FUNCTIONS

.RenderString

Renders markup to HTML.

Syntax

.RenderString MARKUP

.RenderString is a method on Page that renders some markup to HTML using the content renderer defined for that page (if not set in the options).

The method takes an optional map argument with these options:

display (“inline”)
inline or block. If inline (default), surrounding <p></p> on short snippets will be trimmed.
markup (defaults to the Page’s markup)
See identifiers in List of content formats.

Some examples:

{{ $optBlock := dict "display" "block" }}
{{ $optOrg := dict "markup" "org" }}
{{ "**Bold Markdown**" | $p.RenderString }}
{{  "**Bold Block Markdown**" | $p.RenderString  $optBlock }}
{{  "/italic org mode/" | $p.RenderString  $optOrg }}

Note that this method is more powerful than the similar markdownify function as it also supports Render Hooks and it has options to render other markup formats.
