Description

Utility functions and definitions used by the various Pandoc modules.

Synopsis

List processing

splitBy :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [[a]]Source

Split list by groups of one or more sep.

splitByIndices :: [Int] -> [a] -> [[a]]Source

splitStringByIndices :: [Int] -> [Char] -> [[Char]]Source

Split string into chunks divided at specified indices.

substitute :: Eq a => [a] -> [a] -> [a] -> [a]Source

Replace each occurrence of one sublist in a list with another.

Text processing

backslashEscapesSource

Arguments

:: [Char]

list of special characters to escape

-> [(Char, String)] 

Returns an association list of backslash escapes for the designated characters.

escapeStringUsing :: [(Char, String)] -> String -> StringSource

Escape a string of characters, using an association list of characters and strings.

stripTrailingNewlines :: String -> StringSource

Strip trailing newlines from string.

trim :: String -> StringSource

Remove leading and trailing space (including newlines) from string.

triml :: String -> StringSource

Remove leading space (including newlines) from string.

trimr :: String -> StringSource

Remove trailing space (including newlines) from string.

stripFirstAndLast :: String -> StringSource

Strip leading and trailing characters from string

camelCaseToHyphenated :: String -> StringSource

Change CamelCase word to hyphenated lowercase (e.g., camel-case).

toRomanNumeral :: Int -> StringSource

Convert number < 4000 to uppercase roman numeral.

escapeURI :: String -> StringSource

Escape whitespace in URI.

tabFilterSource

Arguments

:: Int

Tab stop

-> String

Input

-> String 

Convert tabs to spaces and filter out DOS line endings. Tabs will be preserved if tab stop is set to 0.

Date/time

normalizeDate :: String -> Maybe StringSource

Parse a date and convert (if possible) to YYYY-MM-DD format.

Pandoc block and inline list processing

orderedListMarkers :: (Int, ListNumberStyle, ListNumberDelim) -> [String]Source

Generate infinite lazy list of markers for an ordered list, depending on list attributes.

normalizeSpaces :: [Inline] -> [Inline]Source

Normalize a list of inline elements: remove leading and trailing Space elements, collapse double Spaces into singles, and remove empty Str elements.

normalize :: (Eq a, Data a) => a -> aSource

Normalize Pandoc document, consolidating doubled Spaces, combining adjacent Strs and Emphs, remove Nulls and empty elements, etc.

stringify :: Walkable Inline a => a -> StringSource

Convert pandoc structure to a string with formatting removed. Footnotes are skipped (since we don't want their contents in link labels).

compactifySource

Arguments

:: [[Block]]

List of list items (each a list of blocks)

-> [[Block]] 

Change final list item from Para to Plain if the list contains no other Para blocks.

compactify'Source

Arguments

:: [Blocks]

List of list items (each a list of blocks)

-> [Blocks] 

Change final list item from Para to Plain if the list contains no other Para blocks. Like compactify, but operates on Blocks rather than [Block].

data Element Source

Data structure for defining hierarchical Pandoc documents

Constructors

Blk Block 
Sec Int [Int] Attr [Inline] [Element] 

hierarchicalize :: [Block] -> [Element]Source

Convert list of Pandoc blocks into (hierarchical) list of Elements

uniqueIdent :: [Inline] -> [String] -> StringSource

Generate a unique identifier from a list of inlines. Second argument is a list of already used identifiers.

isHeaderBlock :: Block -> BoolSource

True if block is a Header block.

headerShift :: Int -> Pandoc -> PandocSource

Shift header levels up or down.

isTightList :: [[Block]] -> BoolSource

Detect if a list is tight.

addMetaField :: ToMetaValue a => String -> a -> Meta -> MetaSource

Set a field of a Meta object. If the field already has a value, convert it into a list with the new value appended to the old value(s).

makeMeta :: [Inline] -> [[Inline]] -> [Inline] -> MetaSource

Create Meta from old-style title, authors, date. This is provided to ease the transition from the old API.

TagSoup HTML handling

renderTags' :: [Tag String] -> StringSource

Render HTML tags.

File handling

inDirectory :: FilePath -> IO a -> IO aSource

Perform an IO action in a directory, returning to starting directory.

readDataFile :: Maybe FilePath -> FilePath -> IO ByteStringSource

Read file from specified user data directory or, if not found there, from Cabal data directory.

readDataFileUTF8 :: Maybe FilePath -> FilePath -> IO StringSource

Same as readDataFile but returns a String instead of a ByteString.

fetchItem :: Maybe String -> String -> IO (Either SomeException (ByteString, Maybe String))Source

Fetch an image or other item from the local filesystem or the net. Returns raw content and maybe mime type.

openURL :: String -> IO (Either SomeException (ByteString, Maybe String))Source

Read from a URL and return raw data and maybe mime type.

Error handling

err :: Int -> String -> IO aSource

Safe read

safeRead :: (Monad m, Read a) => String -> m aSource
