Weave

Weave is a scientific report generator/literate programming tool for Julia. It resembles Pweave and, Knitr and Sweave.

You can write your documentation and code in input document using Nowed or Markdown syntax and use weave function to execute to document to capture results and figures.

Current features

• Noweb, markdown or script syntax for input documents.
• Execute code as terminal or "script" chunks.
• Capture Gadfly, PyPlot and Winston figures.
• Supports LaTex, Pandoc, Github markdown, MultiMarkdown, Asciidoc and reStructuredText output
• Publish markdown directly to html and pdf using Pandoc.
• Simple caching of results

Usage

Run from julia using Gadfly for plots:

using Weave
weave(Pkg.dir("Weave","examples","gadfly_sample.mdw"))

If you have Pandoc installed you can also weave directly to html and pdf.

weave(Pkg.dir("Weave","examples","gadfly_md_sample.jmd"), informat="markdown",
  out_path = :pwd, doctype = "md2html")

Documentation

Documenter.jl with MKDocs generated documentation:

Contributing

I will probably add new features to Weave when I need them myself or if they are requested and not too difficult to implement. You can contribute by opening issues on Github or implementing things yourself and making a pull request. I'd also appreciate example documents written using Weave to add to examples.
