This helper module exports the main writers, readers, and data structure definitions from the Pandoc libraries.

A typical application will chain together a reader and a writer to convert strings from one format to another. For example, the following simple program will act as a filter converting markdown fragments to reStructuredText, using reference-style links instead of inline links:

module Main where
import Text.Pandoc
import Data.Text (Text)
import qualified Data.Text.IO as T

mdToRST :: Text -> IO Text
mdToRST txt = runIOorExplode $
  readMarkdown def txt
  >>= writeRST def{ writerReferenceLinks = True }

main :: IO ()
main = do
  T.getContents >>= mdToRST >>= T.putStrLn
