Hi John --

I am finally getting back to try writing such a filter. I am opting to use the python pandocfilters package to intercept this with toJSONFilter. But I don't seem to be getting it.

I think I have it close but don't know how to handle the lines in the metadata include-after before the start of the reference header.

But when I run pandoc with the filter, I get pandoc: The key "MetaList" was not found

How should I be handling the metadata lines in the jsonfilter? How do I prepend this before the reference Header object?

Thanks!

from pandocfilters import toJSONFilter, RawBlock, Header

import sys

def latex(x):

return RawBlock('latex', x)

def references_includeafter(key, value, format, meta):

if key == 'Header':

[level, [ident, _, _], content] = value

if ident == "references":

if format == "latex":

# insert include-after lines before start of reference header

includeafter = meta.get('include-after', {})

print >> sys.stderr, str(includeafter)

return includeafter

if __name__ == "__main__":

toJSONFilter(references_includeafter)
