Hi,

when writing Python filters for Pandoc, I can use a Jupyter notebook for 
interactive development: I can parse the document as a JSON and then 
manipulate it: access to elements, print its attributes, try to modify it, 
etc. It's really convenient for tests while developing the filter.

Is there a way to do the same thing with Lua filters?

There are Lua kernels for Jupyter (ex. 
https://github.com/jupyter-xeus/xeus-lua). I would be happy if I could 
parse a document (say in a file with native format as returned by pandoc -t 
native) in Lua and get the result as a Pandoc object 
(https://pandoc.org/lua-filters.html#type-pandoc). Can I do it "easily" ?

Alternatively, how can I develop Lua filters in an interactive way, as with 
Python filters in Jupyter?

Thanks.
