asciidoctor-stylesheets v0.7.1

Asciidoctor stylesheets

This project is a factory for stylesheets that can be used to style the HTML generated by an AsciiDoc processor (specifically the html5 backend). In addition to being a general purpose AsciiDoc stylesheet generator, it is used to generate the default stylesheet that is bundled with Asciidoctor.

Usage

$ npm i asciidoctor-stylesheets

All the stylesheets will be available in the node_modules/asciidoctor-stylesheets/css.

TIP: If you are using Sass, you can import the Sass files from the node_modules/asciidoctor-stylesheets/sass directory.

Setup and compilation

To setup the project, make sure you have Node.js and npm (or yarn) installed. Next, run npm to install the required dependencies:

$ npm i

Once you have the dependencies installed, you can build the stylesheets.

Build the stylesheets

To build the stylesheets, run:

$ npm run build

The stylesheets are compiled from the Sass source files in the sass/ folder and written to the css/ folder. You can then reference the stylesheets in css/ from your HTML file.

Create sample documents

First, create a sample AsciiDoc file, such as:

= Introduction to AsciiDoc
Doc Writer <doc@example.com>

A preface about http://asciidoc.org[AsciiDoc].

== First Section

* item 1
* item 2

[source,ruby]
puts "Hello, World!"

TIP: Alternatively, you can use this README as an example.

Then, use AsciiDoc or Asciidoctor to generate HTML that uses one of the stylesheets from the +css/+ directory:

$ asciidoctor -a stylesheet=./css/asciidoctor.css sample.adoc

If you want to activate syntax highlighting in the code, add this argument:

-a source-highlighter=highlightjs

Now just browse to +sample.html+ in your browser and checkout the result!

External preview

You may want to preview sample HTML files on another computer or device. To do that, you need to serve them through a web server. You can quickly serve HTML files in the root directory of the project using the following command:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 4242

Create a new theme

Themes go in the sass/ folder. To create a new theme (e.g., hipster), start by creating two new files:

sass/hipster.scss

• Imports the theme settings, which includes default variables and resets
• Imports the AsciiDoc components
• Defines any explicit customizations

sass/settings/_hipster.scss

• Sets variables that customize the AsciiDoc CSS components

Here's a minimal version of sass/hipster.scss:

@import "settings/hipster";
@import "components/asciidoc";
@import "components/awesome-icons";

NOTE: You don't have to include the underscore prefix when importing files.

You can add any explicit customizations below the import lines.

The variables you can set in sass/settings/_hipster.scss are defined in the global settings and imports for the AsciiDoc components.

Happy theming!
