Html::Pipeline::Abbr

This adds Abbreviation support to your html-pipeline.

Some implementations of Markdown support <abbr>, but it is not standard yet. It does look like [CommonMark] may include it. In the mean time, hope this helps.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'html-pipeline-abbr'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install html-pipeline-abbr

pipeline = HTML::Pipeline.new [
  HTML::Pipeline::MarkdownFilter,
  HTML::Pipeline::AbbrFilter,
]
result = pipeline.call <<-CODE
Lets generate some *great* HTML.

*[HTML]: Hypertext
CODE
puts result[:output].to_s

Prints:

<p>Lets generate some <strong>great</strong> <abbr title="Hypertxt">HTML</abbr>.</p>

On the flip side, there is also the AutoAbbrFilter which will find words that can be abbreviated and shorten them.

pipeline = HTML::Pipeline.new [
  HTML::Pipeline::MarkdownFilter,
  HTML::Pipeline::AutoAbbrFilter,
]
result = pipeline.call <<-CODE
Lets generate some *great* Hypertext.

*[HTML]: Hypertext
CODE
puts result[:output].to_s

It produces the same output:

<p>Lets generate some <strong>great</strong> <abbr title="Hypertxt">HTML</abbr>.</p>
