Re: [NTG-context] Typesetting Markdown – Part 5: Interpolation
Thank you. I still don't really understand why can't you have a "presentational" yaml file and a "content" yaml file (I do it like that... I have a "variables.yaml" file for content and a "settings.yaml" file for presentational stuff, and use a "template.context" file with all my mapped variables within the ConTeXt code, and compile everything using pandoc). But I guess you want to do it this way. Or maybe I'm not really understanding your process. It's quite interesting in any case, and I'm learning a lot. Thanks for sharing.

Re: [NTG-context] Typesetting Markdown – Part 5: Interpolation
That's another intriguing approach, Andrés, thank you. The approach faces some hurdles. First, the template file (main.tex) is written in ConTeXt, so it never sees the YAML variables, nor can it be used to interpret pandoc's conditional expressions. Second, moving the \completecontent macro out of main.tex and into Markdown (e.g., 01.md, being the first chapter) so that the conditional expression can be evaluated using pandoc mixes content with presentation logic. Modes are a good approach in this case because the "context" command can take a "mode" command-line argument. This provides presentation controls that neither the YAML nor the Markdown need consider. Adding presentation logic to the ConTeXt template (i.e., introducing \startmode and \startnotmode into main.tex) is acceptable because ConTeXt is wholly responsible for the appearance of the final document. See: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modes This then allows development of command-line arguments from shell scripts to control how the document is presented when built, which is a little bit more flexible than maintaining YAML variables. Also, ideally, the YAML variables would be used for controlling only content, not presentation logic. Thanks again, Andrés.

Re: [NTG-context] Typesetting Markdown – Part 5: Interpolation
You can do it on the template... you can use a yaml variable to determine if the toc should be printed or not. Like so: yaml file: --- toc: true ... template file: %%% $if(toc)$ \completecontent $endif$ %%% Andrés Conrado Montoya http://chiquitico.org El lun., 8 jul. 2019 a las 2:52, escribió: > Send ntg-context mailing list submissions to > ntg-context@ntg.nl > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > ntg-context-requ...@ntg.nl > > You can reach the person managing the list at > ntg-context-ow...@ntg.nl > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ntg-context digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > >1.

Re: [NTG-context] Typesetting Markdown – Part 5: Interpolation
Thanks again for the great ideas. The downside is that it comes with a lot
of extra ConTeXt setup code. My understanding is that the toc parameter to
pandoc only works when creating a standalone document. I think
\def\completecontent\empty is a bit more expressive of intent than
\def\completecontent{}. Modes are probably the way to go, though.
Thank you.

Thank you Aditya. The main.tex file is meant to be reusable for different document styles. By removing \completecontent altogether from the main template, it would preclude a different document from reusing the main.tex template with a table of contents. I'd like the template to be "reusable"; making modifications to "main.tex" --- or creating a copy --- would subvert that goal.
