40 use of pandoc . md
The transformation uses Pandoc, in four steps: - read the file into the pandoc structure - extract from the pandoc file all content into a context - convert the context into the target format - fill the context into a template to produce the result (respective a .tex file to process by lualatex) (pdf)

Read Markdown
Reads the YAML header and the text content into a Pandoc
data type. The formating, in the header and the content, is converted
from the input format (e.g. markdown) into the internal Pandoc
encoding.
This first step could read essentially any format, Pandoc accepts - likely with minimal or no changes in other steps.
Extract all information
into Context
Extract the information in the MetaValue type into a
Context MetaValue; preserves the formating in the Pandoc
format, but separated into pieces.
Convert the Data to target format
The Pandoc structured formatted data are converted to the target format (either Latex encoded as Text or HTML encoded as Text) - each individual piece.
Fill the converted pieces into template.
The specific templates for Daino must be compiled and
are then filled with converted pieces - separately to produce the HTML
file to be served and the .tex file to be processed by
lualatex, which produces the final .pdf.
