# Text::Markup::Rest(3pm)

reStructuredText parser for Text::Markup

## Name

Text::Markup::Rest - reStructuredText parser for Text::Markup

## Synopsis

```
  use Text::Markup;
  my $html = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'hello.rst');
```

## Description

This is the reStructuredText \<https://docutils.sourceforge.io/rst.html\> parser for Text::Markup. It depends on the `"docutils"` Python package, which can be found as `"python3-docutils"` in many Linux distributions, or installed using the command `"pip install docutils"`. It recognizes files with the following extensions as reST:

- *.rest*

  - *.rst*

  To change it the files it recognizes, load this module directly and pass a regular expression matching the desired extension(s), like so:

```
  use Text::Markup::Rest qr{re?st(?:aurant)};
```
