Does Gramex have inbuild Markdown handler? If yes, how to use that? - gramex

Question

Trying to create a wiki site similar to gramex help document.
For that, I have gramex.yaml that reads
url:
main:
pattern: /$YAMLURL/
handler: FileHandler
kwargs:
index: false
path:
"": $YAMLPATH/{dir}/readme.md
transform:
"*.md":
encoding: utf-8
function: markdown.markdown(content)
headers:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
File tree looks like:
$ tree
.
├── behave
│ └── readme.md
├── gramex.yaml
└── readme.md
But it does not seem to render any MARKDOWN files as HTML.
Do I need to create this markdown.markdown function?
or Is this function readily available in gramex?
Edit 1:
The render issue came because of {dir} in path.
Solution:
Remove {dir} and make the new path as :- $YAMLPATH/readme.md
EDIT 2: NEW PROBLEM
Markdown tables are not rendered
I have a table in the markdown as:
| Criteria | Behave | Pytest |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Readability | Tests are written in natural language format, making them easier to understand by both technical and non-technical stakeholders. | Tests are written in code format, which can be challenging for non-technical stakeholders to understand. |
That must be rendered as:
but the webpage shows:

Answer 1

If you change
function: markdown.markdown(content)
... to
function: markdown.markdown(content, extensions=['extra'])
... it starts working, thanks to the tables extension which is part of the extra extension.
For more Python markdown options, see https://python-markdown.github.io/reference/.
