How to convert JIRA's wiki markup to HTML?

[Jouni]

I used DefaultWysiwygConverter (from http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.atlassian.renderer/atlassian-renderer/8.0.5) to convert HTML to Wiki markup, but didn't manage to do the opposite. I tried following:

DefaultWysiwygConverter converter = new DefaultWysiwygConverter();
RenderContext context = new RenderContext();

String wikiMarkup = ...

String html = converter.convertWikiMarkupToXHtml(context, wikiMarkup);

But this failed, since apparently something called "WikiStyleRenderer" was not defined in DefaultWysiwygConverter.

Any tips on how to get Wiki markup to HTML work?

2 ways 

#1 
you can use the /render api to convert markup to html

 curl -XPOST "/rest/api/1.0/render" -H 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=utf-8' -d '{"rendererType":"atlassian-wiki-renderer","unrenderedMarkup":"*Hello World*"}'

#2 

or you can use 

expand=renderedBody

for eg. if you it is an issue comment 

curl -XGET "/rest/api/3/issue/${issueId}/comment/${commentId}?expand=renderedBody"

will give you html body in the response

So long as you have an issue in context (usually the case in JIRA):

JiraRendererPlugin wikiRenderer = fRendererManager.getRendererForType("atlassian-wiki-renderer");
IssueRenderContext renderContext = renderContext = new IssueRenderContext(issueObject);
String html = wikiRenderer.render(wikiMarkup, renderContext);

Hello @Andy Brook

I know this is an old thread but I want to know how to run the code block you shared here. 

My issue here is, I cant add jira packages in IntelliJ. Can you please help what should I do?

Thanks!

Does anyone know how to do this in Python?

[Suresh Mateti]

I have used renderFields.description property to get the HTML Markup.

thanks for your suggestion.

Were you able to resolve this issue?

With automation {{issue.description.html}} worked for me.
