Hey,
Thanks for pypandoc
I have been using it for quite some while now ;). However, there is a tiny problem when using pypandoc.download_pandoc()
on windows. The installer will be downloaded but cannot be executed due to a wrong path.
Steps to reproduce:
Create the following folder structure
.
├── app.py
├── download_folder
└── target_folder
Run
# using python 3.7.5
pipenv --three
pipenv install pypandoc
pipenv run python -c "import pypandoc; print(pypandoc.__version__)"
# 1.5
Run the following code snippet
from pathlib import Path
import pypandoc
print(pypandoc.__version__)
target_folder = Path('./target_folder').resolve()
download_folder = Path('./download_folder').resolve()
pypandoc.download(targetfolder=str(target_folder), download_folder=str(download_folder))
The installer will be downloaded to download_folder
. However, the installer path passed to subprocess.check_call
is wong. The path to the installer is generated via:
# pypandoc/download_pandoc.py line 195
filename = os.path.expanduser(download_folder) + '/' + filename
So the generated path on windows will be: C:\\Some\\Path\\to/my_installer.msi
about which windows complains.
Thank you for looking into this :).
