Markdown Viewer

Open, inspect, format, and export PeopleSoft markdown files.

The Markdown Viewer renders PeopleSoft markdown export files (.md, .markdown, .txt) directly in the browser with full table formatting, syntax-highlighted code fences, and callout blocks.

Overview

psLens allows exporting any PeopleSoft object definition (records, pages, components, roles, permission lists, app engines, queries) and report run to markdown. When users download these files, they can view and inspect them without external markdown editors or desktop utilities.

The viewer is available at /markdown-viewer or through the Tools section in the sidebar.

Loading Markdown Files

The tool supports three input methods:

  • Drag and Drop: Drop any .md, .markdown, or .txt file onto the upload zone.
  • File Browser: Click Select File to choose a file from your computer.
  • Paste Content: Paste raw markdown text into the content area and click Render Markdown.

File uploads are processed in-memory and are bounded to 25MB per file.

Document Features

When a document is loaded, the viewer displays:

  • Document Statistics: Filename, word count, estimated reading time, file size, and table counts.
  • Rendered View: GitHub-flavored markdown with styled tables, task lists, and PeopleSoft-specific callout admonitions (NOTE, TIP, IMPORTANT, WARNING, CAUTION).
  • Code Highlighting: Syntax-highlighted code fences for PeopleCode, SQL, HTML, XML, and CSS blocks.
  • View Toggle: Switch between the formatted rendered view and raw source text.
  • Clipboard Copy: One-click copy for the entire raw markdown text.
  • Print and PDF Export: Browser printing strips application navigation and sidebar elements, producing a clean document for PDF generation or physical printing.
  • Open Another: Reset the view to open or paste another file.
