I need help getting a clue. I think my paltry experience compiling C code is a roadblock to understanding how to use some of the Raku modules for using the interface to the CommonMark C library to convert markdown to HTML.
Problem:
I'm on a mac with the cmark library installed with homebrew. I'm using the CommonMark module. It works, but if I have embedded html in my markdown, I get:
<!-- raw HTML omitted -->
in the output. AFAICT, CommonMark has an option for turning this on or off: https://github.com/commonmark/cmark/blob/8a023286198a7e408398e282f293e3b0baebb644/src/html.c#L171
The CommonMark module does not appear to allow me to pass argument to the cmark library. This module seems to: https://raku.land/github:JJ/cmark::Simple
However, I can't really make heads or tails of the documentation because I don't understand how to interface with the cmark library. And I'm not even sure if this module will work on a mac. This module seems to assume it should be installed on debian.
Can someone please clue me in?
