Coen

A RegEx-based transpiler for markdown-like languages written in Rust.

Installation

Coen is available in crates.io and can be installed using Cargo: cargo install coen

Usage

Use a template to create documents (for example, clone this one for LaTeX) and add/modify your contents in the *.coen files.

Setting variables

You can set variables using the set command: !set variable value

Adding definitions

You can add definitions using the def command: !def blue\s(?P<name>.+) gray $name

This one, for example, changes every instance of blue * into gray *.

Transpilation

Pass the path to the root file and supply an optional target location: coen root.coen --target tgt/target.tex

You can also set the target location within the coen file with: !set TARGET tgt/target.tex

However, passing the target parameter in the command line will override this value.
