Feature: Add markdown to HTML conversion support about vimwiki HOT 7 CLOSED

I did create a rubygem (vimwiki_markdown) if you want to try that. It's very much a work in progress and does require some config, but it's working for me!

from vimwiki.

For the record: there is a promising attempt to standardize markdown syntax here: http://commonmark.org/

I currently use a custom php script convert markdown to html (use custom_wiki2html option), additionally vimwiki link is [link] instead [link](link), so standard markdown parser couldn't create link properly, the custom script needs to address this issue too.

One more thing, diary index page isn't good for markdown neither.

I've found the following thread hugely helpful in getting a good automatic markdown->html export set up.

I'm doing pip3 install vimwiki_markdown and in my config: 'custom_wiki2html': 'vimwiki_markdown' + 'syntax': 'markdown', 'ext': '.md'

would be nice if vimwiki would handle it natively tho.

pandoc is the recommended way of doing. Here is my wiki2html. There is the same in the doc.

As of 2020, there is still no native markdown conversion
If someone is willing to create a vimscript for the conversion mdforvim may be a good start.
Meanwhile, I prefer to close, just to narrow the dev scope.
