Dependencies
- This node requires the Marp CLI tool, which it runs via 'npx marp'. It depends on having Node.js and npm installed with access to the 'marp' package.
- It uses the system's temporary directory to write intermediate Markdown and PDF files.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues include errors if the Marp CLI is not installed or accessible via 'npx'.
- Errors during conversion will throw messages prefixed with 'Erro ao converter Markdown com Marp'.
- Ensure the environment where the node runs has permission to write to the temporary directory and execute child processes.
- If the PDF file is not generated, check that the Marp CLI command syntax and version are correct.
