How to print out a markdown file on the console using node.js?

Question

I have a README.md (markdown syntax) that I want to print out to the console using node.js.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

First install markdown-js (https://github.com/evilstreak/markdown-js)

$ npm install markdown-js

Then make a javascript:

var markdown = require("markdown-js");
var fs = require("fs");

var str = fs.readFileSync("filename.md", "utf8");

var result = markdown.makeHtml(str);

console.log(result);
