only convert, do not publish? about md2conf HOT 3 CLOSED

An implementation has been pushed to the branch devel, which uses a new command-line switch --local to output files to local file system instead of interacting with Confluence API. Obviously, this new mode comes with limitations because it cannot extract information from pages already published to Confluence. The generated files are placed next to the originals, with extension .csf (which stands for Confluence Storage Format). Both single files and directory hierarchies should work.

This is definitely an interesting feature proposal. (Unfortunately, not implemented at the moment.) What the library does internally is convert Markdown documents into Confluence storage format (CSF), which is a special mix of HTML and XML. Then, it interacts with Confluence API to send generated CSF documents and upload images. The process is mostly sequential, though not completely. (For example, the application invokes Confluence API to look up page ID based on document title, or fetch a document to see if there are any changes.) However, I can envision a configuration setting that would simply output CSF documents and leave the uploading to you. (I am not sure how effectively it would integrate with Ansible, though.)

Would be easily integratable as proposed! We also did this internally with your code, but we heavily modified it. Not sure if you would like it how it is.
