SM::ToHtml does not convert urls to hyperlinks

Ruby
1

I am trying to use my own output formatter with SimpleMarkup. Things
seems to work, except for hyperlinks not working as expected. I tried to
use SM::ToHtml to simplify things, and even if does not deal with
hyperlinks. Here is the code snippet I am using.

require ‘rdoc/markup/simple_markup’
require ‘rdoc/markup/simple_markup/to_html’
s = “This is bold. These are urls - www.foo.comhttp://www.foo.com ,
http://www.foo.com , foo[http://www.foo.com]”
p = SM::SimpleMarkup.new
puts p.convert(s, SM::ToHtml.new)

The output of this is as shown below. The word “bold” was surrounded by
the tag, but the urls were not surrounded with tags.

This is bold. These are urls - www.foo.com , http://www.foo.com , foo[http://www.foo.com]

Is there a way to make this happen?

You should use RDoc::Markup from RDoc 2. RDoc 1’s SM is no longer
maintained.

As described in ri RDoc (for RDoc 2), valid URL formats are:

 word label}[url].

 Example hyperlinks:

   link:RDoc.html
   http://rdoc.rubyforge.org
   mailto:[email protected]
   {RDoc Documentation}[http://rdoc.rubyforge.org]
   {RDoc Markup}[link:RDoc/Markup.html]

So, adjusting your input to fit:

$ echo ‘This is bold. These are urls - http://www.foo.com,
foo[http://www.foo.com
]’ | rdoc --pipe

This is bold. These are urls - www.foo.com, foo
