Gradle plugin to apply common build logic to a slideshow project. Compilation from Markdown to HTML5 using Pandoc and reveal.js.
Java must be installed.
This plugin requires Gradle v6.2 or higher.
See here for usage instructions.
When applying the plugin, the compileReveal task must be configured with a valid markdown source file:
compileReveal {
markdownFile = file('src/source.md')
// optionally, YAML header in separate file:
headerFile = file('src/header.yaml')
// optionally, additional assets:
assetFiles = files('some/asset.txt', tasks.findByName('assetProducingTask')) +
fileTree('src').include('assets/**')
// optionally, enable ToC and maybe set depth (default: 1)
tableOfContents = true
tableOfContentsDepth = 2
// note that the ToC title heading will be empty; set `toc-title` to the desired heading in the YAML header file...
// optionally, filters and/or environment variables for Pandoc exec, e.g.,:
pandocFilters = ['mermaid-filter']
pandocEnvironment = ['MERMAID_FILTER_FORMAT': 'svg']
}Note that Pandoc filters such as mermaid-filter must be installed separately.
The generated slideshow will be created in compileReveal.destDir (default: layout.buildDirectory.dir('slides'))
