Error `Could not find executable pandoc-latex-environment` with awesomebox #311

I’m not sure why, but when I run the following:

pandoc "boxes.md" -o "boxes.pdf" --from markdown --template "../../eisvogel.tex" --filter pandoc-latex-environment --listings

from the examples/boxes-with-pandoc-latex-environment-and-awesomebox (which is exactly the build.sh script on the repo with the corresponding document names) on my computer, I get the following error:

Error running filter pandoc-latex-environment:
Could not find executable pandoc-latex-environment

Nevermind, I found the answer. Just in case someone else wonders as well, follow these steps.

  1. Needs the python executable pandoc-latex-environment, so install it: 
    pip install pandoc-latex-environment
  2. Then, add to your PATH (change according to your system/where the executable is): 
    export PATH="/home/USER/.local/bin:$PATH"
