scrivomatic / pandocomatic problems after upgrade #26

Closed htvogler closed 5 years ago

htvogler commented 5 years ago

Hi everyone. I have the following problem.

After upgrading to pandocomatic 0.2.5.0 my documents are not converted anymore. I followed all the general instructions here and the instructions to install ruby 2.6.2 via rbenv here. I migrated my pandoc data folder from ~/.pandoc to ~/.local/share/pandoc. Although all components seem to be in the right place my scrivener documents are not converted anymore. It seems that pandocomatic doesn't take the input.

Interestingly, the Workflow.scriv works without any problems.

Does anyone have an idea what I'm missing here? Thanks for any kind of help!

Okay, I figured it out. For whatever reason, Scrivener populated the metadata in the Compile dialog with the "Title" and "Author" fields.

This led to an additional block of metadata in the .mmd file that is initially produced by Scrivener.

Once the Scrivener metadata are deleted, everything works as expected.

Your example should have worked; having two metadata blocks in one file should not matter for pandocomatic to recognize the pandocomatic_ property regardless if that property is in the first or second YAML metadata block.

I will investigate this from my end; I have created an issue for it.

I found the issue in pandocomatic and fixed it. If you install pandocomatic 0.2.5.1 and try your original scenario again, does it work as expected?

Wow, very fast fix, thanks Huub!

htvogler commented 5 years ago

Yes, works perfectly now! Thank you very much for the quick fix, Huub. Also huge thanks to you, Ian. The scrivomatic/pandocomatic workflow saves me a lot of time!
