Safely render long_description/README files in Warehouse

Readme Renderer

Readme Renderer is a library that will safely render arbitrary README files into HTML. It is designed to be used in Warehouse to render the long_description for packages. It can handle Markdown, reStructuredText (.rst), and plain text.

Check Description Locally

To locally check whether your long descriptions will render on PyPI, first build your distributions, and then use the twine check command.

Render rST Description Locally

You can use readme_renderer on the command line to render an rST file as HTML like this:

python -m readme_renderer README.rst -o /tmp/README.html

Code of Conduct

Everyone interacting in the readme_renderer project's codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the PSF Code of Conduct.
