Installing

This package requires Pandoc to run. You can install Pandoc from:

https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases

Workaround on OSX for pandoc could not be spawned error

If launching Atom from the OSX dock rather than from the terminal, you might see a path problem where /usr/local/bin is not loaded into the path causing pandoc not to be found.

'pandoc' could not be spawned. 
Is it installed and on your path? 
If so please open an issue on the package spawning the process.

This is a current bug in Atom.

Until this atom bug is fixed, a workaround is to add the following config to the ~/.atom/init.coffee file the relaunch from the OSX dock:

process.env.PATH = ["/usr/bin",
                    "/usr/local/bin",
                    ].join(":")
