Push a readme.md to confluence using confluence APIs

Hello,

 

So I'm trying to push readme to confluence, except that Confluence APIs accepts the body as json, but my readme is a multiline text.. In confluence I have a waiting plugin to convert the text into a well-formed readme :) 
So I'm trying to convert a multiline text into a single line so that I can automate pushing all readme to confluence.

 

One of my problem now is to locate the carriage return , and convert it into "\\n" but I'm new to groovy and I don't know how to do that.
One of the future struggle is going to be : how to parse through directories to locate readme.

many thanks

    Groovy supports multi line text

     

    def multiLine = '''line1 text
next line
and one more line'''

//Show as is
log.info multiLine

//Remove new lines / carriage returns
def newString = multiLine.replaceAll('\n', '').replaceAll('\r', '')

//See the diff with multiLine
log.info newString

      Yes, but as I am using confluence API to send back : so I have this body to fill
      Especially the value in which I am replacing ${Properties#body} by the readme.md text

      {
   "id" : "${Properties#pageId}",
   "type" : "page",
   "status" : "current",
   "title" : "Markdown test",
   "body" : {
     "storage" : {
         "value" : "<ac:structured-macro ac:name=\"markdown\" ac:schema-version=\"1\" ac:macro-id=\"1234\"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[${Properties#body}]]></ac:plain-text-body></ac:structured-macro>",
         "representation" : "storage",
         "_expandable" : {
            "content" : "/rest/api/content/${Properties#pageId}"
         }
     }
   },
   "version":{"number":${Properties#pageVersion}}
}

      To be more precise I have this readme: 

      ##  Title
text
## Another Title
another text

      That I want to convert into :

      ## Title \n text \n ## Another Title \n another text

      So that it can be supplied in the body in my request.

       

      Best regards,
