Attribute lists are represented as associative lists in Lua. Pure
associative lists are awkward to work with. A metatable is attached to
attribute lists, allowing to access and use the associative list as if
the attributes were stored in as normal key-value pair in table.
Note that this changes the way `pairs` works on attribute lists. Instead
of producing integer keys and two-element tables, the resulting iterator
function now returns the key and value of those pairs. Use `ipairs` to
get the old behavior.
Warning: the new iteration mechanism only works if pandoc has been
compiled with Lua 5.2 or later (current default: 5.3).
The `pandoc.Attr` function is altered to allow passing attributes as
key-values in a normal table. This is more convenient than having to
construct the associative list which is used internally.
Closes#4071
The `text` module is preloaded in lua. The module contains some UTF-8
aware string functions, implemented in Haskell. The module is loaded on
request only, e.g.:
text = require 'text'
function Str (s)
s.text = text.upper(s.text)
return s
end
This fixes a bug where pandoc would stop parsing a URI with an
empty attribute: for example, `&a=&b=` wolud stop at `a`.
(The uri parser tries to guess which punctuation characters
are part of the URI and which might be punctuation after it.)
Closes#4068.
Previously we got a crash, because we were trying to print
a native cmark STRIKETHROUGH node, and the commonmark writer
in cmark-github doesn't support this. Work around this by
using a raw node to add the strikethrough delimiters.
Closes#4038.
* Move as much as possible to the CSS in the template.
* Ensure that all the HTML-based templates (including epub)
contain the CSS for columns.
* Columns default to 50% width unless they are given a width
attribute.
Closes#4028.
The line identifiers are built using the code block's identifier
as a prefix. If the code block has null identifier, we use
"cb1", "cb2", etc.
Closes#4031.
* Remove "width" attribute which is not allowed on div.
* Remove space between `<div class="column">` elements,
since this prevents columns whose widths sum to 100%
(the space takes up space).
Closes#4028.
