Yaml object question

Yaml object question

[russurquhart1]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3146 bytes --]

Hi,

You helped me with using a yaml object to set values in a DocBook template 
i created and that worked like a champ.

When i went to try and add another object to the yaml block it didn't seem 
to work. I'm sure i'm missing something but here was what i was trying to 
do:

Here is the markdown text i had:

---
# <!-- Here is the block that contains the required text. -->

title: Demystify DSI I/F

abstract: |
 The purpose of this Application Note (APN) is to demystify the DSI I/F by 
presenting different configuration and their impact on the DSI protocol. 
The document is illustrated by numerous waveforms probe on an OMAP platform.

 This APN covers the DSI protocol in video mode (Non-frame buffer display) 
and in command mode (frame buffer display).

 A section dedicated to debugging tips is enumerating different method to 
measure various parameters and decode LP and HS packets. 

 However the APN does not contain programming model and complete DSI 
protocol standard, for more details on programming model refer to the OMAP 
Technical Reference Manual and the MIPI DSI protocol standard.

  |:-----:|:----:|:-------:|:------:|
  |   1.0  |  November 2012  |    E. Petillon   |    First release

In my DocBook template i have the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<userDoc xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="ti_ud.xsd" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

$include-after$
$endfor$
</GenSection>
$if(revhistory)$
    <RevHistory>
    $revhistory$
    </RevHistory>
$endif$ 
</userDoc>


The abstract and title values all came through, the revhistory did not, and 
also, the xml that was generated, ended BEFORE the </userDoc> element. I 
tried moving the revhistory value around but it would not work, and it 
would always stop the processing/output of the xml at that point.

Have i defined the yaml objecg wrong? Using it wrong?

Any help is really appreciated!

thanks,


Russ

Well, i figured out the issue but it raises another question.

The problem, was that the row of the table contianed colons. Once that line 
had single quotes around it, everything passed through. (Should have looked 
closer at what i was doing.

NOW, the new question is that, this is supposed to be a two row table, 
however it comes across in one para element.

It appears that the ':' character used to control the alignment of the 
column is causing a problem. As i have to quote that line for the ':' to be 
acceptable, that line, with the others is no longer being recognized as a 
table. When i removed the ':' characters from that row, the table comes 
across as a table. For this table, that will work.

Is this a bug, or is it working as designed?

Thanks,

Russ

Re: Yaml object question

[John MacFarlane]

Everything in an indented block started by '|\n' will be treated
as a literal string - so you shouldn't add any quotes inside it.

This works fine and generates a pandoc table:

    % pandoc -t native -s
    ---
     revhistory: |
         Document History


         | Version | Date | Author | Notes |
         |:-----:|:----:|:-------:|:------:|
         |   1.0  |  November 2012  |    E. Petillon   |    First release
    ---

    hi

    ^D
    Pandoc (Meta {unMeta = fromList [("revhistory",MetaBlocks [Para [Str "Document",Space,Str "History"],Table [] [AlignCenter,AlignCenter,AlignCenter,AlignCenter] [0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0] [[Plain [Str "Version"]],[Plain [Str "Date"]],[Plain [Str "Author"]],[Plain [Str "Notes"]]] [[[Plain [Str "1.0"]],[Plain [Str "November",Space,Str "2012"]],[Plain [Str "E.",Space,Str "Petillon"]],[Plain [Str "First",Space,Str "release"]]]]])]})
    [Para [Str "hi"]]


Perhaps your problem has to do with the 'abstract' field -- from your email, it
wasn't clear that you were indenting it properly, but it might just be my
mail reader.  This will not work:

     abstract: |
       The purpose of this Application Note (APN) is to demystify the DSI I/F by
     presenting different configuration and their impact on the DSI protocol.
     The document is illustrated by numerous waveforms probe on an OMAP platform.

Rather, you need:

     abstract: |
       The purpose of this Application Note (APN) is to demystify the DSI I/F by
       presenting different configuration and their impact on the DSI protocol.
       The document is illustrated by numerous waveforms probe on an OMAP platform.

Hope that helps.

You shouldn't need to add quotes in an indented block started
with '|\n'.  All of that will be treated literally.  So, for example,
this works fine and yields a pandoc table:

% pandoc -t native -s
---
 revhistory: |
     Document History


     | Version | Date | Author | Notes |
     |:-----:|:----:|:-------:|:------:|
     |   1.0  |  November 2012  |    E. Petillon   |    First release
---

hi
^D
Pandoc (Meta {unMeta = fromList [("revhistory",MetaBlocks [Para [Str "Document",Space,Str "History"],Table [] [AlignCenter,AlignCenter,AlignCenter,AlignCenter] [0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0] [[Plain [Str "Version"]],[Plain [Str "Date"]],[Plain [Str "Author"]],[Plain [Str "Notes"]]] [[[Plain [Str "1.0"]],[Plain [Str "November",Space,Str "2012"]],[Plain [Str "E.",Space,Str "Petillon"]],[Plain [Str "First",Space,Str "release"]]]]])]})
[Para [Str "hi"]]

Perhaps your indentation wasn't right.  You can indent any amount,
but subsequent lines have to be indented to the level of the first
line.

OK:

   field: |
     content
     content

Bad:

   field: |
     content
   content

Hope that helps.

Re: Yaml object question

[Paul M.]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 8611 bytes --]

String literals in YAML blocks don't seem to be working for LaTeX
documents. Or maybe I'm not understanding the rules correctly (likely!).

Here's a template, `minletter.tex`:

~~~
\documentclass[11pt]{letter}

\address{John Q. Public \\ 1234 Oak  St. \\ Bigtown, CA 91234}
\signature{John Q. Public}

\begin{document}
$if(to)$
\begin{letter}{$to$}
$else$
\begin{letter}{\mbox{}\\\mbox{}}
$endif$

$body$

\closing{Sincerely,}
\end{letter}
\end{document}
~~~

And here's a corresponding markdown document, `nonlit.md`:

~~~
---
to: |
    Bob Jones \\
    1234 Main St.\\
    Small Town, CA 91234 \\
---

Hi Bob!
~~~


The output I get from running `pandoc -t latex -s --template minletter
nonlit.md` is:

~~~
\documentclass[11pt]{letter}

\address{John Q. Public \\ 1234 Oak  St. \\ Bigtown, CA 91234}
\signature{John Q. Public}

\begin{document}
\begin{letter}{Bob Jones \textbackslash{} 1234 Main St.\textbackslash{}
Small Town, CA
91234 \textbackslash{}}

Hi Bob!

\closing{Sincerely,}
\end{letter}
\end{document}
~~~

NOTE: the double backslashes have been replaced.

If I change the double backslashes to "\\n" (single backslash followed by
return) I get the expected output.

Well it is working. I first thought it was tied to me having a space before 
the \n, but that wasn't it.

I had thought that my text was indented properly, but i guess it wasn't. In 
any case it seems to be working now!


Thanks!

Russ

If you want hard line breaks, use a *single* backslash before the
newline.  Otherwise you get an escaped backslash.

Another approach is to use a pandoc line block (this looks nicer):

to: |
    | Bob Jones
    | 1234 Main St.
