mdtex-cli v0.0.3

mdtex-cli

Markdown equations as a command line script

Introduction

This is a convenience wrapper for gulp-markdown-equations. That packages requires a custom gulpfile in your project with all oft he custom setup. That's nice, but it's a pain. This project takes a simple workflow and wraps it in a cli utility. The result is:

Installation

$ npm install -g mdtex-cli

Examples

Process all files matching *.mdtex in the current directory, outputting them as *.md and equations into ./images:

$ mdtex

Process a specific file:

$ mdtex README.mdtex --output README.md --imageDir ./image-files

Requirements

You will need the following commands accessible in your PATH variable in order to use this utility:

• pdflatex
• convert (optional for trimming, part of the ImageMagick suite)
• pdftocairo (part of the Poppler package)

Usage

$ mdtex --help

  Usage: cli [options] <file ...>

  Options:

    -h, --help                   output usage information
    -V, --version                output the version number
    -i, --input <file>           input file
    -o, --output <file>          output file destination
    -d, --imageDirectory <path>  image output destination
