Description:
  Convert a Markdown file to report.

Usage:
  pyppl report --in <LIST> [OPTIONS]

Required options:
  -i, --in <LIST>           - The input file.

Optional options:
  -o, --out <AUTO>          - The output file. Default: <in>.html
  -n, --nonstand [BOOL]     - Non-standalone mode. Save static files in  <filename of --out>.files  separately. \

  -h, -H, --help            - Show help message and exit.

Extra data for rendering

You can generate a toml file named job.report.data.toml under <job.outdir> with extra data to render the report template. Beyond that, proc attributes and args can also be used.

For example: job.report.data.toml:

description = 'A awesome report for job 1'

Then in your template, you can use it:

## {{jobs[0].description}}

Built-in templates

Check them to see features those templates support:

• Layui
• Bootstrip
• Semantic

How does it work?

Following figure demonstrates how the plugin works:

Each process that you want to report, will need to have a template assigned with pXXX.config.report_template. Like scripts, you may prefice it with file:, and then followed by an absolute path to the template or a relative one to where it's assigned. You may even assign a template using a direct string. A process with no template assign will be hidden from the report.

You can use the data from the jobs or the process to render the template.

The report for each process will then be assembled by the plugin, and converted using pandoc with a default template and some built-in filters. Finally, your report will be a standalone html file.

For larget reports, non-standaone reports are recommended: .report(standalone=False, ...)

Environments

You may pass values to process envs to control report content:

pXXX.config.report_envs.foo = "bar"

Then in you can use it in the report template:

pXXX.config.report_template = """
The value of foo is "{{foo}}".
"""

Preserved envs variables

We have 4 preserved variables under pXXX.envs:

# Control the level of headings in the
pXXX.config.report_envs.level = 1
# Content to add before the template
pXXX.config.report_envs.pre = ''
# Content to add after the template
pXXX.config.report_envs.post = ''
# The title of the process report
pXXX.config.report_envs.title = None

Process report levels

No matter at which level you want to put this process report in the entire report, you need to each heading from level 1, then according to pXXX.config.report_envs.level, the headings will be shifted to corresponding level. For example, with pXXX.config.report_envs.level = 2, following template

# Section
## Subsection
content

will be rendered into:

## Section
### Subsection
content

It will not affect comments in code blocks such as:

```
## some comments
```

Adding extra contents to process report

You may add extra contents to the process report. For example, if you put the process report at level 2, then you probably need a level-1 heading. For previous example, if you have pXXX.config.report_envs.level = 2, without a level-2 heading, the entire report will look like:

## Section
### Subsection
content

Then you missed a level-1 heading, which will make your report look wired. Here you can specify a level-1 heading with pXXX.config.report_envs.pre = '# I am H1':

# I am H2
## Section
### Subsection
content

You may also append something to the process report with pXXX.config.report_envs.post

Headings added by pre and post will NOT be adjusted by pXXX.config.report_envs.level

Title of the process report

By default, if not assigned or assigned with None, the process description will be used as the title of the process report. Of course you can overwrite it with pXXX.config.report_envs.title.

# by default
pXXX = Proc(desc = 'Some analysis')
# ... other necessary settings
pXXX.report = '# {{report.title}}'

will be rendered as:

# Some analysis

with pXXX.config.report_envs.title = 'An amazing analysis', we will have:

# An amazing analysis

Making your report flexiable

You can interpolate some variables in the templates to make your report flexiable. For example, you may want to hide an image in some cases:

# {{report title}}

I have enough details.

{% if report.get('showimage') %}
![Image](./path/to/image)
{% endif %}

Then you can show that image in the report only when you have pXXX.config.report_envs.showimage = True.
