Is there a way to make pandoc
output fenced code blocks (i.e. using triple backticks) when outputting markdown, rather than indenting with four spaces?
One can use a Lua filter to "manually" create the block output:
local fenced = '```\n%s\n```\n'
function CodeBlock (cb)
-- use pandoc's default behavior if the block has classes or attribs
if cb.classes[1] or cb.attributes[1] then
return nil
end
return pandoc.RawBlock('markdown', fenced:format(cb.text))
end
Save the above to a file, then pass the file to pandoc via the --lua-filter
option.
