eshinn / node-pandoc Goto Github PK

Hi, thank you for building this great module! It runs just fine through electron, but after I package the app with electron-builder or electron-packager, trying to use Pandoc in the app gives me the following error:

Uncaught Exception:
Error: spawn pandoc ENOENT

I'm an Electron and Node novice, but from what I've read it appears that this means the app can't find Pandoc. Some command line tests:

> which pandoc
/usr/local/bin/pandoc
> pandoc -v
pandoc 2.5
Compiled with pandoc-types 1.17.5.4, texmath 0.11.1.2, skylighting 0.7.4
> echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin: ...

I want to convert docx to html5 with media.
This is my code

When i run app, it has error:

How to fix it?
Thank you!

I need to use the option --epub-cover-image, so when I use it on the CLI it works good, with the following combinations

--epub-cover-image
--epub-cover-image=
--epub-cover-image ''
--epub-cover-image=''

But passing the same path to nodePandoc like this

nodePandoc(content, -f html -t epub -o ${outputPath} --epub-cover-image=/Users/myUser/Library/Application Support/Electron/images/e603202a-8d25-4ac8-84ef-04ff001feea1.png, (err, result) => {

I always get an error: openFile does not exists (No such file or director).

hi, thanks for the module.

Situation

• Using a docx with images.
• Using "--extract-media=", "." in the args array to extract the images in the docx document

Error thrown:
Oh No: Error: pandoc: .: openBinaryFile: permission denied (Permission denied)

Expected behavior
Should create a folder called "media" in current directory and extract the images there
Works fine in command line with pandoc.

Solution with problems
It works with args as string... but using string causes problems with spaces and slashes in -o
So this solution doesn't work with batch files having spaces in output.

Environment
Windows 11
pandoc 2.18
node-pandoc 0.3.0
node 16.13.1

Hope you can give me a hint.

see stack overflow question

But i want to be able assign the return result to a variable then send that to the front end. But the variable comes up as undefined. Any help?

var nodePandoc = require('node-pandoc');
var src, args;
var file = ''; 

src = 'Lesson.docx';
args = '-f docx -t markdown -o ./Lesson.md';

callback = function (err, result) {
  if (err) return console.error('Oh No: ',err);
  console.log("callback result:",result);
  file = result
};

nodePandoc(src, args, callback);
console.log(file);

Hi,

I'm currently running pandoc manually through command line to create a pdf from a multitude of .md files. To automate the process, I was hoping I could use this tool. Unfortunately, it appears that only single files are allowed??? This is odd because pandoc handles it seamlessly.

If I am missing something and there is a way to pass in many markdown files as source please let me know.

Thanks!

Hello thank you for this plugin!

I want to add content in a loop to output pandoc file.

With following args '-f markdown -t html >> ./test.html'; I get Error: pandoc: >>: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory).

I think >> is not supported.

Thanks for your help,
Matthias

I get some uncaught errors like:

Uncaught Error: write EPIPE
Uncaught Error: spawn pandoc ENOENT

But it is impossible to catch inside the nodePandoc callback (or outside). I want to give a user some alert that pandoc is not installed.

Thanks.
