Excellent, thanks for this. And I see now the need for defaults across transformation definitions as you commented on earlier. I'll work on merging this pull request and add a defaults feature.
@tbfisher Brian - first of all, thank you for creating this wonderful package. I'm starting to use it again frequently. I imagine you are busy with other things. Is there something I can do to help merge some of these old pull requests and put out a new release? Happy to help.
I created a new format to create Beamer pdf slides:
I also added beamer to the
pandoc-format-file
list of extensions, which I believe makes it output a file instead of new buffer.With the config above, I can generate a latex beamer document, but the ideal case is to create a beamer PDF directly from this command.
The example the pandoc command docs give for creating a beamer pdf:
To solve this, there is a need to independently define the file extension in addition to the
-t
parameter. Some ideas:-t
case logic in pandoc.py. If we know all the combos of to formats and desired extensions, we can add some logic in pandoc.py to solve this, e.g. IF t == "beamer", file-ext = "pdf". This would require more specificity within thepandoc-arguments
format config file.pandoc-arguments
parameters, addfile-ext
to define the extension to stick onto the end of the pandoc command. I think pandoc.py lines 117 to 123 would need to be modified to accommodate this.
