Dynamic path on Markdoc

[Louis de Charson]

Dear All,

I've problem using dynamic path on markdoc. What I want to do is generate graphs in a loop, save them as an eps file and put them in a .docx generated by Markdoc.

Here is my code :

capture log close
qui log using test_markdoc, replace smcl

sysuse auto.dta

graph box price
graph export box_price.eps, replace
/***
![Box of price](box_price.eps)
***/

/***
Testing dynamic path
***/
foreach var in price weight {
    graph box `var'
    graph export box_`var'.eps, replace
    txt ![Box of `var'](box_`var'.eps)
}

qui log c
markdoc test_markdoc, replace export(docx) install

However, the markdoc is breaking inside the loop. I've attached the log file to the post.
I'm using Mac OS 10.9.5 with Stata/SE 14.1
I'd rather not use the `img` command since I'm using Stata inside Emacs (in which this command is not working).

I'd be grateful of any help.

Best,

Louis

This turned out to be a bug. Interestingly, if you were exporting the graphs "quietly", there would be no bug! But anyway, the new release fixes this bug.

Reinstall both Weaver and MarkDoc from GitHub (txt command belongs to Weaver)

To use this example, I have had success with graphics and Stata output into Word documents by turning the inclusion //ON and //OFF with

/**/ di "{com}. //ON"

.

capture log close
local dirA `"C:\MyPrjct\sjlatex\"'
cd `dirA'
qui log using test_markdoc, replace smcl

sysuse auto.dta
//OFF
graph box price
graph export box_price.emf, replace
//ON
img using `"`dirA'box_price.emf"' , ///
  title("Box of price")


txt "Testing dynamic path"
//OFF
foreach var in price weight {
    graph box `var'
    graph export box_`var'.emf, replace
/**/ di "{com}. //ON"
    img using `"`dirA'box_`var'.emf"' , ///
  title("Box of `var'")
/**/ summarize `var' , detail
/**/ di "{com}. //OFF"
}
