Hello everyone,
I am from Montreal and have been a big fan of dokuwiki and all the
neat plugins for a long time.
I am also a big fan of the latex typesetting language (because of
\ref, \pageref and the math).
I was wondering if you think it is possible to overload the mapping
ns1:ns2:page --> data/pages/ns1/ns2/page.txt
to also look for a data/pages/ns1/ns2/page.tex
and if so run an alternative Parsing routine to get the HTML?
The .tex to .html conversion I am thinking about two options.
Option 1: .tex --> NewParser --> html
How difficult would it be to reuse the DokuWiki parser but program
higher "priority" rules for parsing simple .tex syntax and commands ?
Option 2: .tex --> pandoc --> dokuwiki .txt --> DokuParser --> html
Does it make sense to call an external program to convert to
dokuwiki syntax as intermediate representation?
Is calling an external program a security nightmare?
The reason why want to do this is that I am working on a math textbook
(so I prefer to keep the source code TeX based), but I would prefer
to keep around individual snippets of content edited with dokuwiki.
Has anyone played around with alternate parsers,
different input or output formats but reusing all the dokuwiki UI ?
Ivan
PS: If you want to try pandoc you can check out my work in progress:
