Waxseal Action
v1.0.3
Latest version
Waxseal is a GitHub Action you can use to compile Markdown documents with Pandoc. Add your Markdown documents to an input directory, then let Waxseal put it through your TeX/Pandoc template for that extra bit of shine.
Configure your GitHub Actions workflow using something like this:
# This is a basic workflow to help you get started with Actions
name: CI
on: [push]
jobs:
waxseal_job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: Waxseal
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
# Make sure the actual branch is checked out when running on pull requests
ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}
- name: Waxseal it
uses: boardfish/[email protected]
id: waxseal
with:
input_directory: 'in' # Takes .md files from ./in...
output_directory: 'out' # ...and compiles them to PDFs in ./out...
template_file: 'template.tex' # ...using the template at template.tex.Now, whenever you add or change a Markdown file in the in directory, Waxseal
will run it through the template you've provided.
To get a starter template, install pandoc locally and run pandoc -D latex > template.tex. You should commit this template to your repo.
