How to implement markdown editor using TinyMCE?

Question

I want to add a markdown editor so that users can post their answers on my page. I found TinyMCE, but there is a problem with this: I do not know how to implement the tag editor with TinyMCE.

Does anyone have any experience with this? Please show me how to set up the tag editor.

It looks like the Plugin Text Template can do this:

This plugin conforms to special patterns in the text and applies formats or executable commands on these patterns.

...

tinymce.init({ selector: "textarea", // change this value according to your HTML plugin: 'textpattern', textpattern_patterns: [ {start: '*', end: '*', format: 'italic'}, {start: '**', end: '**', format: 'bold'}, {start: '#', format: 'h1'}, {start: '##', format: 'h2'}, {start: '###', format: 'h3'}, {start: '####', format: 'h4'}, {start: '#####', format: 'h5'}, {start: '######', format: 'h6'}, {start: '1. ', cmd: 'InsertOrderedList'}, {start: '* ', cmd: 'InsertUnorderedList'}, {start: '- ', cmd: 'InsertUnorderedList'} ] });
