Pandoc use

[12u...@gmail.com]

Hi folks,

 

Linux is Debian buster + Erlang packages V.1:24.0.5-1 from erlang-solutions.

 

The final goal is to convert a blog's comments posts to html files, in order to serve them faster with nginx and to generate more easily other pages.

 

I feel miserable as I spent hours to try to get pandoc working into Nitrogen, but to no avail :(

* Template is a copy of ORG index.html, just added :[[[page:jypandoc()]]] after [[[page:body()]]]

 

** adding: options=[ {from, "markdown"}, {to, "html"} ] to the main() Fn ruins the page rendering :/

 

* tstpandoc.erl is a copy of ORG index.erl (just kept the button anf the text below, in which I added:

 

** jypandoc - >  wf:pandoc(

wf:to_unicode_binary(
"= Welcome to Nitrogen! =

== This is Title level 2 ==

For beautifiers we have **bold** and //italic//.

[…]

" )).

 

*** adding: [ {from, "markdown"}, {to, "html"} ] to this Fn doesn't change anything (page is still ruined) - removing the wf:pandoc call also fails:

 

error:undef -------------------------- [{wf,pandoc, [<<"= Welcome to Nitrogen! =\n\n== This is Title level 2 ==\n\nFor beautifiers we have **bold** and //italic//.\n\nThere is also __underline__, --strike-- and ``monospaced``.\n\n+ Numbered Title level 1 +\n blablabla\n++ Numbered Title level 2 ++\n bliblibli\n+++ Numbered Title level 3 +++\n blobloblo\n\n\n- This is a list of items\n- Just use hyphens\n - More indent opens a sublist\n\n\nTWO (!) blank lines close all the lists.\n">>, [{from,"markdown"},{to,"html"}]], []}, {element_function,call_next_function,1, [{file,"src/elements/other/element_function.erl"}, {line,35}]}, {wf_render_elements,call_element_render,3, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,153}]}, {wf_render_elements,prepare_and_render,3, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,122}]}, {wf_render_elements,inner_render_elements,1, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,42}]}, {wf_render_elements,inner_render_elements,1, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,42}]}, {wf_render_elements,prepare_and_render,3, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,122}]}, {wf_render_elements,render_elements,1, [{file,"src/lib/wf_render_elements.erl"},{line,34}]}]

So, after many tries, here I am (sniff)

In case of somebody meet the same problem, the call was baaad,

I added this at the end of the " inner_body() -> […]" bloc of a copy of index.erl:

, wf_pandoc:convert(

"same bla bla as before

(format = txt2tags == t2t for pandoc call)"

, [ {from, "t2t"}, {to, "html"} ]

)

I was also forced to modify 2 things, as described in this ticket, the default scratch DIR and a file of simple_bridge: simple_bridge_util.erl that did not created this DIR ; just in case, I repeat this here:

 

Move the scratch dir from "./scratch" (bad, where does it go?) to "/var/tmp/scratch" (good, well identified) - into: etc/simple_bridge.config

diff etc/simple_bridge.config_ORG etc/simple_bridge.config

45c45,46

< {scratch_dir, "./scratch"}

---

> %%%%%% {scratch_dir, "./scratch"}

> {scratch_dir, "/var/tmp/scratch"}

 

Check if the scratch DIR exist and if not, create it - into: lib/simple_bridge/src/simple_bridge_util.erl

diff simple_bridge_util.erl_ORG simple_bridge_util.erl

< Other -> Other
