ReStructuredText
A parser for text written in reStructuredText markup. Instances of this class may be passed directly to the Parseer or Transformer APIs:
val document = MarkupParser.of(ReStructuredText).build.parse(inputString)
Transformer.from(ReStructuredText).to(HTML).build.transform(inputString)
In addition to the implementing the standard reStructuredText directives, the Laika APIs also supports a custom directive type unique to Laika. They represent a library-wide extension mechanism and allow you to implement tags which can be used in any of the supported markup formats or in templates.
Laika directives can be registered with the laika.api.bundle.DirectiveRegistry extension bundle.

Concrete methods
Creates the parser for a sequence of blocks based on the parser for a single block.
Creates the parser for a sequence of blocks based on the parser for a single block.
The parser for a single block is already the result of merging all block parsers defined within this instance with all extension parsers defined by the user.
The default implementation simply applies this parser repeatedly while skipping blank lines between the parsed blocks. This method can get overridden for special requirements, for example when the previous result has an influence on which parser to pick for the subsequent block.

Parses the character after the one that started the escape sequence (usually a backslash).
The default implementation parses any character as is, this can be overridden in case the host language has more specific rules for escape sequences.

The parser-specific extensions that need to be installed for each transformation that involves this parser.
One scenario where a parser needs to provide a bundle is when it produces tree elements that are unknown to the built-in rewrite rules and renderers.

The file suffixes recognized by this parser.
The file suffixes recognized by this parser. When transforming entire directories only files with names ending in one of the specified suffixes will be considered.
It is recommended not to support txt or similarly common suffixes as this might interfere with other installed formats.
