and no longer supports floatsheading_permalink/slug_normalizer
has been renamed toslug_normalizer/instance
- Event dispatching is now fully PSR-14 compliant
- Moved and renamed several classes - see the full list here
- The
HeadingPermalinkExtension
andFootnoteExtension
were modified to ensure they never produce a slug which conflicts with slugs created by the other extension SlugNormalizer::normalizer()
now supports optional prefixes and max length options passed in via the$context
argument- The
AbstractBlock::$data
andAbstractInline::$data
arrays were replaced with aData
array-like object on the baseNode
class - Implemented a new approach to block parsing. This was a massive change, so here are the highlights:
- Functionality previously found in block parsers and node elements has moved to block parser factories and block parsers, respectively (more details)
ConfigurableEnvironmentInterface::addBlockParser()
is nowEnvironmentBuilderInterface::addBlockParserFactory()
ReferenceParser
was re-implemented and works completely different than before- The paragraph parser no longer needs to be added manually to the environment
- Implemented a new approach to inline parsing where parsers can now specify longer strings or regular expressions they want to parse (instead of just single characters):
InlineParserInterface::getCharacters()
is nowgetMatchDefinition()
and returns an instance ofInlineParserMatch
InlineParserContext::__construct()
now requires the contents to be provided as aCursor
instead of astring
- Implemented delimiter parsing as a special type of inline parser (via the new
DelimiterParser
class) - Changed block and inline rendering to use common methods and interfaces
BlockRendererInterface
andInlineRendererInterface
were replaced byNodeRendererInterface
with slightly different parameters. All core renderers now implement this interface.ConfigurableEnvironmentInterface::addBlockRenderer()
andaddInlineRenderer()
were combined intoEnvironmentBuilderInterface::addRenderer()
EnvironmentInterface::getBlockRenderersForClass()
andgetInlineRenderersForClass()
are now justgetRenderersForClass()
- Completely refactored the Configuration implementation
- All configuration-specific classes have been moved into a new
league/config
package with a new namespace Configuration
objects must now be configured with a schema and all options must match that schema - arbitrary keys are no longer permittedConfiguration::__construct()
no longer accepts the default configuration values - useConfiguration::merge()
insteadConfigurationInterface
now only contains aget(string $key)
; this method no longer allows arbitrary default values to be returned if the option is missingConfigurableEnvironmentInterface
was renamed toEnvironmentBuilderInterface
ExtensionInterface::register()
now requires anEnvironmentBuilderInterface
param instead ofConfigurableEnvironmentInterface
- All configuration-specific classes have been moved into a new
- Added missing return types to virtually every class and interface method
- Re-implemented the GFM Autolink extension using the new inline parser approach instead of document processors
EmailAutolinkProcessor
is nowEmailAutolinkParser
UrlAutolinkProcessor
is nowUrlAutolinkParser
HtmlElement
can now properly handle array (i.e.class
) and boolean (i.e.checked
) attribute valuesHtmlElement
automatically flattens any attributes with array values into space-separated strings, removing duplicate entries- Combined separate classes/interfaces into one:
DisallowedRawHtmlRenderer
replacesDisallowedRawHtmlBlockRenderer
andDisallowedRawHtmlInlineRenderer
NodeRendererInterface
replacesBlockRendererInterface
andInlineRendererInterface
- Renamed the following methods:
Environment
andConfigurableEnvironmentInterface
:addBlockParser()
is nowaddBlockStartParser()
ReferenceMap
andReferenceMapInterface
:addReference()
is nowadd()
getReference()
is nowget()
listReferences()
is nowgetIterator()
- Various node (block/inline) classes:
getContent()
is nowgetLiteral()
setContent()
is nowsetLiteral()
- Moved and renamed the following constants:
EnvironmentInterface::HTML_INPUT_ALLOW
is nowHtmlFilter::ALLOW
EnvironmentInterface::HTML_INPUT_ESCAPE
is nowHtmlFilter::ESCAPE
EnvironmentInterface::HTML_INPUT_STRIP
is nowHtmlFilter::STRIP
TableCell::TYPE_HEAD
is nowTableCell::TYPE_HEADER
TableCell::TYPE_BODY
is nowTableCell::TYPE_DATA
- Changed the visibility of the following properties:
AttributesInline::$attributes
is nowprivate
AttributesInline::$block
is nowprivate
TableCell::$align
is nowprivate
TableCell::$type
is nowprivate
TableSection::$type
is nowprivate
- Several methods which previously returned
$this
now returnvoid
Delimiter::setPrevious()
Node::replaceChildren()

nodes no longer directly contain a copy of their inner textStringContainerInterface
can now be used for inlines, not just blocksArrayCollection
only supports integer keysHtmlElement
now implementsStringable
Cursor::saveState()
andCursor::restoreState()
now useCursorState
objects instead of arraysNodeWalker::next()
now enters, traverses any children, and leaves all elements which may have children (basically all blocks plus any inlines with children). Previously, it only did this for elements explicitly marked as "containers".InvalidOptionException
was removed- Anything with a
getReference(): ReferenceInterface
method now implementsReferencableInterface
- The
SmartPunct
extension now replaces all unpairedQuote
elements withText
elements towards the end of parsing, making theQuoteRenderer
unnecessary - Several changes made to the Footnote extension:
- Footnote identifiers can no longer contain spaces
- Anonymous footnotes can now span subsequent lines
- Footnotes can now contain multiple lines of content, including sub-blocks, by indenting them
- Footnote event listeners now have numbered priorities (but still execute in the same order)
- Footnotes must now be separated from previous content by a blank line
- The line numbers (keys) returned via
MarkdownInput::getLines()
now start at 1 instead of 0 DelimiterProcessorCollectionInterface
now extendsCountable
RegexHelper::PARTIAL_
constants must always be used in case-insensitive contextsHeadingPermalinkProcessor
no longer accepts text normalizers via the constructor - these must be provided via configuration instead- Blocks which can't contain inlines will no longer be asked to render inlines
AnonymousFootnoteRefParser
andHeadingPermalinkProcessor
now implementEnvironmentAwareInterface
instead ofConfigurationAwareInterface
- The second argument to
TextNormalizerInterface::normalize()
must now be an array - The
title
attribute forLink
andImage
nodes is now stored using a dedicated property instead of stashing it in$data
ListData::$delimiter
now returns eitherListBlock::DELIM_PERIOD
orListBlock::DELIM_PAREN
instead of the literal delimiter

Environment
and add the necessary extensions yourself
- Alternative 1: Use
