Installation

Yewdocs works with Python >= 3.8

Make sure you have Python3 installed. Make sure you have pip3 working.

You can user yewdocs without Pandoc, but some nice features will be missing like converting documents to other types, pdf, html, docx, etc. Pandoc must be installed following the instructions specific to your operating system.

MacOS:

brew install pandoc

Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install pandoc

Windows:

http://pandoc.org/installing.html

Git clone the repo:

git clone git@github.com:paul-wolf/yewdoc-client.git

cd into the resulting directory and execute the install command:

cd yewdoc-client
pip3 install --editable .

That should be all that is required. We will later make a PyPi module available. Now type:

yd info

You should see output about settings.

For PDF exports, you’ll need to also install pdflatext in addition to pandoc:

On macos:

brew cask install mactex
