Method parseBlocks

markdown/blockparser.py:138–160

Process blocks of Markdown text and attach to given `etree` node. Given a list of `blocks`, each `blockprocessor` is stepped through until there are no blocks left. While an extension could potentially call this method directly, it's generally expected to be used in

(self, parent: etree.Element, blocks: list[str])

        self.parseBlocks(parent, text.split('\n\n'))

    def parseBlocks(self, parent: etree.Element, blocks: list[str]) -> None:

        This is a public method as an extension may need to add/alter
        additional `BlockProcessors` which call this method to recursively
        parse a nested block.

        Arguments:
            parent: The parent element.
            blocks: The blocks of text to parse.
