php - smarty include markdown file -

i want include markdown file in smarty template.

in php have this:

$smarty->assign('text', 'path_to_file/text.md');

in template use:

{include file=$text}

but returns unformated block of text.

i tried using david scherer’s markdown plugin smarty:

{markdown text=$text}

but returns file path stored in $text variable.

how smarty parse included file markdown?

you instead read file , assign contents variable, use markdown plugin.

$smarty->assign('text', file_get_contents('path_to_file/text.md'));
