I am in the process of migrating my old wiki from a Dokuwiki installation to a collection of markdown pages that I can maintain with git and some web tools (GitHub, ReadtheDocs, etc). Steps for this are: Use dokuwiki2git to export a git repository of the pages Copy pages. Perl scripts to add table of contents TOC to markdown, convert Dokuwiki to markdown - wqking/markdownutil.
Looking for a free text converter? Look no more, upload your DokuWiki markup files and convert them to CommonMark Markdown files. Yes, it’s that easy.
Converting from DokuWiki markup
DokuWiki is basically the Mediawiki syntax. And Mediawiki powers Wikipedia, so I think it’s fair to say it’s a widely used format. The DokuWiki system is based on PHP and uses plain text files, instead of a database. With DokuWiki you can structure those text files, e. g. put headlines above a paragraph, add links and so on. If you want to convert those DokuWiki files to another format (to migrate to another system for example) or want to convert your files to DokuWiki files, we got you covered. Upload all your wisdom and we spit out the format you’re looking for, for free.
The files end with .txt
by default.
Converting to CommonMark Markdown
Markdown was developed in 2004, with a spec and an implementation in Perl. Over the years implementations for more and more programming languages evolved. Unfortunately the specification was ambiguous in some points, so some implementations did things differently. CommonMark was developed 10 years later, in 2014, with an unambiguous spec and tests to see if new implementations are correct according to the spec. A few big players (GitHub, GitLab, Reddit, Swift and many more) adopted this common standard. So it’s basically the standard you might know already. Upload your CommonMark Markdown files and convert them for free, to any other text format! Or upload your text files and convert them all to CommonMark Markdown, for free!
