About this repo

Docker Automated Docker Build

Use this repo to generate HTML-with-PDF documentation for arbitrary collections of Asciidoc and Markdown files.

Conversion is handled by the separate image gerald1248/asciidoctor, which derives from the upstream image asciidoctor/asciidoctor, adding pandoc and charting plugins.

To document your own projects, consider including your own Git repositories as git modules in subfolders or simply copy the contents of this folder to the root folder of your repository, taking care not to overwrite files you care about.

The generated HTML page consolidates all images in a single images folder and ends with a download link to the PDF.

Getting started

Start by adjusting the file values.json. It contains the title of your project as it will appear at the top of the HTML output and on the title page of the PDF version. Another key is filename, which determines the name of the PDF outputl. (The web page always takes index.html.)

Configuration
{
  "title": "Continuous documentation",
  "filename": "continuous-documentation",
  "substitutions": { (1)
    "Fibonacci": "Iccanobif"
  }
}

  1. This lookup table helps with cross-references and resource paths that would otherwise not be linked correctly. Keys and values represent find and replace expressions.
