Writing and notes on wiki printing practices:

How does it work?

When you create a page in the Pdf namespace on https://cc.vvvvvvaria.org/wiki/, it will load the wiki-to-print buttons in the navigation bar:

  • CSS!
  • View HTML
  • View PDF
  • Update text
  • Update Media

You can transclude pages into this page, structure your publication and edit the CSS.

  • When you click View HTML: the Flask application returns you a HTML version of the page.
  • When you click View PDF: the Flask application returns you a HTML version of the page, loaded with Paged.js. The HTML page is rendered into pages, giving you a preview of the PDF. You can use the inspector to work on the lay out.
  • When you click Update text: the Flask application makes a copy of all the text of the page and saves it to a file on the server (in the static folder).
  • When you click Update media: the Flask application downloads all the images on the page and saves tem to a folder on the server (in the static folder).

In this repository

  • command-line: Python script to work on a local copy of your publication
  • wiki-to-print: Flask application that renders a wiki page into HTML
