RST for Drupal 7

Dependencies

https://www.drupal.org/project/xautoload

Installation

1. Download and unpack the reStructuredText module directory in your modules folder
   (this will usually be "sites/all/modules/").
2. Go to "Administer" -> "Modules" and enable the module.
3. Set up a new text format or add reStructuredText support to an existing text format at
   Administer -> Configuration -> Content Authoring -> Text formats

RST for Drupal 8

The Drupal 8 version follows the recommended composer installation process: You should require it in your project like so:

composer require drupal/rst

This will install the Drupal 8 version of the RST module and require all the needed PHP libraries.

Then similarly to the D7 version:

1. Go to "Extend" (/admin/modules).
2. Search for the "ReStructuredText filter (RST)" module and enable it.
3. Set up a new text format or add reStructuredText support to an existing text format at "Configuration" -> "Text formats and editors" (/admin/config/content/formats).

Global notes

Important note about running reStructuredText with other input filters

reStructuredText may conflict with other input filters, depending on the order
in which filters are configured to apply.
