# Use language and output extensions on the same block
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Showdown allows you to define and use any number of extensions that act on the same block. These extensions can be executed sequentially or at different moments.
|
||||
|
||||
This enables you to pre-parse/mark a block of text but defer any modifications for the last by using a combination of language and output extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
This is useful if you, for example, don't want Showdown to parse the contents of your new language construct.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
Let's say you create an extension that captures everything between `%start%` and `%end%`. However, that content should not be modified by Showdown. Obviously, you can use `<pre>` tags but that is beside the point.
|
||||
|
||||
Although Showdown doesn't have any flag to prevent parsing the content of an extension, the same effect can be easily achieved by using lang and output extensions together.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! example ""
|
||||
The fully working example you can see in [Fiddle][1].
|
||||
|
||||
### Code
|
||||
|
||||
[Create your extensions](../create-extension.md) with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
showdown.extension('myExt', function() {
|
||||
var matches = [];
|
||||
return [
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'lang',
|
||||
regex: /%start%([^]+?)%end%/gi,
|
||||
replace: function(s, match) {
|
||||
matches.push(match);
|
||||
var n = matches.length - 1;
|
||||
return '%PLACEHOLDER' + n + '%';
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: 'output',
|
||||
filter: function (text) {
|
||||
for (var i=0; i< matches.length; ++i) {
|
||||
var pat = '<p>%PLACEHOLDER' + i + '% *<\/p>';
|
||||
text = text.replace(new RegExp(pat, 'gi'), matches[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
//reset array
|
||||
matches = [];
|
||||
return text;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, you created a [`lang` extension](../create-extension.md#type) that:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Checks for the pseudo tags `%start%` and `%end%`.
|
||||
1. Extracts everything in between the tags.
|
||||
1. Saves the content between the tags in a variable.
|
||||
1. Replaces the saved content with a placeholder to identify the exact position of the extracted text.
|
||||
|
||||
and an [`output` extension](../create-extension.md#type) that replaces the placeholder with the saved content, once Showdown is finished parsing.
