Latex shell-escape options in YAML header don't use

问题

I'm writing a report on Rmarkdovn but when you try to compile - pandoc_args options ignored when compile pdf.

I find this question: Is it possible to include svg image in pdf document rendered by rmarkdown?

But it does not work because --latex-engine-opt replaced by --pdf-engine-opt. I replaced, but also did not work.

Compilation command:

Rscript -e "rmarkdown::render('test.rmd')"

test.rmd

---
title: Test
papersize: a4paper
output:
  pdf_document:
    latex_engine: pdflatex
    pandoc_args: [
      --pdf-engine-opt, -shell-escape,
      --pdf-engine-opt, -interaction=nonstopmode]
header-includes:
  - \usepackage{minted}
---

Output:

I can use knitr -> pandoc -> xelatex, but it would be more convenient to use YAML header.

回答1:

R Markdown documents are compiled to PDF via tinytex::latexmk(). To enable the -shell-escape option for your LaTeX engine, you may set the global option tinytex.engine_args, e.g., add this code chunk to your document:

```{r, include=FALSE}
options(tinytex.engine_args = '-shell-escape')
```

See the help page ?tinytex::latexmk for more information.

The LaTeX engine is called by tinytex::latexmk() instead of Pandoc, so the Pandoc argument --pdf-engine-opt won't work.
