#lang pollen/mode racket/base
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
We can write a pollen.rkt file in any #lang. `#lang racket` is more convenient because it loads more
|
|
|
libraries by default. For the same reason, `#lang racket/base` — with a minimal set of libraries — is
|
|
|
slightly faster to load. The difference here is probably negligible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In general, the more virtuous habit is `#lang racket/base`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`pollen/mode` is a metalanguage that adds support for Pollen-mode commands in a source file.
|
|
|
So instead of `#lang racket/base` we write `#lang pollen/mode racket/base`. `pollen/mode` is optional.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BTW this file is heavily commented so it can serve as a Pollen learning tool. Rather than just read
|
|
|
along, you are encouraged to run this project with the project server active, and make changes to this
|
|
|
file and see how they affect the output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We could avoid the next `require` if we were using `#lang racket`, because these libraries would
|
|
|
already
|
|
|
be available.

Everything provided from a pollen.rkt is automatically available to Pollen source files in the
|

|
same directory or subdirectories (unless superseded by another pollen.rkt, as in the "fonts" subdir)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that `all-defined-out` would only export the definitions that are created in this file. To make
|
|
|
imported definitions available too, we need to re-export them with `all-from-out`.
|

Pollen recognizes the environment variable POLLEN, which can take any value.
|
|
|
For instance, instead of starting the project server with
|
|
|
|
|
|
raco pollen start
|
|
|
|
|
|
You could do
|
|
|
|
|
|
POLLEN=SOME-STRING raco pollen start
|
|
|
|
|
|
And "SOME-STRING" would be loaded into the POLLEN environment variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We can retrieve this value with `(getenv "POLLEN")`. It can be used to create branching behavior.
|
|
|
Here, we'll create a `dev-mode?` test and use it later to change the behavior of certain functions.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (dev-mode?)
|
|
|
(equal? (getenv "POLLEN") "DEV"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
Definitions in a pollen.rkt can be functions or values.
|
|
|
Here are a couple values.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define content-rule-color "#444") ; for CSS classes
|
|
|
(define buy-url "http://typo.la/oc") ; link to buy the Typography for Lawyers paperback

TAG FUNCTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`link`: make a hyperlink
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Pollen notation, we'll invoke the tag function like so:
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊link[url]{text of link}
|
|
|
◊link[url #:class "name"]{text of link}
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will become, in Racket notation:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(link url "text of link")
|
|
|
(link url #:class "name" "text of link")
|
|
|
|
|
|
The definition of the tag function will follow this syntax.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Learning to see the duality of Pollen & Racket notation is a necessary part of the learning curve.
|
|
|
Pollen notation is optimized for embedding commands in text.
|
|
|
Racket notation is optimized for writing code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The relationship between the two, however, is dependable and consistent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
By contrast, most "template languages" either make you use syntax that's different from the
|
|
|
underlying language, or restrict you to a subset of commands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Whereas any Racket command can be expressed in Pollen notation. So having two equivalent notation
|
|
|
systems ultimately lets you do more, not less.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
The definition of `link` follows the arguments above.
|
|
|
`url` is a mandatory argument.
|
|
|
`class` is a keyword argument (= must be introduced with #:class) and also optional (if it's not
|
|
|
provided, it will default to #f).
|
|
|
`xs` is a rest argument, as in "put the rest of the arguments here." Most definitions of
|
|
|
tag functions should end with a rest argument. Why? Because in Pollen notation, the `{text ...}`
|
|
|
in `◊func[arg]{text ...}` can return any number of arguments. Maybe one (e.g., if `text` is a word)
|
|
|
or maybe more (e.g, if `text ...` is a multiline block).
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you DON'T use a rest argument, and pass multiple text arguments to your tag function, you will get
|
|
|
an error (namely an "arity error", which means the function got more arguments than it expected).
|
|
|
|
|
|
The result of our tag function will be a tagged X-expression that looks like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
'(a ((href "url")) "text to link")
|
|
|
'(a ((href "url")(class "name")) "text to link")
|
|
|
|
|
|
X-expressions and tagged X-expressions are introduced in the Pollen docs.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define (link url #:class [class-name #f] . text-args)
|
|
|
(define no-text-arguments? (empty? text-args))
|
|
|
(if no-text-arguments?
|
|
|
(let ([text-to-link url])
|
|
|
;; if we don't have any text to link, use `url` as the link text too.
|
|
|
(link #:class class-name url text-to-link))
|
|
|
;; otherwise, create the basic tagged X-expression,
|
|
|
;; and then add the `url` and (maybe) `class` attributes.
|
|
|
;; `let*` is the idiomatic Racket way to mutate a variable.
|
|
|
;; (Spoiler alert: you're not really mutating, you're creating copies.)
|
|
|
;; You could also use `set!` — not wrong, but not idiomatic.
|
|
|
(let*
|
|
|
([link-tx (make-txexpr 'a empty text-args)]
|
|
|
;; `attr-set` is from the `txexpr` module. It updates an attribute value
|
|
|
;; and returns an updated X-expression.
|
|
|
[link-tx (attr-set link-tx 'href url)]
|
|
|
[link-tx (if class-name
|
|
|
(attr-set link-tx 'class class-name)
|
|
|
link-tx)])
|
|
|
link-tx)))

|
|
|
Making tagged X-expressions (txexprs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
In a "pollen.rkt" file you'll be making a lot of tagged X-expressions (txexprs for short).
|
|
|
A txexpr is just a Racket list, so you can make one with any of Racket's list-making functions
|
|
|
(which are plentiful). Let's run through a few of them, so they start to become familiar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Suppose we want to generate the txexpr '(div ((class "big")) "text"). Here are some ways to do it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1) `make-txexpr`
|
|
|
A utility function from the `txexpr` module. We used it in the `link` function above.
|
|
|
The major advantage of `make-txexpr` is that it will raise an error if your arguments are invalid
|
|
|
types for a tagged X-expression.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (make-txexpr 'div '((class "big")) '("text"))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
The second and third arguments to `make-txexpr` are lists, so you can use any list notation.
|
|
|
If your txexpr doesn't have attributes, you can pass `empty` or `null` for the second argument.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (make-txexpr 'div (list '(class "big")) (list "text"))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
2) `list` and `list*`
|
|
|
`list*` is particularly useful for making txexprs, because it automatically splices the last argument.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (list 'div '((class "big")) "text")
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (list* 'div '((class "big")) '("text"))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
3) `cons`
|
|
|
All lists are ultimately made of `cons` cells.
|
|
|
So you can make txexprs with it too, though it's more cumbersome than the other methods.
|
|
|
In most cases, `list*` is clearer & more flexible (`cons` can only take two arguments;
|
|
|
`list*` can take any number)
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (cons 'div (cons '((class "big")) (cons "text" empty)))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (cons 'div (list '((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
4) `quasiquote`
|
|
|
As the name suggests, quasiquote works like quote, but lets you "unquote" variables within.
|
|
|
Quasiquote notation is pleasingly compact for simple cases, but can be unruly for complex ones.
|
|
|
The unquote operator (,) puts a variable's value into the list.
|
|
|
The unquote splicing operator (,@) does the same thing, but if the variable holds a list of items,
|
|
|
it merges those items into the list (i.e., does not leave them as a sublist).
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(check-txexprs-equal? (let ([tag 'div]
|
|
|
[attrs '((class "big"))]
|
|
|
[elements '("text")])
|
|
|
; we unquote `attrs` because we want them as a sublist
|
|
|
; but we splice `elements` because we don't want them in a sublist
|
|
|
`(,tag ,attrs ,@elements))
|
|
|
'(div ((class "big")) "text"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
The next three tag functions are just convenience variations of `link`.
|
|
|
But they involve some crafty (and necessary) uses of `apply`.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`buy-book-link`: makes a link with a particular URL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notice that we have to use `apply` to correctly pass our `text-args` rest argument to `link`.
|
|
|
Why? Because `link` expects its text arguments to look like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(link url text-arg-1 text-arg-2 ...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(link url (list text-arg-1 text-arg-2 ...))
|
|
|
|
|
|
But that's what will happen if we just do `(link text-args)`, and `link` will complain. (Try it!)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The role of `apply` is to take a list of arguments and append them to the end of the function call, so
|
|
|
|
|
|
(apply link url (list text-arg-1 text-arg-2 ...))
|
|
|
|
|
|
Is equivalent to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(link url text-arg-1 text-arg-2 ...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define (buy-book-link . text-args)
|
|
|
(apply link buy-url text-args))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`buylink`: creates a link styled with the "buylink" class.
|
|
|
`home-link`: creates a link styled with the "home-link" class.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The difference here is that we're not providing a specific URL. Rather, we want to pass through
|
|
|
whatever URL we get from the Pollen source. So we add a `url` argument.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (buylink url . text-args)
|
|
|
(apply link url #:class "buylink" text-args))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define (home-link url . text-args)
|
|
|
(apply link url #:class "home-link" text-args))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
BTW we could also be let the rest argument capture the URL,
|
|
|
and just pass everything through with `apply`, which will work the same way:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define (buylink . url-and-text-args)
|
|
|
(apply link #:class "buylink" url-and-text-args))
|
|
|
|
|
|
The other definition is more readable and explicit, however.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`image`: make an img tag
|
|
|
|
|
|
We proceed as we did with `link`. But in this case, we don't need a rest argument
|
|
|
because this tag function doesn't accept text arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Right, but shouldn't you use a rest argument just in case?" It depends on how you like errors
|
|
|
to be handled. You could capture the text arguments with a rest argument and then just silently
|
|
|
dispose of them. But this might be mysterious to the person editing the Pollen source (whether you
|
|
|
or someone else). "Where did my text go?"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Whereas if we omit the rest argument, and try to pass text arguments anyhow, `image` will immediately
|
|
|
raise an error, letting us know that we're misusing it.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (image src #:width [width "100%"] #:border [border? #t])
|

`div-scale`: wrap tag in a 'div' with a scaling factor
|

|
◊div-scale[.75]{text here ...}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#

`home-image`: make an image with class "home-image"
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊home-image[image-path]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|

|
(define (home-image image-path)
|

|
(attr-set (image image-path) 'class "home-image"))

#|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`home-overlay`: create nested divs where the text sits atop a background image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊home-overlay[image-name]{text}
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an example of how fiddly HTML chores can be encapsulated / hidden inside a tag function.
|
|
|
This makes your source files tidier.
|
|
|
It also makes it possible to change the fiddly HTML markup from one central location.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (home-overlay img-path . text-args)
|
|
|
`(div ((class "home-overlay")(style ,(format "background-image: url('~a')" img-path)))
|
|
|
(div ((class "home-overlay-inner")) ,@text-args)))

|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`glyph`: create a span with the class "glyph".
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊glyph{text}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here, I'll use `make-default-tag-function`, which is an easy way to make a simple tag function.
|
|
|
Any keywords passed in will be propagated to every use of the tag function.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define glyph (make-default-tag-function 'span #:class "glyph"))

`image-wrapped`: like `image` but with some extra attributes
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊image-wrapped[img-path]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (image-wrapped img-path)
|
|
|
(attr-set* (image img-path) 'class "icon" 'style "width: 120px;" 'align "left"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`detect-list-items`: helper function for other tag functions that make HTML lists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The idea is to automatically convert a sequence of three (or more) linebreaks
|
|
|
into a new list item (i.e., <li> tag).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why three? Because later on, we'll make one linebreak = new line and two linebreaks = new paragraph.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function will be used within a `decode` function (more on that below)
|
|
|
in a position where it will be passed a list of X-expresssion elements,
|
|
|
and needs to return a list of X-expression elements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The idiomatic Racket way to enforce requirements on input & output values is with a function contract.
|
|
|
For simplicity, I'm not using them here.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (detect-list-items elems)
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; We need to do some defensive preprocessing here.
|
|
|
;; Our list of elements could contain sequences like "\n" "\n" "\n"
|
|
|
;; that should mean the same thing as "\n\n\n".
|
|
|
;; So we combine adjacent newlines with `merge-newlines`.
|
|
|
(define elems-merged (merge-newlines elems))
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; Then, a list item break is denoted by any element that matches three or more newlines.
|
|
|
(define (list-item-break? elem)
|
|
|
(define list-item-separator-pattern (regexp "\n\n\n+"))
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; Python people will object to the `(string? elem)` test below
|
|
|
;; as a missed chance for "duck typing".
|
|
|
;; You can do duck typing in Racket (see `with-handlers`) but it's not idiomatic.
|
|
|
;; IMO this is wise. Duck typing is an anti-pattern: it substitutes an explicit, readable test
|
|
|
;; for an implicit test ("I know if such-and-such isn't true, then a certain error will arise."
|
|
|
(and (string? elem) (regexp-match list-item-separator-pattern elem)))
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; `filter-split` will divide a list into sublists based on a certain test.
|
|
|
;; the result will be a list of lists, each representing the contents of an 'li tag.
|

`make-list-function`: helper function that makes other tag functions that make lists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(make-list-function 'list-tag-name)
|
|
|
(make-list-function 'list-tag-name '((attr-key "attr-value") ...))
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Racket you will often see functions that make other functions.
|
|
|
This is a good way to avoid making a bunch of functions that have small variations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
One way to write this function is like so:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define (listifier . args)
|
|
|
(list* tag attrs (detect-list-items args)))
|
|
|
listifier
|
|
|
|
|
|
That is, explicitly define a new function called `listifier` and then return that function.
|
|
|
That's the best way to do it in many programming languages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Racket, it's not wrong, but you should feel comfortable
|
|
|
with the idea that any function can be equivalently expressed in lambda notation,
|
|
|
which is the more Rackety idiom.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The code below has the same meaning, but without having to `define` an intermediate variable.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (make-list-function tag [attrs empty])
|
|
|
(λ args (list* tag attrs (detect-list-items args))))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
Now we can define `bullet-list` and `numbered-list` using our helper function.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define bullet-list (make-list-function 'ul))
|
|
|
(define numbered-list (make-list-function 'ol))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`btw`: make the "By the Way" list at the bottom of many pages,
|
|
|
e.g. http://typographyforlawyers.com/what-is-typography.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊btw{text ...}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another example of using a tag function to handle fiddly HTML markup.
|
|
|
The `btw` tag expands to an HTML list, which we will then crack open and add a headline div.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (btw . text-args)
|
|
|
(define btw-tag-function (make-list-function 'ul '((class "btw"))))
|
|
|
;; Why is `apply` needed here? See the explanation for `buy-book-link` above.
|
|
|
(define btw-list (apply btw-tag-function text-args))
|
|
|
(list* (get-tag btw-list)
|
|
|
(get-attrs btw-list)
|
|
|
'(div ((id "btw-title")) "by the way")
|
|
|
(get-elements btw-list)))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`xref`: create a styled cross-reference link, with optional destination argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
◊xref{target}
|
|
|
◊xref["url"]{target}
|
|
|
|
|
|
For this tag function, we will assume that target is a single text argument,
|
|
|
because that's how it will be used.
|
|
|
But to be safe, we'll raise an arity error if we get too many arguments.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define xref
|
|
|
;; What makes this function a little tricky is that the url argument is optional,
|
|
|
;; but if it appears, it appears first.
|
|
|
;; This is a good job for `case-lambda`, which lets you define separate branches for your function
|
|
|
;; depending on the total number of arguments provided.
|
|
|
(case-lambda
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; one argument: must be a target. Note the Rackety recursive technique here:
|
|
|
;; we'll create a second argument and then call `xref` again.
|
|
|
[(target) (xref (target->url target) target)]
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; two arguments: must be a url followed by a target.
|
|
|
[(url target) (apply attr-set* (link url target) 'class "xref" no-hyphens-attr)]
|
|
|
|
|
|
;; more than two arguments: raise an arity error.
|
|
|
[more-than-two-args (apply raise-arity-error 'xref (list 1 2) more-than-two-args)]))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`target->url`: convert the target text of an xref into a url.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function depends on my commitment to name my source files in a logical, predictable way,
|
|
|
e.g., "Why Does Typography Matter?" becomes "why-does-typography-matter.html".
|
|
|
If you needed to associate targets with URLs arbitrarily, you could store the targets and URLs
|
|
|
in an association list or hashtable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I do it this way so that it's easy to add new pages and xrefs, without the extra housekeeping step
|
|
|
The name of the source file for a page is determined by its title.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (target->url target)
|
|
|
(define nonbreaking-space (~a #\u00A0))
|
|
|
(let* ([xn target]
|
|
|
[xn (string-trim xn "?")] ; delete a question mark at the end
|
|
|
[xn (string-downcase xn)] ; put string in all lowercase
|
|
|
[xn (regexp-replace* #rx"é" xn "e")] ; remove accented é
|
|
|
[xn (if (regexp-match #rx"^foreword" xn) "foreword" xn)] ; special rule for foreword
|
|
|
[xn (if (regexp-match #rx"^table of contents" xn) "toc" xn)] ; special rule for toc
|
|
|
[xn (string-replace xn nonbreaking-space "-")] ; replace nbsp with hyphen
|
|
|
[xn (string-replace xn " " "-")]) ; replace word space with hyphen
|
|
|
(format "~a.html" xn)))

`xref-font`: special version of `xref` for the fontrec directory
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define (xref-font font-name)
|
|
|
(xref (format "fontrec/~a" (target->url font-name)) font-name))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`no-hyphens-attr`: an attribute we'll use to signal that some X-expression should not be hyphenated.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define no-hyphens-attr '(hyphens "none"))
|
|
|

#|
|
|
|
`define-heading`: macro for defining a function that makes a heading.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This could also be done with `make-default-tag-function`. And as a rule of thumb, it's wise to reserve
|
|
|
macros for the times you can't avoid using them. Otherwise, use a function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We'll bend that rule here because this is a quick & easy example macro. What makes it suitable to be
|
|
|
handled as a macro is that we want to use the name of the identifier (for instance 'topic') as an
|
|
|
argument to the function. Ordinarily we can't do that, but with a macro, we can.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`define-syntax-rule` is the easiest macro form: essentially you're writing a code template
|
|
|
with arguments that will be filled in when you invoke the macro.
|
|
|
|#
|
|
|
(define-syntax-rule (define-heading heading-name tag)
|
|
|
; first, heading-name is used as an identifier
|
|
|
(define heading-name
|
|
|
; then it's used as a symbol that is converted to a string.
|
|
|
(make-default-tag-function tag #:class (symbol->string 'heading-name))))
|
|
|
|
|
|
(define-heading topic 'h3)
|
|
|
(define-heading subhead 'h3)
|
|
|
(define-heading font-headline 'h3)
|
|
|
(define-heading section 'h2)
|
|
|
(define-heading chapter 'h1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#|
|
|
|
`define-heading-from-metas`: macro for defining a function that makes a heading
|
|
|
by relying on data in the metas.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This macro relies on `syntax-case` rather than `define-syntax-rule`.
|
|
|
It's a little more complicated, but also more flexible (and more idiomatic in Racket).
|
|
|
`define-syntax-rule` is actually a special simplified version of `syntax-case`.
|
|
|
The best advice on learning macros is to start with `syntax-case`, because you can't live without it.
|
|
|
Good tutorial: http://www.greghendershott.com/fear-of-macros/pattern-matching.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise this macro is similar to `define-heading`, except that we want to introduce a new identifier
|
|
|
based on the name given to the macro. So if we pass `topic` to the macro, it will define
|
|
|
an identifier called `topic-from-metas`. You can't do that with `define-syntax-rule`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For fun, I used Pollen notation inside the macro just to show you that it will work.

In HTML, wrapping every paragraph in <p> tags is a terrible and dull task.
|
|
|
But formatting tables is even worse.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function lets you make simple tables using "|" to signify columns,
|
|
|
and line breaks to signify rows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's uncork a few more whizzy Racket commands while we're at it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function assumes that each row has the same number of columns.
|
|
|
You could improve it to fill in blank cells in rows that need them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#

(let ([text-rows (filter-not whitespace? text-args)]) ; throw out the linebreak characters
|
|
|
;; `for/list` is very handy: a `for` loop that gathers the results into a list.
|
|
|
;; Think of it as a more flexible version of `map`.
|
|
|
(for/list ([text-row (in-list text-rows)])

|

;; Racket's `match` functions are very useful.

`pdf-thumbnail-link`: create a thumbnail of a PDF that links to the PDF
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function will only work properly if you have `sips` on your system
|
|
|
(command-line image-processing program, included with OS X).
|
|
|
|
|
|
This shows how you can fold other kinds of project housekeeping into Pollen commands.
|
|
|
Here, the function generates the thumbnail it needs when the page is compiled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
One disadvantage of this approach is that the thumbnail will *always* be generated on recompile,
|
|
|
though you could put in some logic to avoid this (e.g., check the modification date of the PDF).
|
|
|
In this case, `sips` is fast enough that it's not bothersome.

`root`: decode page content
|
|
|
|
|
|
In a Pollen markup source, the output is a tagged X-expression that starts with `root`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(root (div ((class "headline")) "Page title") ...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recall that every Pollen tag calls a function with the same name (if it exists, otherwise it just
|
|
|
becomes a tag). This is also true of `root`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`root` has slightly special status inasmuch as it is the top tag of the X-expression,
|
|
|
and thus the last tag function that will get called. Therefore, `root` is a good place to put any
|
|
|
processing that should happen once all the page content has been filled in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Often, you'll want to use a `decode` function, which can recursively perform different kinds of
|
|
|
processing on different types of page elements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|#
|

Because I'm a typography snob I like to push quotation marks into the margin a little bit
|
|
|
when they appear at the left edge of a line (aka "hanging quotes").
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function just wraps left-hand quote marks in two little tags ("push" and "pull")
|
|
|
that I can then manipulate in CSS to get the effect.

When I type an em dash in my sources, I will often leave a space around it,
|
|
|
but I don't want spaces in the output, so this function removes them.
