pdc

a pandoc wrapper for node.js

Installation

npm install pdc

This package requires pandoc to be installed and to be in PATH.

Usage

var pandoc = require('pdc');

pandoc('# Heading', 'markdown', 'html', function(err, result) {
  if (err)
    throw err;

  console.log(result);
});

This will print:

<h1 id="heading">Heading</h1>

API

pandoc(src, from, to[, options], callback);
  • src is a string containing the entire source text, that shall be converted.
  • from is a string containing the type of the source text. (E.g. 'markdown')
  • to is a string containing the type of the destination text. (E.g. 'html')
  • options [optional] is an array with additional command line flags (E.g. [ '-v' ] for pandocs version).
  • callback is a function that is called after parsing. It takes two arguments (err, result), where err is an error or null and result is a string containing the converted text.

I’d like to thank John MacFarlane for creating such a great tool, that adds so many possibilities to Markdown, and of course John Gruber for creating Markdown itself.
