Hello,

I just published a Lua filter for Pandoc that lets you organize a 
document in multiple files in a tree-like fashion, and assemble them later.

You can find it at https://github.com/massifrg/pandoc-include-doc.

The filter supports the inclusion of sub-documents through Div elements, 
whose contents are replaced by the contents (the blocks) of an external 
file imported through pandoc.read().

Those Div elements have a "include-doc" class and must specify the 
source and the format in the "include-src" and "include-format" attributes.

Sub documents inclusion is recursive and the filter detects possible 
circular references in the inclusions' chains.

You could already assemble a list of input files in Pandoc (i.e. see 
--file-scope in the docs), this filter lets you organize your documents 
in a tree-like structure.


Motivation: I wrote this filter because I'm writing a visual editor for 
pandoc types (= documents coded in the internal Pandoc format) based on 
Tiptap/Prosemirror.

Since the editor is browser-based, the size of the documents it can 
handle is much less than the size of the files converted by Pandoc, so 
it makes sense slicing them into smaller units (i.e. chapter, sections, 
etc.)
