Rendering markdown inside specific sections

[merfed]

I have a extension I created that creates a banner, it has 3 renderers: root banner element, banner image, and banner caption. The syntax is ~[caption](image_url). Everything works as I expect, except for one thing, how can I get markdown to parse in the caption. Such as ~[_test_](image_url). It's simply outputting "test" as the caption instead of converted markdown.

I've looked through the docs, but maybe I missed something.

I assume you meant this to say outputting "_test_" as the caption rather than showing the italics here? :)

But it sounds like you need to recursively parse the caption contents, probably with the InlinesOnlyExtension extension enabled.

This is what I have:

<?php

namespace App\Extensions\Banner;

use League\CommonMark\Extension\CommonMark\Node\Inline\Image;
use League\CommonMark\Node\Inline\Text;
use League\CommonMark\Parser\Inline\InlineParserInterface;
use League\CommonMark\Parser\Inline\InlineParserMatch;
use League\CommonMark\Parser\InlineParserContext;

final class BannerInlineParser implements InlineParserInterface
{
    public function getMatchDefinition(): InlineParserMatch
    {
        return InlineParserMatch::regex('^~\[([^~\]]*)\]\(([^~\]]*)\)');
    }

    public function parse(InlineParserContext $inlineContext): bool
    {
        $cursor = $inlineContext->getCursor();

        if (! $cursor->match($this->getMatchDefinition()->getRegex())) {
            return false;
        }

        [$caption, $url] = $inlineContext->getSubMatches();

        $cursor->advanceBy($inlineContext->getFullMatchLength());

        $bannerNode = new BannerNode();

        $image = new Image($url);
        $bannerNode->appendChild($image);
        
        if ($caption !== '') {
            $captionNode = new BannerCaption();
            $captionNode->appendChild(new Text($caption));

            $bannerNode->appendChild($captionNode);
        }

        $inlineContext->getContainer()->appendChild($bannerNode);

        return true;
    }
}

Should text inside the Text node, not get parsed by the markdown parser? That seems to be the case.
