Pandoc's pptx writer was the ceiling on how good a generated deck could be, and the model on top made no difference to it. It maps markdown onto a handful of reference layouts with no per-slide layout, no positioning and no control over how large an image is drawn, which is why every deck came out as bullets on a template — and why autofit had to be injected into its emitted OOXML by hand afterwards, because LibreOffice ignores the autofit pandoc leaves off. scripts/render_pptx.py draws the deck and src/utils/slideSpec.js decides what each slide is. Markdown stays the stored artifact, so "change slide 4" is still a text edit and Word export is untouched — pandoc still writes docx, where its output is good. What that buys, all of it visible in a rendered deck rather than argued for: - 16:9, not pandoc's 4:3. - A pipe table becomes a real table with a header band and banded rows, not eight lines of text with pipes in them. - A list longer than seven items becomes two columns instead of a wall of text. - Text is measured and sized to fit before the file is written, so nothing depends on a renderer honouring autofit. - Wrapped lines hang under the text instead of running back to the margin, which is the clearest single tell that a deck was generated. - An image is drawn at its own aspect ratio, centred, with a caption. Figures now reach the deck at all, which they never did. They were queued and shown on the page, but nothing recorded that they belonged to the resource, so an export could not include them: user_resources.image_ids holds them, a modification adds to that list rather than replacing it, and export fetches the finished ones to a scratch directory. They are spread through the deck rather than appended, because ending on three unexplained pictures is worse than showing each near its material, and a References slide stays last. If the renderer fails for any reason, pandoc still produces a deck — a plainer deck beats a failed download. Verified end to end: a seven-slide request with three figures exported as a 13-page deck; the slides were rendered to PDF, rasterised and looked at. All three formats still download.

"""Render a slide deck from a JSON spec on stdin to a .pptx file.
|
||
|
||
Replaces pandoc's pptx writer, which could only map markdown onto a handful of
|
||
reference layouts. Everything that made those decks look generated is decided
|
||
here instead: which layout a slide gets, how large its text is, where an image
|
||
sits and at what aspect ratio, how a table is drawn.
|
||
|
||
Input (stdin, JSON):
|
||
{"title": str, "subtitle": str, "date": str,
|
||
"slides": [ {...} ],
|
||
"images": [ "/abs/path.png", ... ] }
|
||
|
||
Each slide is one of:
|
||
{"type": "title", "heading": str, "subtitle": str}
|
||
{"type": "section", "heading": str}
|
||
{"type": "bullets", "heading": str, "bullets": [{"text":str,"level":int}], "notes": str}
|
||
{"type": "two", "heading": str, "left": [...], "right": [...]}
|
||
{"type": "table", "heading": str, "header": [str], "rows": [[str]]}
|
||
{"type": "image", "heading": str, "image": str, "caption": str}
|
||
|
||
Output: argv[1], a .pptx path. Errors go to stderr and exit non-zero, so the
|
||
caller can fall back rather than ship a broken file.
