The new Opt module has only a few dependencies. This is important for
compile-times during development, as Template Haskell containing modules
are be recompiled whenever a (transitive) dependency changes.
Disabling the flag will cause derivation of ToJSON and FromJSON
instances via GHC Generics instead of Template Haskell. The flag is
enabled by default, as deriving via Generics can be slow (see #4083).
* Lua: allow access to pandoc state
Lua filters and custom writers now have read-only access to most fields
of pandoc's internal state via the global variable `PANDOC_STATE`.
* Lua: allow iterating through fields of PANDOC_STATE
* Lua filters doc: describe CommonState
* Lua filters doc: mention global variable PANDOC_STATE
* Lua: add access to logs
Log messages can currently only be printed, but not decomposed.
(unexported module). These are used in both the man and ms
writers.
Moved groffEscape out of Text.Pandoc.Writers.Shared [cancels earlier
API change from adding it, which was after last release].
This fixes strong/code combination on man (should be `\f[CB]` not
`\f[BC]`), mentioned in #4973.
Updated tests.
Closes#4975.
A proper Lua traceback is added if either loading of a file or execution
of a filter function fails. This should be of help to authors of Lua
filters who need to debug their code.
Now the `write*` functions for Docbook, HTML, ICML, JATS,
Man, Ms, OPML are sensitive to `writerPreferAscii`. Previously
the to-ascii translation was done in Text.Pandoc.App, and
thus not available to those using the writer functions
directly.
In addition, the LaTeX writer is now sensitive to
`writerPreferAscii` and to `--ascii`. 100% ASCII
output can't be guaranteed, but the writer will use
commands like `\"{a}` and `\l` whenever possible,
to avoid emiting a non-ASCII character.
A new unexported module, Text.Pandoc.Groff, has been
added to store functions used in the different groff-based
writers.
This collects some of the general-purpose code from the LaTeX
reader, with the aim of making the module smaller. (We've been
having out-of-memory issues compiling this module on CI.)
