Hello,

I just uploaded a module for ConTeXt to typeset Pandoc JSON files (as XML) with ConTeXt.

You can find it here:

https://github.com/massifrg/t-pandocxml

I made a script to create a t-pandocxml-YYYY-MM-DD.zip file (see the devhelpers directory).

But I don't know how to install it, starting from the zip file.

This is what I did:

- cd [context_installation_dir]/tex/texmf-context

- unzip .../t-pandocxml-YYYY-MM-DD.zip

- rm LICENSE README.md VERSION

- mtxrun --generate

It works, but I'm sure there's a better way to install it.

Hi Massi,

the scripts of https://modules.contextgarden.net/ accept a git repository like yours and create the zip themselves. See https://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_and_Lua_programming/ Module_writing#Publication_and_maintenance

It’s installable via "mtxrun --script install-modules" after I added it manually to the list of modules for the distribution.

So is there no way to install it locally from a zip file, at least for testing purposes, before making it installable from the garden? Massi

Of course there is! Just unzip it in one of your texmf trees. ~/texmf is good for testing, it shouldn’t even be necessary to regenerate the database.

E.g. I have symlinks to my module repositories in ~/texmf/tex/context/ third/

Thank you, I did not know ConTeXt looked into ~/texmf. Massi
