CAUTION: The artifactId changed to asciidoctorj starting in 1.5.0.

== Quick win: using the command line interface

If you download from a distribution link above (zip or tar), you can get started straight away from the command line.

First, expand the downloaded file. That puts everything in directory asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}. Within that directory are bin and lib directories. bin contains the executables -- asciidoctorj for Linux and macOS, and asciidoctorj.bat for Windows. lib contains the supporting libraries.

Verify the application runs by specifying the appropriate executable with no parameters; it should display the various run options available (i.e., help).

[source] [subs="specialcharacters,attributes,callouts"]

Linux: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}/bin/asciidoctorj Windows: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}\bin\asciidoctorj.bat

Next, say you want to convert an ASCIIDOC (.adoc) file -- such as this README -- to a pdf.

[source] [subs="specialcharacters,attributes,callouts"]

Linux: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}/bin/asciidoctorj -b pdf README.adoc Windows: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}\bin\asciidoctorj.bat -b pdf README.adoc

Boom! That should convert the README to a PDF named README.pdf. To create a PDF with a different name -- say, READTHIS.pdf -- just add the -o switch:

[source] [subs="specialcharacters,attributes,callouts"]

Linux: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}/bin/asciidoctorj -b pdf -o READTHIS.pdf README.adoc Windows: asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}\bin\asciidoctorj.bat -b pdf -o READTHIS.pdf README.adoc

The rest of the document addresses the asciidoctorj API, for doing more complex conversions from within a JVM-based application.

== Installation

To start using AsciidoctorJ, you need to add the required dependency to the dependency management system of your choice, Maven, Gradle or Apache Ivy. If you don't use a Dependency Management system please check the dependency graph and add all jars in it to your classpath.

// SW: Need functional tests for a java maven project and a java gradle project

[source,xml] [subs="specialcharacters,attributes,callouts"] .Declaring the dependency in a Maven build file (i.e., pom.xml)

[TIP] ==== In addition to using AsciidoctorJ directly, you can invoke it as part of your build using the Maven or Gradle plugin. - {uri-maven-guide}[How to Install and Use the Asciidoctor Maven Plugin] - {uri-gradle-guide}[How to Install and Use the Asciidoctor Gradle Plugin] ==== [NOTE] The versions of Asciidoctor and AsciidoctorJ no longer align since version 1.6.0 of AsciidoctorJ. Please check the corresponding release notes to find out which version of Asciidoctor is packaged if you are embedding the library. If you use the distribution you can call `asciidoctorj --version` to get the version of Asciidoctor that is embedded in AsciidoctorJ. === Windows Installation A {uri-chocolatey}[Chocolatey] package is available which installs the asciidoctorj-{artifact-version}-bin.zip Maven artifact along with a binary shim in %ChocolateyInstall%\bin which lets you run AsciidoctorJ from the command line. ---- C:\> choco install asciidoctorj C:\> where asciidoctorj C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin\asciidoctorj.exe C:\> asciidoctorj -b pdf README.adoc ---- == Using a pre-release version Pre-release versions of `AsciidoctorJ` are published to oss.sonatype.org. The exact location of the repository will be announced. Final releases are released to both Maven Central. Here's how to use a pre-release version in Maven: [source, xml] ---- staging https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/orgasciidoctor-1234 true ---- <1> The exact URL differs for every build == Using a snapshot version Snapshot versions will be published to https://oss.jfrog.org. To use a snapshot version of the the AsciidoctorJ library add this repository to your project: [source,xml] ---- snapshots true false https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/ ---- If you build your project using {uri-gradle}[Gradle] add the repository like this to your build: [source,groovy] ---- repositories { maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/' } } ---- == Development AsciidoctorJ is built using {uri-gradle}[Gradle]. The project is structured as a multi-module build. === Project layout The root folder is the root project and there are several subproject folders, each prefixed with _asciidoctorj-_. Each subproject produces a primary artifact (e.g., jar or zip) and its supporting artifacts (e.g., javadoc, sources, etc). The subprojects are as follows: asciidoctorj-api:: The common API for AsciidoctorJ. Other implementations for different platforms than JRuby may reuse and implement this API. Produces the asciidoctorj-api.jar asciidoctorj:: The main Java bindings for the Asciidoctor RubyGem (asciidoctor) running on JRuby. Also bundles optional RubyGems needed at runtime, such as coderay, tilt, haml and slim. Produces the asciidoctorj jar. asciidoctorj-cli:: `asciidoctorj` command Java components. Produces the asciidoctorj-cli. asciidoctorj-distribution:: Produces the distribution zip that provides the standalone `asciidoctorj` command including Java components, launch scripts and required libraries. asciidoctorj-arquillian-extension:: Bundles an Arquillian extension that allows to inject an Asciidoctor instance or other instances commonly used by Asciidoctor tests into a test case. asciidoctorj-test-support:: Contains some common test classes that are used by multiple other subprojects and the Arquillian extension. The Gradle build is partitioned into the following files: .... build.gradle gradle.properties settings.gradle gradle/ wrapper/ ... eclipse.gradle providedConfiguration.gradle publish.gradle sign.gradle asciidoctorj-arquillian-extension/ build.gradle asciidoctorj-api/ build.gradle asciidoctorj-cli/ build.gradle asciidoctorj-core/ build.gradle asciidoctorj-distribution/ build.gradle asciidoctorj-test-support/ build.gradle .... === Build the project You invoke Gradle on this project using the `gradlew` command (i.e., the Gradle Wrapper). TIP: We strongly recommend that you use Gradle via the https://www.timroes.de/2013/09/12/speed-up-gradle[Gradle daemon]. To clone the project, compile the source and build the artifacts (i.e., jars) locally, run: $ git clone https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctorj cd asciidoctorj ./gradlew assemble You can find the built artifacts in the [path]_asciidoctorj-*/build/libs_ folders. To execute tests when running the build, use: $ ./gradlew build To only execute the tests, run: $ ./gradlew check You can also run tests for a single module: $ cd asciidoctorj-core ../gradlew check To run a single test in the asciidoctorj-core subproject, use: $ ../gradlew -Dsingle.test=NameOfTestClass test To create the distribution, run: $ ./gradlew distZip You can find the distribution in the [path]_asciidoctorj-distribution/build/distributions_ folder. === Develop in an IDE ==== IntelliJ IDEA To import the project into IntelliJ IDEA 14, simply import the project using the import wizard. For more information, see the https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/help/gradle.html[Gradle page] in the IntelliJ IDEA Web Help. ==== Eclipse To open the project in Eclipse, first generate the Eclipse project files: $ cd asciidoctorj-core ./gradlew eclipse Then, import the project into Eclipse using menu:File[Import,General,Existing Project into Workspace]. === Continuous integration Continuous integration for the AsciidoctorJ project is performed by GitHub Actions. You can find recent build results, including the build status of pull requests, on the https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctorj/actions[asciidoctor/asciidoctorj] page. === Release and publish the artifacts To build and publish a release the following properties have to be set, for example in the file ~/.gradle/gradle.properties: .~/.gradle/gradle.properties [source,properties] ---- signing.keyId=... # <1> signing.password=... signing.secretKeyRingFile=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/.gnupg/secring.gpg sdkman_consumer_key=... # <2> sdkman_consumer_token=... sonatypeUsername=... # <3> sonatypePassword=... ---- <1> Settings for signing the artifacts <2> Credentials for publishing a new release to sdkman <3> Credentials for publishing artifacts to oss.sonatype.org The following steps are necessary to build a new release: . Update the version in gradle.properties to a release version, i.e. from `2.4.4-SNAPSHOT` to `2.4.4`. . Build the release with + ---- # ./gradlew clean build ---- . After testing publish all artifacts to a local repository under `build/repos` with + ---- # ./gradlew publishAllPublicationsToLocalRepository -i ---- . When everything is fine publish the artifacts to a staging repository on https://oss.sonatype.org and close the repository: + ---- # ./gradlew publishAllPublicationsToSonatypeRepository -i # ./gradlew closeRepository -i ---- . Visit https://oss.sonatype.org/#stagingRepositories[] and check the staging repository. The artifacts are not published yet. The repository URL shown there can be used for testing this version before publishing to Maven central. . When everything is fine publish the artifacts in the staging repository by clicking the "Release" button. Alternatively you can release it with + ---- # ./gradlew releaseRepository ---- . Publish the new version to sdkman with + ---- # ./gradlew asciidoctorj-distribution:sdkMajorRelease ---- . Commit everything and assign a tag: + ---- # git commit -m "Release v2.x.y" # git tag v2.x.y ---- . Upgrade the version to the next version by changing the version property in gradle.properties to `version=2.x.y+1-SNAPSHOT` and commit: + ---- git commit -m "Prepare next release" ---- == Resources The source code for AsciidoctorJ, including the latest developments and issues, can be found in the project's {uri-repo}[repository] on GitHub.
