Request for build instructions (release?) #4

Open GrahamHannington opened 6 years ago

GrahamHannington commented 6 years ago

Could you please provide (say, in the readme of this repo), or point me to, instructions for building the plugins from this repo source?

While I want to be able to do this myself, you could take pity on me, and any other DITA-OT users who want to try these plugins, by providing a built release here on GitHub. It's just a suggestion: I understand that you will have other, higher priorities.

Or... I say this because I see prebuilt JAR files in this ("source") repo... was my half-awake first attempt last night (#3) essentially correct? Can I indeed simply drop this repo as-is into the DITA-OT plugins directory, and then run dita -install? Should that "just work"?

The plugin directories can be dropped directly in as you suggested. The JAR files are external libraries required to make the build work -- ideally those would not be in this repo at all, and instead would be pulled in with a release build, but I haven't had much time to work on that.
