Convert memory data to markdown table

[Yves Amevoin]

Please, is there a way to convert data (Not result from commands) in stata memory to a markdown table, preferably pandoc table?

[Yves Amevoin]

I finally came up with a kable command for stata available on this gist: https://gist.github.com/f0226f009b9d...d218dab1630da0


There is no documentation though.

The kable program is applied to in memory dataset, and you can export the result either to a md/txt file or just print it on the console.

An interesting work arround is to use the kable program within a dyntex file and convert the dyntex using pandoc to any desired format.

The tables are hard coded in pandoc grid tables

Here are simple examples (after executing/loading the kable program)

sysuse auto, clear
kable

or

sysuse auto, clear
kable, usevarnames

or

sysuse auto, clear
kable, usevarlabels out("temp.md")


I know the code needs probably to be improved, but a least it gives something to start with.

Hope this helps.
