gulp-pandoc-writer

gulp plugin that generates static files using pandoc.

Ported directly from gulp-pandoc-pdf, just changed to work with more file formats (gulp-pandoc-pdf only produces PDF files).

Installation

npm install gulp-pandoc-writer --save-dev 

Usage

var pandocWriter = require('gulp-pandoc-writer');

gulp.task('build', function() {
    gulp.src('src/markdown/**/*.md')
        .pipe(pandocWriter({
			outputDir: 'dist/docx',
			inputFileType:'.md',
			outputFileType: '.docx',
			args: [
				'--smart'
			]
        })) 
        .pipe(gulp.dest('build/html'));
});
