Cannot get asciidoctor-fopub to run offline

asciidoctor-fopub works fine for me as long as I have network connectivity. Offline however, it fails with error messages:

Apr 06, 2017 11:20:53 AM org.apache.fop.cli.InputHandler error
SEVERE: javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: Had IO Exception with stylesheet file: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/docbook.xsl
Apr 06, 2017 11:20:53 AM org.apache.fop.cli.InputHandler error
SEVERE: javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: Had IO Exception with stylesheet file: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/highlighting/common.xsl

I thought the presence of the catalog.xml file(s) would permit offline operation? And moreover does the failure mean it fetches those stylesheets on every run?

That's supposed to be the purpose of this file:

https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-fopub/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/fop/cli/InputHandler.java

For some reason, it's not being used in your setup. Perhaps it stopped working at some point? I'm not sure.

The problem comes down to the fact that Apache FOP sets up the XML resolver incorrectly. (See https://github.com/apache/fop/pull/1) As a result, it tries to fetch stuff from the internet. InputHandler is supposed to fix it. Perhaps you can figure out why it isn't working.

Re: Cannot get asciidoctor-fopub to run offline

Ok, I think I know what the problem is - it's Windows specific. The build/bin/fopub.bat uses APP_HOME to initialize DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS before APP_HOME is set. Thus xml.catalog.files is incorrectly set. Moving the lines

@rem Add default JVM options here. You can also use JAVA_OPTS and FOPUB_OPTS to pass JVM options to this script.
set DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS="-Dxml.catalog.files=%APP_HOME%/catalog.xml"

to be after the line

set APP_HOME=%DIRNAME%..

seems to fix the problem.

Now the question is - the build directory is not in the source repository so where should this fix actually go in the repository?

PS Happily did not have to go poking into Java code! Have no experience with it.
