markdown2pdf's Introduction

Markdown2PDF

Markdown2pdf is a command-line tool to convert markdown file into pdf, was originally designed for myself to create resume.

Installation

To install Markdown2PDF you may need to install PDF convertion tool first,

Install Markdown2PDF by pip:

pip install markdown2pdf

Usage

You can use Markdown2PDF via simple command md2pdf:

md2pdf resume.md

You can also appoint a theme by argument --theme:

md2pdf resume.md --theme=github

Or, you can even using your self defined theme:

md2pdf resume.md --theme=path_to_style.css

By now, Markdown2PDF contains multi builtin themes:

github (from GitHub.Inc)
solarized-dark (from mixu/markdown-styles)
ghostwriter (from mixu/markdown-styles)

Trouble shooting

ffi.h no such file or directory

apt-get install libffi-dev

OSError: library not found: 'libcairo.so.2'

This means you need to get some requirements installed first, see this page: [WeasyPrint fails with error on OSX](Kozea/WeasyPrint#79).

Convert error in some case

Work on ubuntu16.04.python2.7, markdown2pdf install pip install markdown2pdf.
Covert markdown script md2pdf test.md

## title1

### title2
test statement.
* first point
  + aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  + bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
* second point
  + ccccccccccccccccccccccccc
  + ddddddddddddddddddddddddd
  + fffffffffffffffffffffffff

and get

Then remove test statement. from the script,conversion is correct.
Is there something wrong?

Deprecated?

The main page says

[Deprecated] A command line tool to convert markdown file to pdf.

Is this tool no longer supported? Is there a recommended replacement?

themes are not included in python package

installing package via pip

github.css etc. are not included in package. So specifying github theme (for example) fails, not finding the css file.

SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print(css_file)

I just got the following error when use the markdown2pdf.

It' seems the pypi version is an old version.

I think I fixed a tiny pip install bug

With no cffi in requirements.txt, just starting markdown2pdf installation with pip install,

these error will arise, like

        replace_conflicting=replace_conflicting
      File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 1060, in best_match

    ----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-f8j_a507/cairocffi/

merging it helps, I think ~

Script fails

There are no paentheses in init.py file, line 20:
print css_file
I use Python3 and downloaded package using pip3 as well

I would love to use this lib on the project I'm working on right now with my company, but I can only do so if the code is properly licensed. Can you please add a license file to your project? Here is an example.

Thanks.

"Command python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in...

Encountering an issue when using "pip install markdown2pdf" in that I receive the error "Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/3d/s2kz5njn5713qqz7l5wh1mnr0000gp/T/pip-build-VgE7ie/cairocffi/." I searched all over the place, but I cannot find a solution. Just looking for some feedback as to what the problem could be. I have also attached a screenshot of the console so that you can see the error as well. Thanks in advance!
