#readme-generator Build Status Convert those boring plain text readmes to GitHub markdown automagically. ##Usage Install the dependencies by typing the following: pip install -r requirements.txt. Then, run python converter.py (within a GitHub repository's directory), and the script will automagically find your README.md and place the converted file in OUTPUT.md. ###Arguments

Argument Function
-l Add language information to the README. Added to the end of the file (before contributor data if applicable) unless "BEGIN READMELANG" and "END READMELANG" comment tags are present.
-c Add contributor information to the README. Added to the end of the file unless "BEGIN READMECONTRIB" and "END READMECONTRIB" comment tags are present.
-f Fast-forward and do not confirm README.md overwrite. A backup is still made in README.backup.
  • Markdown linebreaks are inserted wherever a "\n" exists in the text file.
  • Lines that end with a colon and have a blank padding line below will become markdown headings. This readme was generated with the script! It also has a code find functionality: api. Putting words in underscores tells the script to find the occurrence of the word in the repository and return the URL to that specific line of code.

##Languages Used

  • Python (100.0%)
