Re: [dita-lightweight-dita] Have Published My LwDITA Code Samples this Morning

[Carlos Evia <cevia@vt.edu>]

Jarnoâs good plugin is now integrated in the official OT release but it needs our XDITA files (from the subcommittee repo).Â

Yes, I'm doing that with an XML <map>. No one seems to support an MDITA or HDITA map at this point. I'll figure it out.

Have you used this late-model MDITA/HDITA parser by Jarno that's listed on the "LwDITA-aware tools" page?
https://github.com/jelovirt/org.lwdita

I installed it and can get it to run, but I realized I'm not sure what it is trying to do. Is it meant to be called by the HTML5 plugin, for example? Or does it do something by itself?

I think the preliminary LwDITA support in the OT needs a DITA (or XDITA) map to reference HDITA or MDITA topics.Â

Keith, I have a question. Did you publish any of these to HTML, PDF, etc? I've been trying to get Oxygen to publish my own lwdita samples, MDITA and HDITA, and I have not succeeded yet.

Plain markdown works in Oxygen if I set up the <map> right, but publishing fails with MDITA and HDITA.

This is fantastic Keith, and perfect timing for the presentation I'm doing on lwdita. I'm stealing it.

Just wanted to pass along that earlier this morning I published a short piece on DITAWriter.com (http://www.ditawriter.com/ditawriters-lightweight-dita-code-samples/) where I talk about the set of LwDITA code samples posted to GitHub.

Just mentioning it here as I am hoping that the people on this list can help get the word out about it.

Cheers!
