How can I apply a text formatter programatically?

[DrQuincy]

I want to manually render a string as markdown (TextformatterMarkdownExtra). How can I do this?

E.g. This is _a_ string becomes <p>This is <em>a</em> string</p>

Thanks.

Hello,

Documentation of this module is here: https://processwire.com/api/ref/textformatter-markdown-extra/

You can do something like:

modules('TextformatterMarkdownExtra')->format($text);
