LaTeX Codec¶
The latexcodec.codec
module
contains all classes and functions for LaTeX code
translation. For practical use,
you should only ever need to import the latexcodec
module,
which will automatically register the codec
so it can be used by str.encode()
, str.decode()
,
and any of the functions defined in the codecs
module
such as codecs.open()
and so on.
The other functions and classes
are exposed in case someone would want to extend them.
-
latexcodec.codec.
register
()¶ Register the
find_latex()
codec search function.See also
-
latexcodec.codec.
find_latex
(encoding)¶ Return a
codecs.CodecInfo
instance for the requested LaTeX encoding, which must be equal tolatex
, or tolatex+<encoding>
where<encoding>
describes another encoding.
-
class
latexcodec.codec.
LatexIncrementalEncoder
(errors='strict')¶ Bases:
latexcodec.lexer.LatexIncrementalEncoder
Translating incremental encoder for latex. Maintains a state to determine whether control spaces etc. need to be inserted.
-
get_space_bytes
(bytes_)¶ Inserts space bytes in space eating mode.
-
-
class
latexcodec.codec.
LatexIncrementalDecoder
(errors='strict')¶ Bases:
latexcodec.lexer.LatexIncrementalDecoder
Translating incremental decoder for LaTeX.
-
class
latexcodec.codec.
LatexCodec
¶ Bases:
codecs.Codec
-
decode
(bytes_, errors='strict')¶ Convert LaTeX bytes to unicode string.
-
encode
(unicode_, errors='strict')¶ Convert unicode string to LaTeX bytes.
-
-
class
latexcodec.codec.
LatexUnicodeTable
(lexer)¶ Tabulates a translation between LaTeX and unicode.
-
register
(unicode_text, latex_text, mode='text', package=None, decode=True, encode=True)¶ Register a correspondence between unicode_text and latex_text.
Parameters: - unicode_text (str) – A unicode character.
- latex_text (bytes) – Its corresponding LaTeX translation.
- mode (str) – LaTeX mode in which the translation applies
(
'text'
or'math'
). - package (str) – LaTeX package requirements (currently ignored).
- decode (bool) – Whether this translation applies to decoding
(default:
True
). - encode (bool) – Whether this translation applies to encoding
(default:
True
).
-
register_all
()¶ Register all symbols and their LaTeX equivalents (called by constructor).
