Pandoc 转换为 pdf 不适用于 heroku

标签： heroku pandoc pdflatex buildpack tex-live

我有一个 ruby​​ on rails 应用程序，它使用 pandoc-ruby 将 Markdown 文件转换为 pdf。 pandoc-ruby 需要安装 pandoc。要成功转换为 pdf，还需要存在 pdflatex。如果安装了 pandoc、texlive-latex-recommended 和 texlive-fonts-recommended 软件包，则本地（在 Mac 和 Ubuntu 18.04 上测试）一切正常。部署到 heroku 时，事情变得有点棘手。 为了在 heroku 上安装所有软件包，我使用了 Aptfile 方法，但我无法解决这个问题。


方法一：Aptfile

我已经指定了这个 Aptfile：

# Aptfile
texlive-latex-recommended
texlive-fonts-recommended
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases/download/2.11.3.2/pandoc-2.11.3.2-1-amd64.deb

我得到的错误是：

我尝试使用 heroku run bash 来尝试弄清楚发生了什么。好像所有的包都安装好了，但是一个简单的 pandoc 命令失败了，看下面的输出。

方法 2：自定义构建包

我还尝试了 2 个用于 TeX Live 的自定义构建包，发现 here 和 here。 它看起来更有希望，但在转换为 pdf 时仍然会产生错误。请参阅下面的 heroku run bash 输出。

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分：1)

经过反复试验，我找到了一个有效的解决方案。

正如@mb21 所提到的，Docker 镜像可能是长期的最佳选择。 Docker images are supported on Heroku。但是，我想避免对整个应用程序进行 dockerizing 来解决这个问题。

找到支持添加自定义 TeX Live 包 (one example of such buildpack) 的 Heroku 的 TeX Live buildpack 后，转换错误为 ! LaTeX Error: File 'xcolor.sty' not found.

我使用 tlmgr 来获取有关丢失文件的一些信息。运行 tlmgr search --global --file xcolor.sty 可以解决问题并显示有一个名为 xcolor 的包。安装后，我们来到下一个错误，下一个，下一个。最后，我最终安装了 2 个对 Heroku 来说足够小的集合（注意 500MB 的 slug 大小限制）并包含成功转换所需的所有 pandoc。这两个是 collection-fontsrecommended 和 collection-latexrecommended。

将 texlive.packages 文件添加到应用程序的根目录即可解决问题。它被 buildpack 识别，并使用 tlmgr 为您安装所有指定的包。

# texlive.packages

collection-fontsrecommended
collection-latexrecommended
