New intermediate release ?

flomnes opened this issue · 8 comments

We would like to use this package for our project. However, version 1.0.1 does not seem to be compatible with mkdocs>=1.1 because of issues #14 / #16.

These bugs have been solved mid-2020. However, no release was made to included these fixes and many others.

Is it possible to publish a release including these fixes ?

It could be version 1.0.2.

Are there any alternatives to this plugin that are about as powerful? I am having increased issues due to this one not being further developed in my projects. Dependencies keep causing build issues and it's not feasible anymore to keep it up. I was wondering if anybody here has moved on to other plugins?

In the mean time you could just use pip install git+https://github.com/comwes/mkpdfs-mkdocs-plugin.git

It seems there are not any alternatives at all. I was wondering if the developer @comwes still alive and breathing on the earth. For years this plugin has no new release for no reason and not a word heard from him.

Hi, we are all in the same problem.

I think the best option is for someone to fork and take care of pipy publishing new versions.

Any interested? :D

I can do that :D The best solution would be to have proper access to this repo and be a contributor here but it can be hard (@comwes any comment about that?).

Although you may not be able to take over this repo without the owner's consent, you may fork it and become a maintainer of this fork.

@flomnes That's the plan

Ok, I've created a fork, made a few changes (seems to work with latest version of weasyprint) and published it to PyPI. Here you can find it: https://github.com/jurgenwigg/mkpdfs2-mkdocs-plugin ( https://pypi.org/project/mkpdfs2-mkdocs/ ).
