Basic Usage

Convert single file

use Pandoc\Options;
use Pandoc\Pandoc;
use Symfony\Component\Finder\Finder;

// 1. Convert a single file with options:
$options = Options::create()
    ->setInput(['input.md'])
    ->setOutput('output.pdf')
    ->setFormat('pdf')
    ->tableOfContent();

Pandoc::create()->convert($options);

Convert multiple files using Finder

$finder = Finder::create()->files()->in('docs')->name('*.md');
$options = Options::create()
    ->setInput($finder)
    ->setOutputDir('output')
    ->setFormat('html');

Pandoc::create()->convert($options);

## Options

### Default Options

```php
$defaultOptions = Options::create()
    ->setFormat('html')
    ->tableOfContent();

$pandoc = Pandoc::create(defaultOptions: $defaultOptions);

Override default options

$options = Options::create()->setInput(['chapter1.md'])->setOutput('chapter1.html');
$pandoc->convert($options);

Advanced Options

$defaultOptions = Options::create()
    ->setInput(Finder::create()->files()->in('docs')->name('*.md'))
    ->setOutputDir('output')
    ->setFormat('html');
    
$pandoc = Pandoc::create(null, $defaultOptions);
$pandoc->convert(Options::create()); // Will use default options
