Pandoc and dynamically generated JavaScript URLs

Pandoc and dynamically generated JavaScript URLs

[Joaquin Garcia]

I am working in RStudio and changed from using knit2html to
rmarkdown::render to render an RMD file which generates some plots using
GoogleVis. The issue is that the .MD file contains the proper link to the
script URL but Pandoc is pasting the script contents into the URL, because
the file is self-contained.

Currently in .MD file (should stay):

<script type="text/javascript" src="foo"></script>

What Pandoc produces:

<script type="text/javascript" src="contents_of_foo"></script>

How do I stop this from happening?

One workaround would be to place some placeholder which doesn't point at
the actual script in the src attribute value. Maybe it would work to have
it point to a file containing the path to the actual script and thus get
the path to the actual script inserted. Say the actual script is at
script/foo.js. Rather than putting `src="script/foo.js"` in your source you
put `src="dummy/foo.js"` and the file dummy/foo.js contains the text
"script/foo.js". Might work.

Why is the generated file self-contained?

If pandoc is used with the --self-contained option, that's
what it will do -- make the HTML self-contained, so it depends
on no other resources.

However, you can disable this in an element (such as a script
tag) by adding the attribute data-external="1".
