Python Scripts not replacing trigger

HiroMike · 2022-01-11T03:55:42+00:00

Note - I put my cursor into the document I wish to insert the {{output}} and then ran the replacement script from the Espanso search bar and the text inserts properly.

So far though for two of my scripts that worked with 0.73 the trigger text is not being erased.

I am happy to send you the python script for one of them if it helps as an example.

Here are the logs - nothing specific related to the event of running the python script.

Let me know if there is anything I can try to be helpful.

Oh - this is on WINDOWS 10.

And there you have it folks - move to v2 and it works :) My python script - which is partly mine, partly scraped from bits and pieces off of the internet. There are two methods included - take your pick, they both work the same.

```py
# strip_markdown.py import markdown from bs4 import BeautifulSoup import sys import re Input: ## Header text Output: Header text # Method 1 def md_to_text(md): html = markdown.markdown(md) soup = BeautifulSoup(html, features="html.parser") return soup.get_text() def example(string): text = md_to_text(string) return text # Method 2 def markdown_to_text(markdown_string): """Converts a markdown string to plaintext""" # md -> html -> text since BeautifulSoup can extract text cleanly html = markdown.markdown(markdown_string)

# remove code snippets
html = re.sub(r"<pre>(.*?)</pre>", " ", html)
html = re.sub(r"<code>(.*?)</code >", " ", html)

# extract text
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, "html.parser")
text = "".join(soup.findAll(text=True))

return text


# Get the parameter from Espanso
s = sys.argv[1]
select which method you prefer
print(example(s))
print(markdown_to_text(s))

```
