Markdown Parser HTTP Server

This is a simple HTTP server written in Rust that accepts Markdown content via POST requests and returns the corresponding HTML. It uses the warp web framework for handling HTTP requests and pulldown-cmark for parsing Markdown.

Features

• Accepts Markdown content via HTTP POST requests.
• Converts Markdown to HTML.
• Returns the HTML as the response.

Prerequisites

• Rust and Cargo installed on your machine.

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/darshansrc/markdown-parser-rust.git
   cd markdown-parser-rust

2. Build the project:

   cargo build

3. Run the server:

   cargo run

   The server will start on localhost:3030.

Usage

You can test the server using curl or any HTTP client by sending a POST request with Markdown content.

Example using curl:

curl -X POST -d '# Hello World' http://localhost:3030

This will return:

<h1>Hello World</h1>
