Pandoc Markdown to Latex - different table styles

Pandoc Markdown to Latex - different table styles

Hi,

Does anyone have an idea how to achieve different table styles (e.g. border 
colors) when converting Markdown to Latex?
Can it be done with some identifier to apply a style? I am brand new to 
pandoc, but the potential of it looks really great.

For example:

This one needs red border
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |
|----------|----------|----------|
| a        | b        | c        |
| d        | e        | f        |


The one needs blue border
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |
|----------|----------|----------|
| a        | b        | c        |
| d        | e        | f        |


Like to hear any thought on how to achieve this.

Thanks in advance

Joeri

There's no easy way to do this, unfortunately.
If you just want to put a border around the whole
table, it might work to put it into a LaTeX
`\fcolorbox` command.

See https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Colors

You could test that in LaTeX, and when you get
the LaTeX that you want, you could write a lua
filter that inserts the fcolorbox around a
table if the table in in a div with a certain
attribute.  Then you could write something like

::: blueborder
|your|table|here|
|----|-----|----|
:::

and the lua filter would do the work.
