*filter_pandoc_run_py* is a [pandoc] filter for execute python codes written in `CodeBlocks` or inline `Code`. It receives the print statement output and place it to the markdown converted file. Also, it save any created pyplot figure to a folder and include it as an image. Code has to be **trusted**

[pandoc]: http://pandoc.org/

## Usage

To apply the filter, use the following option with pandoc:

pandoc INPUT_FILE -F filter_pandoc_run_py --to OUTPUT_FORMAT -o OUTPUT_FILE

Example:

pandoc ./tests/test.md -F filter_pandoc_run_py -t gfm -o test_converted.md

- You can convert it to any pandoc supported format;
- When converted to a markdown format it can change some part of the text to conform with the default style (e.g. changing setext-style headers to ATX headers).

## Installation

*filter_pandoc_run_py* requires [python] (tested in version > 3.0)

Install *filter_pandoc_run_py* as root using the bash command

git clone URL
cd dir
pip install .

Or get it from PYPI:

pip install filter_pandoc_run_py


## How to Use It

Create a regular markdown code but appending a class .run to it.

### For `CodeBlock`

Output print statement as a BlockQuote or paragraph. You can hide the generation code.

Syntax: `{.python .run format=[blockquote (default), text] hide_code=[False (default), True] }`

The following syntax is also support for enabling standard IDE code highlight:

```python
#filter: {.run format=[blockquote (default), text] hide_code=[False (default), True] }
.... code ....
```

"Pretty print" enable: output of print statement is converted and is rendered

### For `Code`

Output print statement as inline text.

The syntax is:

`print(code)`{.run}

"Pretty print" enable: output of print statement is converted and is rendered

## Example

From a markdown file such as:

```{.python .run}
d = 1e3
m = 2 * d
print('The total mass is {:.2f} $m^3$'.format(m))
```

`pandoc FILE --to markdown -F filter_pandoc_run_py.py -o OUTFILE.md`

```{.markdown}
> Output:
>
> > The total mass is 2000.00 $m^3$
```
