Makefile to process all Asciidoctor files in a directory

·260 words·2 mins
I write most of my documents (blog posts, documentation, recipes and so on) with Asciidoctor. Everything is organized in Git repositories. During GPN 19 (Gulaschprogrammiernacht) I showed how to build html and pdf with a Gitlab CI/CD pipeline. That’s quite handy, but lots of documents I build, I just need locally. So today I played with WSL2 and a Makefile to build all Asciidoctor files in a directory.

For GPN19 I prepared a second talk on Documentation with any Editor. The talk was based on a previous one from Froscon 13, but the pipeline tooling changed.

During my talk at FrOSCon I wasn’t sure how to install Asciidoctor on Windows. So I tried on a Windows 10 VM. When you want to use Asciidoctor on a Windows desktop, you need to download the Rubyinstaller and install it. Now you can open a administrative command window and install with gem install asciidoctor.
