Python wrapper for Pandoc - the universal document converter

Project description

Pyandoc is a simple Python wrapper for the excellent pandoc utility. It allows you to convert the format of text documents by interacting with a Document object’s attributes. Each supported format is available as a property, and can either read from or written to.

Requirements

  • Pandoc

Usage

Get setup.

doc = pandoc.Document()
doc.markdown = '''
# I am an H1 Tag

Now let’s convert that into a ReST document:
