Error in $: Failed reading: not a valid json value

[wikiti]

Hello,

First of all, nice suite of plugins.

I've tried to build the demo files (using the Makefile), and I keep receiving the following error, without anything built:

Error running filter pandoc-eqnos:
Error in $: Failed reading: not a valid json value

I've tried more simple files, like this one, and it still throws the same error:

# SAMPLE.md

$$ y = mx + b $$ {#eq:line}

Check Equation {@eq:line}.

> pandoc --filter pandoc-eqnos -o sample.html SAMPLE.md
Error running filter pandoc-eqnos:
Error in $: Failed reading: not a valid json value

Looks like if I build a .pdf instead of a .html file, it works.

Here are my tool versions:

> pandoc --version
pandoc 2.9.1.1
Compiled with pandoc-types 1.20, texmath 0.12, skylighting 0.8.3

> pandoc-eqnos --version
pandoc-eqnos 2.1.1

pandoc-fignos and pandog-tablenos works tho.

I saw this error once in another filter because warnings (or status messages) were going to stdout (which must only be json). Maybe enabling full debugging (verbose) in pandoc will give some hints?

Thank you for your report and sorry for the long wait. Is this still a problem for you? I have not been able to reproduce this issue, even when I use the markdown and command you supplied.

I don't recognize your shell prompt (>), although perhaps you have customized it. I tried your test under a variety of shells and it worked.

Note: pandoc-eqnos 2.2.0 is now released. So, you may wish to test against that.

There is a similar Issue filed against pandoc-tablenos: tomduck/pandoc-tablenos#19

The problem is now fixed. Please upgrade pandoc-xnos to version 2.4.1. Thank you for reporting this Issue. --Tom
