options ORed together. title is the title of the document, and css is a URL for the document's stylesheet. title and css are only used when HTML_COMPLETE_PAGE is selected.
func HtmlRendererWithParameters ¶
func HtmlRendererWithParameters(flags int, title string, css string, renderParameters HtmlRendererParameters) Renderer
func LatexRenderer ¶
LatexRenderer creates and configures a Latex object, which satisfies the Renderer interface.
flags is a set of LATEX_* options ORed together (currently no such options are defined).
