loading files from data-dir paths

loading files from data-dir paths

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1320 bytes --]

Hello!

I was trying to avoid setting the same metadata on different files, and I 
read in the manual that yaml metadata are interpreted as markdown if loaded 
with `--metadata-file`, so that would not fly. So I tried to put them my 
customizations in different files for each backend (roughly, TeX and ms, to 
generate PDFs) and load them on the command line as follows

$ pandoc -B 2c.ms -H wideltr.ms -H es.ms --eol=lf -st ms filename.docx | 
groff -e -t -ms -Dutf8 | awk '{print > "filename.ps"}'

This works if *.ms are in the same working directory, but not if I put them 
in the data-dir built-in into pandoc's executable. Where should I put them 
so that I don't have to multiply copies in every working directory? I tried 
the base directory, and the templates subdirectory, of pandoc's data-dir, 
where I have my default.ms template. I'm working on Win10, both personal 
and professional.

Cheers!

Hello!

Excuse me for my insistence, but even in version 1.18 I cannot figure out 
how to make a custom repository of configuration files for groff ms or lua 
filters instead of copying and/or moving them around each working 
directory. Any solution?

Thanks in advance,

Re: loading files from data-dir paths

[Bastien DUMONT]

You can use your local data directory for that: you will find some explanations in the manual under --data-dir. You can create subdirectories in it (e.g. "filters", "templates").

Re: loading files from data-dir paths

[Bastien DUMONT]

Did you try to look at the output `pandoc --version` to know where your data directory is?

Which you will need to create unless it exists already.
