Pandoc PHP Package

If you need to convert text files from one format to another, pandoc is your swiss-army knife. This package is a PHP wrapper for pandoc.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require ueberdosis/pandoc

This package is a wrapper for the command-line tool pandoc. Don’t forget to install pandoc. Here is an example for Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y wget
sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/pandoc
cd /usr/src/pandoc
sudo wget https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases/download/2.15/pandoc-2.15-1-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i pandoc-2.15-1-amd64.deb

More examples are available in the pandoc documentation

Usage

Return the converted text as string

$output = (new \Pandoc\Pandoc)
    ->from('markdown')
    ->input('# Test')
    ->to('html')
    ->run();

Use a file as input and write a file as output

(new \Pandoc\Pandoc)
    ->from('markdown')
    ->inputFile('tests/data/example.md')
    ->to('plain')
    ->output('tests/temp/example.txt')
    ->run();

Change path to Pandoc

new \Pandoc\Pandoc([
    'command' => '/usr/local/bin/pandoc',
]);

Change working directory

(new \Pandoc\Pandoc)->cwd('/tmp/pandoc/');

List available input formats

(new \Pandoc\Pandoc)->listInputFormats();

List available output formats

(new \Pandoc\Pandoc)->listOutputFormats();

Write a log file

echo (new \Pandoc\Pandoc)
    ->from('markdown')
    ->input('# Markdown')
    ->to('html')
    ->log('log.txt')
    ->run();

Retrieve Pandoc version

echo (new \Pandoc\Pandoc)->version();

Use magic methods to make calls shorter

$output = (new \Pandoc\Pandoc)
    ->fromMarkdown('# Test')
    ->toHtml('tests/temp/example.txt')
    ->run();

Pass options to Pandoc

echo (new \Pandoc\Pandoc)
    ->fromMarkdown('# Test')
    ->toHtml('tests/temp/example.txt')
    ->option('fail-if-warnings')
    ->option('data-dir', './tmp')
    ->run();

See https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html for a full list of available options

Laravel Facade

This package includes a Laravel facade for people that like that little bit of syntactic sugar.

echo \Pandoc\Facades\Pandoc::version();
