Subject: Passing and retrieveing a variable
Date: Wed, 05 Jan 2011 20:22:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.voun4li98lgizc@lk-2008-nbk> (raw)
Hello,
I'd need to pass a variable to Ctx and to retrieve it inside a compiled document - via Ctx itself and also by Lua. Something like modes; but modes allow just to check whether they are on or off. I'd need something like this:
Calling context.exe:
---
call context.exe test.mkiv --mode:MyMode --variable MyVariable=AAA
---
And test.mkiv:
---
\starttext
Hello
\doifmode{MyMode}{Being in MyMode}
\ifvariableequal{MyVariable}{AAA}{MyVariable is \MyVariable} % Something like this
\startluacode
if context.variables.MyVariable == "AAA" then
context("MyVariable is defined.") -- Something like this
end
\stopluacode
\stoptext
---
Simply said, I'd need to provide a conditional (or: dependent) compilation of the input file.
How to handle this?
Best regards,
Lukas
