# markdown-it-deflist.rs
[
](https://crates.io/crates/markdown-it-deflist)
A [markdown-it.rs](https://crates.io/crates/markdown-it) plugin to process definition lists.
It is based on the [pandoc definition](http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/README.html#definition-lists):
```md
Term 1
: Definition 1
Term 2 with *inline markup*
: Definition 2
{ some code, part of Definition 2 }
Third paragraph of definition 2.
```
See the [tests](tests/fixtures) for more examples.
## Usage
```rust
let parser = &mut markdown_it::MarkdownIt::new();
markdown_it::plugins::cmark::add(md);
markdown_it_deflist::add(parser);
parser.parse("term\n: definition").render();
// \n- term
\n- definition
\n
\n
```
