markdown-alerts

Python-Markdown Admonition alternative extension with a shortened syntax. Depends Python-Markdown.

This extension supports one-line and multi-line text. The end of the remark block is an empty line.

Example:

:::info This is an one-line admonition!

:::info This is a
multi-line
admonition!

:::info
It works too!

This paragraph is not an admonition's part.

There can be an arbitrary number of spaces between the admonition start character ::: and the admonition type designation.

Supported admonition types:

:::info
:::note
:::tip
:::success
:::warning
:::danger

Installation and usage

Installation:

pip install markdown-alerts

Usage:

from markdown import Markdown

html = Markdown(extensions=['markdown_alerts'])

Configuration

By default, the extension installs the following CSS classes for div blocks. For example for :::note:

<div class="alert note">
<p>This is note!</p>
</div>

You can override these classes by adding your own configuration. Example for Bootstrap 5:

ext_configs = {
    'markdown_alerts': {
        'info': 'alert alert-info',
        'note': 'alert alert-primary',
        'tip': 'alert alert-success',
        'success': 'alert alert-success',
        'warning': 'alert alert-warning',
        'danger': 'alert alert-danger'
    }
}

html = Markdown(
            extensions=['markdown_alerts'],
            extension_configs=ext_configs
        )
