class Writer(latex2e.Writer): (source)
Method | __init__ |
Undocumented |
Class Variable | config_section |
The name of the config file section specific to this component (lowercase, no brackets). Override in subclasses. |
Class Variable | config_section_dependencies |
A list of names of config file sections that are to be applied before
config_section , in order (from general to specific). In other words,
the settings in config_section are to be overlaid on top of the settings
from these sections. The "general" section is assumed implicitly.

Class Variable | settings_spec |

:
Method | assemble_parts |
Assemble the self.parts dictionary of output fragments. |
Method | get_transforms |
Transforms required by this class. Override in subclasses. |
Method | translate |
Do final translation of self.document into self.output . Called from write . Override in subclasses. |

Undocumented |
Class Variable | settings_defaults |
A dictionary of defaults for settings not in settings_spec (internal
settings, intended to be inaccessible by command-line and config file).

Process a document into its final form. |
Class Variable | component_type |
Name of the component type ('reader', 'parser', 'writer'). Override in subclasses. |
Instance Variable | destination |
docutils.io Output object; where to write the document. Set by write . |
Instance Variable | document |
The document to write (Docutils doctree); set by write . |
Instance Variable | language |
Language module for the document; set by write . |
Instance Variable | parts |
Mapping of document part names to fragments of self.output . Values are Unicode strings; encoding is up to the client. The 'whole' key should contain the entire document output. |

config_section
, in order (from general to specific). In other words,
the settings in config_section
are to be overlaid on top of the settings
from these sections. The "general" section is assumed implicitly.
Override in subclasses.Runtime settings specification. Override in subclasses.
Defines runtime settings and associated command-line options, as used by
docutils.frontend.OptionParser
. This is a tuple of:
Option group title (string or None
which implies no group, just a list
of single options).
Description (string or None
).
A sequence of option tuples. Each consists of:
Help text (string)
List of option strings (e.g. ['-Q', '--quux']).
Dictionary of keyword arguments sent to the OptionParser/OptionGroup add_option method.
Runtime setting names are derived implicitly from long option names ('--a-setting' becomes settings.a_setting) or explicitly from the 'dest' keyword argument.
Most settings will also have a 'validator' keyword & function. The
validator function validates setting values (from configuration files
and command-line option arguments) and converts them to appropriate
types. For example, the docutils.frontend.validate_boolean
function, required by all boolean settings, converts true values
('1', 'on', 'yes', and 'true') to 1 and false values ('0', 'off',
'no', 'false', and '') to 0. Validators need only be set once per
setting. See the docutils.frontend.validate_*
functions.
See the optparse docs for more details.
More triples of group title, description, options, as many times as
needed. Thus, settings_spec
tuples can be simply concatenated.
