<div dir="ltr">Hello Forge folks,<div><br></div><div>this is Alex, I am the developer of AsciidoctorJ, the interface between Ruby part of Asciidoctor and Java. There is one project called Hyla <a href="https://github.com/cmoulliard/hyla">https://github.com/cmoulliard/hyla</a> (written in Ruby) which is something like a console for working with Asciidoctor. Basically what I am going to do is something similar but for Java.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What I want is create some commands which allows you to create an Asciidoctor project for example with DZSlides structure, so for example user can do:</div><div><br></div><div>$>asciidoctor install template dzslides http://......... #this command download a template from internet and install it inside forge directory.</div>
<div><br clear="all"><div>$>asciidoctor create dzslides /home/alex/mypresentation #this command basically uncompress the downloaded file inside the destination directory</div><div><br></div><div>$>asciidoctor render #this command renders the project.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Then as you can see it is a very lightweight operations, basically download something from internet, uncompress it, and run a compilation command. Of course maybe in future I can add something like push to github-pages, ....</div>
<div><br></div><div>But my original idea was to usig Crest (project from Tomitribe) because I don't need many things provided by (Forge 1), but after Forge 2 is released (which means user can install the required addons instead of having some predefined addons), </div>
<div><br></div><div>I send this email because Lincoln asked it in Twitter, so I don't know what are your thoughts about this. </div><div><br></div><div>BTW one thing that worries me a lot is about using JBoss Modules because historically has complicated a bit our life with classloader issues and JRuby, but of course may be it is time to give a try with Forge.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thank you so much,</div><div>Alex.</div>-- <br>+----------------------------------------------------------+<br> Alex Soto Bueno <br> <a href="http://www.lordofthejars.com" target="_blank">www.lordofthejars.com</a><br>
