CML To HTML Converter

What is CML?

Check out the spec!

What does this library do?

This NPM library is just a single function that implements the CML spec by converting a string of CML into HTML.

How do I use it?

• Install it using NPM: npm install cml-html-converter
• require the module, then call it (example code is best read in github readme. NPM has issues with tabs).

var converter = require('cml-html-converter');
var exampleString = "if the first line contains a line break after it, it is rendered as a header\n" +
"\n" +
"sub headings are single lines that have a line break before and after them, but are not the first line\n" +
"\n" +
"This single line contains a period.  Therefore, it is rendered as a paragraph.  It also contains a link to http://www.google.com, so that is rendered appropriately.\n"+
"\n" +
"lines that either directly preceed another line of text\n" + 
"	or directly succeed another line of text\n" +
"		are rendered as lists\n" +
"			they can also contain links http://www.google.com\n" +
"				you can only forward indent\n" +
"					one tab\n" + 
"						at a\n" +
"							time\n" +
"				but you can back indent as much as you'd like\n" +
"\n" +
"sub heading 2\n";
var htmlString = converter(exampleCMLString); 

• in the example above htmlString should look something like this:

<h1>if the first line contains a line break after it, it is rendered as a header</h1>
<h2>sub headings are single lines that have a line break before and after them, but are not the first line</h2>
<p>This single line contains a period.  Therefore, it is rendered as a paragraph.  It also contains a link to <a href="http://www.google.com">http://www.google.com</a>, so that is rendered appropriately.</p>
<ul>
	<li>
		lines that either directly preceed another line of text
		<ul>
			<li>
				or directly succeed another line of text
				<ul>
					<li>
						are rendered as lists
						<ul>
							<li>
