A collection of Lua filters for pandoc.

To learn about Lua filters, see the documentation.

Filters are tested against the pandoc version in the latest pandoc/ubuntu Docker image, i.e. usually the latest release. There is no guarantee that filters will work with older versions, but many do.

Some filters depend on external programs, which must be installed separately. Refer to the filters' documentations for detailed requirements.

All filters can be used without special installation, just by passing the respective .lua file path to pandoc via --lua-filter/-L.

User-global installation is possible by placing a filter in within the filters directory of pandoc's user data directory. This allows to use the filters just by using the filename, without having to specify the full file path.

On mac and Linux, the filters can be installed by extracting the archive with

RELEASE_URL=https://github.com/pandoc/lua-filters/releases/latest
curl -LSs $RELEASE_URL/download/lua-filters.tar.gz | \
    tar --strip-components=1 --one-top-level=$PANDOC_DIR -zvxf -

where $PANDOC_DIR is a user directory as listed in the output of pandoc -v.

PRs for improvements, bug fixes, or new filters are welcome. Please see CONTRIBUTING.md for additional information.
