Subject: Use of YAML metadata block
Date: Sat, 9 Apr 2016 19:37:17 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57090C95.6050607@gmail.com> (raw)
I am a little unsure of the boundaries of what a YAML metadata block can
contain in order for it to be correctly interpreted as a command line
option.
While there is a certain allure to having all compile-time options
sitting in a metadata block in the document itself to make it
self-contained, Pandoc's versatility in format support makes this
difficult to achieve.
My understanding is that key-value options to --variable and --metadata
can be included in a YAML metadata block, but not standard command line
options like --bibliography or --filter or --highlight-style (with
title, author, date being exceptions.)
Is this correct?
Because this is a dynamic and evolving area, can someone point me to the
definitive single source that documents current behaviour so that I
might get some clarity, please.
Thanks.
Chandra
