How to build from source

[PHHENS]

Dear Developper, Thanks for panwriter, which is already a great tool.

The giving procedure : git clone git@github.com:mb21/panwriter.git cd panwriter yarn install

Does not work out the box : git clone https://github.com/mb21/panwriter --> modified URL cd panwriter yarn install ---> 00h00m00s 0/0: : ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'install'

Can you update the procedure so that a newbie can build ;-)

The instructions are for unix (mac or linux).. exact command might differ on windows... also make sure you have yarn installed: https://yarnpkg.com ... and if you don't want to use git on the commandline, I can recommend https://desktop.github.com

I am under Debian Buster, yarn is installed through apt : yarn install 00h00m00s 0/0: : ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'install'

Thanks for your fast feedback ;-)

It seems that under debian the command is yarnpkg instead of yarn ... yarnpkg install seems to work...

Managed to compile, and it runs into web browser. But how to build the standalone app ?

Thanks.

I finally managed to build the standalone app. Get some other questions :

• The page preview seems have a bug on codeblocks (html pre) : pre{ color : black; background : #f0f0f0;border-radius: 5pt 5pt; } renders bad on page preview.

• markdown #. statement is not interpreted (autonumbering).

• How to add page numbers in a footer when exporting pdf ?

Thanks for your help.

The page preview seems have a bug

Can you reproduce it with plain paged.js ? If so, it's a bug in that library PanWriter relies on....

markdown #. statement is not interpreted (autonumbering).

I think that syntax is not in CommonMark...

How to add page numbers in a footer when exporting pdf ?

exporting with pandoc or directly from the preview?

Visualize in panwriter page preview (with page breaks), the background is black instead of grey. 

markdown #. statement is not interpreted (autonumbering). I think that syntax is not in CommonMark... OK, but is very convinient ;-) How to add page numbers in a footer when exporting pdf ? exporting with pandoc or directly from the preview? It would be nice to have it directly in the preview and of course the same way in exported pdf ;-) — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.

Thanks! This should be fixed with https://github.com/mb21/panwriter/commit/0981762e924b3725f76d0e6cfd7078b606223b53

markdown #. statement is not interpreted (autonumbering).

You can use instead:

1. foo
1. bar

For the page numbering, it really depends whether you want to use pandoc+LaTeX for the PDF export or export from the preview directly, see https://github.com/mb21/panwriter#usage. If the latter, then you can use the following CSS:

@page {
  @bottom-left {
    content: counter(page) ' of ' counter(pages);
  }
}

@PHHENS now when you figured building it from source, will you create a debian package? https://github.com/mb21/panwriter/issues/35

Since building from source works, I'll close this issue...
