From my labelled-lists filter
(https://github.com/dialoa/dialectica-filters/blob/main/labelled-lists/labelled-lists.lua),
here is a filter + function that checks whether every item in a bullet list
starts with a Span element.
```lua
--- is_custom_labelled_list: Look for custom labels markup
-- Custom label markup requires each item starting with a span
-- containing the label
-- @param element pandoc BulletList element
function is_custom_labelled_list (element)
local is_cl_list = true
-- the content of BulletList is a List of List of Blocks
for _,blocks in ipairs(element.c) do
-- check that the first element of the first block is Span
if not( blocks[1].c[1].t == 'Span' ) then
is_cl_list = false
break
end
end
return is_cl_list
end
return {{
BulletList = function(element)
if is_custom_labelled_list(element) then
return pandoc.Para(pandoc.Str('Was a list of the required kind!)))
end
end, }}
```
The difficulty with manipulating lists is to follow their intricate
structure: a BulletList element as a content (element.c) that is a pandoc
List. Each item in it (element.c[1], element.c[2]) is of Blocks type, i.e.
a pandoc.List where the each element is a block. In your case you should
check that the list item only contains one block of type ordered list:
if #elem.c[i] == 1 then list_item_contains_one_block_only = true end
and check that this block is of type OrderedList:
if #elem.c[i]==1 and elem.c[i].t == 'OrderedList' then ...
you should then add that block to the previous item, and remove the current
item.
Hope this helps,
J
