target
Contextual
Returns the current export target.
This function returns either
"paged"
(for PDF, PNG, and SVG export), or"html"
(for HTML export).
The design of this function is not yet finalized and for this reason it is guarded behind the html
feature. Visit the HTML documentation page for more details.
When to use it
This function allows you to format your document properly across both HTML and paged export targets. It should primarily be used in templates and show rules, rather than directly in content. This way, the document's contents can be fully agnostic to the export target and content can be shared between PDF and HTML export.
Varying targets
This function is contextual as the target can vary within a single compilation: When exporting to HTML, the target will be "paged"
while within an html.frame
.
Example
#let kbd(it) = context {
if target() == "html" {
html.elem("kbd", it)
} else {
set text(fill: rgb("#1f2328"))
let r = 3pt
box(
fill: rgb("#f6f8fa"),
stroke: rgb("#d1d9e0b3"),
outset: (y: r),
inset: (x: r),
radius: r,
raw(it)
)
}
}
Press #kbd("F1") for help.
