Pandocl

A document converter built on CommonDoc.

Usage

Converting

The convert function takes two required arguments: The pathname of the input and the pathname of the output. Two optional keyword arguments, :input-format and :output-format, can be used to specify the format when the pathname is not enough to guess. It returns the parsed document.

CL-USER> (pandocl:convert #p"input.tex" #p"output.html")
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">

CL-USER> (pandocl:emit #p"input.tex" #p"output.html"
                       :input-format :vertex
                       :output-format :html)
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">

Parsing

The parse function takes a pathname and optionally an input format (Otherwise it guesses it from the pathname) and returns a CommonDoc document.

CL-USER> (pandocl:parse #p"path/to/doc.tex")
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">

CL-USER> (pandocl:parse #p"path/to/doc.tex" :format :vertex)
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">

Emitting

The emit function takes a document, a pathname to write it to, and optionally a format for the output (Otherwise it tries to guess from the pathname). It takes an extra two keyword arguments, :if-exists and :if-does-not-exist, which control behaviour when opening the file (See with-open-file). The function returns the document.

CL-USER> (pandocl:emit doc #p"path/to/output.html")
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">

CL-USER> (pandocl:emit doc #p"path/to/output.html" :format :html)
#<COMMON-DOC:DOCUMENT "My Document">
