[NTG-context] NTG-context] How to hack the lua files
I haven't been using the project structure. From your question, I am inferring that this might help. At present I have treated the files as two separate documents. I didn't take too much time looking at how to set up the project structure because it wasn't clear that I needed it. But I can see how this might impact cross references between documents. -Lance On 6/17/2013 3:25 PM, Lance Larsen wrote: > Hans, > > Thankyou for your suggestion of using the \usereferences tag to reference > formulas in another document.

[NTG-context] NTG-context] How to hack the lua files
Hans, Thankyou for your suggestion of using the \usereferences tag to reference formulas in another document. This is a good solution. However the example below doesn't give usable results because the references to the external formula output by test2.tex does not include the chapter number: test1.tex: - \starttext \chapter{Chapter 1} \placeformula[one] \startformula x = y \stopformula \placeformula[two] \startformula y = z \stopformula \chapter{Chapter 2} \placeformula[three] \startformula z = x \stopformula \stoptext test2.tex: -- \usereferences[test1.tex] \starttext \in{formula}[test1.tex::one] \in{formula}[test1.tex::two] \in{formula}[test1.tex::three] \stoptext In the output of test1.tex, the formulas are labeled (1.1), (1.2), and (2.1). In the output of test2.tex the references are labeled 'formula 1', 'formula 2', and 'formula 1' (i.e. the section number is not included). Using the \usereferences tag works if I label formulas 'bytext' rather than by 'bysection' and turn off chapter prefixes in test1.tex using the following at the start of the document: \setupformulae[way=bytext,prefixsegments=None] I would really prefer to maintain numbering by section, but to do this, I need test2.tex to show external references in the same way as test1.tex (by including the section number in front of the equation number). Is there a way to do this at present? If not, labeling formulas 'bytext' will work for now even if it isn't ideal. -Lance Larsen On 6/7/2013 4:01 PM, Lance Larsen wrote: > luigi, > > When I started exploring how to map equation references (eq:name) to > equation numbers (4.2), I noticed that the 'tuc' file included the equation > reference (eq:name), but I was not able to identify anywhere where it > indicates the actual equation label specified in the document.

Thanks again for the reply which got me over the first hurdle. It's not that trivial as numbers are not stored like 2.1.2 and so, but as abstractions with optional rendering directives so that they can be generated on demand, depending on circumstances. For instance a formula number can be formatted differently in a list, reference, formula or wherever needed. So, in principle, there can be \in{formula}[a] references rendered in one place as 1.2.1 with the 1 being green and slanted and another place as 2.1 with the 1 being red and bold. So .. if a tracing feature like yours is needed for some reason, it has to be hooked into several places but in a consistent way (quite doable but takes time and no one needed it). The reason is that there is not one list of references but for efficiency reasons references are picked up from several 'tables'. For instance, currently, formula references come from structure lists (which also indicates that there can be lists of formulas). The following demonstrates this. \setupbodyfont[pagella] \starttext \placeformula[a] \startformula a \stopformula see \in{formula}[a] \placeformula[b] \startformula b \stopformula see \in{formula}[b] \startformula c \stopformula \startluacode local list = structures.lists.collected for i, l in ipairs(list) do -- if l.metadata.name == "formula" then logs.report("references",string.formatters["%s: %.t"]( l.references.reference, l.numberdata.numbers )) -- end end \stopluacode \stoptext - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Re: [NTG-context] How to hack the lua files
If I modify a core lua file how do I remake the format file? Is this something that is done from mtxrun.exe? I would certainly prefer to use a hook rather than modifying a core file, but how do I identify the hooks that are available? Is there a list of hooks that are available, or a standard way that hooks are called from the context code so that I can look for an appropriate hook? Where do I place my hook scripts? Is there a guide that is available that might get me started? What I trying to do is map equation references to the equation number generated by context. So for example, if I have an equation: \placeformula \startformula \NC F = m a \NC \NR[eq:newtonslaw] \stopformula I need a way to log the fact that 'eq:newton' became something like equation (2.3). I hoped there was a tracker that printed this out (maybe there is, but I haven't found it). So I thought maybe I could find where equation numbers are defined by context and add a tracker. The code in 'strc-ref.mkvi' and 'strc-ref.lua' looked promising. Incidentally, is this where equation numbers are created, or should I be looking in another file? Is there a lua function that gets called consistently around the time equation numbers are defined where the equation reference (i.e. eq:newtonslaw) and the associated equation number are both available and could be logged? I tried adding a new tracker in strc-ref.lua to see if I could narrow down where the labels are created, but my tracker did not seem to work. Therefore, I identified a tracker that was working and tried to modify the output slightly only to find that this did not work either. It is not clear to me at present how context loads the lua files. I hoped that it loaded these directly, so that changes would take effect immediately. -Lance Larsen -- On 6/7/2013 1:20 AM, Lance Larsen wrote: > I have a version of context standalone installed, and I am trying to > add some functionality I need to strc-ref.lua.

The code I modified is under the path: context\tex\texmf-context\tex\context\base\ strc-ref.lua if you patch files that way you need to remake the format file I don't know what you patch, but changing something in a core file is no guarantee for the future. It's not a problem to add functionality (lots of hooks for that) but best do that in a local module that gets loaded at runtime then.

[NTG-context] How to hack the lua files
I have a version of context standalone installed, and I am trying to add some functionality I need to strc-ref.lua. As a simple test to see if modifying the file was working, I enabled the 'structures.referencing.identifying' tracker and verified that I was getting messages from this tracker in the log. I then modified the log statement in strc-ref.lua and processed the document again. The changes I made to the lua file did not seem to be active. I verified that there is only one log statement that matches the output I am seeing. Why would my lua code change not be active? Is the lua code cached somehow? (I am running this from windows if that matters).
