Adding title, author and date information in non-standalone mode

Adding title, author and date information in non-standalone mode

Hi,

I would like to know if there is any way to add the title, author, and date 
information in the resulting HTML5 document when converting from Pandoc 
Markdown. I know that this is done in cases where standalone is specified 
but how would it be done if standalone was non specified.

I would like to avoid having to add the rendered HTML into the Markdown as 
a manual step as I would prefer Pandoc to handle all Markdown to HTML5 
conversion.

I am asking this question in relation to a plugin I am writing for the 
Pelican static site generator.

I look forward to your suggestions.
Nanda

You could write your own template and pass it to pandoc with
`--template`. Example template:

    <h1>$title$</h1>
    $body$

This will produce the usual output with the title added above.

Alternatively, use a [JSON-based filter][filter] or [Lua filter].

[Lua filter]: https://pandoc.org/lua-filters.html

Hi Albert,

Thank you.

I think the template option seems to be the most straightforward to me for
my use case.

However, filters might be of use to me as my plugin evolves to handle more
complex cases.

Cheers,
Nanda
