class mod.post

This class (which will be a submodule in the future) contains various functions to manipulate post-processing (PostMØD). Commands for the post-processor are written to the command file out/post.sh which the post-processor executes internally as a Bash script.

static command(line)

Write the given text to the command file and write a newline character.

Parameters:

line (str) – the text to be written.

Warning

The contents of the command file is executed without any security checks.

static flushCommands()

Flush the command file buffer.

static disableCommands()

Disable command writing and flushing, also for commands emitted internally in the library.

static enableCommands()

Enable command writing and flushing, also for commands emitted internally in the library.

static reopenCommandFile()

Reopen the command file, which may be useful if it was modified externally while open by the library.

static summaryChapter(heading)

Command the post-processor to insert a \chapter macro in the summary.

Parameters:

heading (str) – the chapter heading to insert.

static summarySection(heading)

Command the post-processor to insert a \section macro in the summary.

Parameters:

static summaryRaw(latexCode, file=...)

Command the post-processor to insert the given code verbatim in the summary.

Parameters:

• latexCode (str) – the code to insert.

• file (str) – if given then that will be appended to a unique prefix for the final filename the code is stored in.
