Getting to Know Pypeline
=========================
A Brief History
----------------
There are a wide variety of plain text-based syntaxes for generating
documentation, including HTML. GitHub's Markup
[http://github.com/github/markup/] library provides a way to handle all of
these formats in an easily-extensible manner. Pypeline provides the same
functionality in a native Python library.
Installing Pypeline
--------------------
In order to install Pypeline, you simply use setuptools/Distribute's
easy_install command. (We recommend using a virtualenv
[http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv] for development.)
$ virtualenv pypeline_env
$ source pypeline_env/bin/activate
(pypeline_env)$ easy_install -UZ pypeline
Getting Started
----------------
Out of the box Pypeline supports the following markups:
* Markdown
* Textile
* ReST
* Creole
* Plain text
To get started with these:
>>> from pypeline.markup import markup
>>> markup.render('foo.txt')
