Failed to recognize headers from DevOps wiki missing a leading space

Failed to recognize headers from DevOps wiki missing a leading space

Hi All,

New to pandoc, and trying to use it to create a Word doc that is a dump of 
our DevOps wiki tree.  It's failing to recognize some of the headers as 
headers, because Microsoft didn't follow the standard (*gasp!*) or possibly 
because I'm using the wrong from format?  (I've been using commonmark_x as 
the from format, at the suggestion of the friend who pointed me at pandoc 
in the first place, but I've tried a few others as well to no avail.)

A header like:

# thing1

works fine, but a header like:

#thing2 (without the space)

does not.  I looked at using Lua filters, but it seems too late; pandoc 
isn't reconising it as a header in the first place, as evidenced by 
converting it to native:

[ Header 3 ( "thing1" , [] , [] ) [ Str "thing1" ]
, Para [ Str "stuff" ]
, Para
    [ Str "#thing2"
    , Space
    , Str "(without"
    , Space
    , Str "the"
    , Space
    , Str "space)"
    ]
, Para [ Str "more" , Space , Str "stuff" ]
]

I can just script-bash up something horrible to s/^(#+)(\S.*)$/\1 \2/ 
everything, but who knows what I'd break, or what else I'd miss, and that 
way lies madness.  Hoping there's a cleaner fix?

Thanks for any advice,

    - rob.

Try with

-f markdown-space_in_atx_header

commonmark doesn't allow headings with no space after #, nor does pandoc with its default settings, but you can disable that extension as above.

Thanks; you're a lifesaver.  I needed -blank_before_header as well to get 
the DevOps wiki to parse properly, but once I'd looked 
up space_in_atx_header, that was easy enough to find.
