I've been putting together a full-featured pdf for a project that has numerous wavedrom diagrams as an important part of the documentation.
I've gotten other kinds of diagrams to work for both asciidoctor and the (old) ruby asciidoctor-pdf. When I try to get asciidoctor-pdf to process the wavedrom scripts, it gives me an error message. I am using ruby 2.7.2 because I understand that's what's needed for ascidoctor-pdf: Using /Users/blahblah/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.7.2 Here is the version of asciidoctor-diagram that I have: asciidoctor-diagram-2.1.2 Here is the error: asciidoctor: ERROR: tables_graphics.adoc: line 271: Failed to generate image: Could not find the 'WaveDromEditor.app', 'wavedrom-editor.app' executable in PATH; add it to the PATH or specify its location using the 'WaveDromEditorApp' document attribute I have actually tried manually downloading wavedrom-editor and adding a path, however the downloadable app is not intended for that specific use. The wavedrom CLI is also downloadable and can be used to convert individually listed scripts, AFAIK. I have gotten into editing some scripts but don't know quite how to handle this. With the volume of wavedrom diagrams that we need in our docs, we need to be able to get the wavedrom scripts processed jus like the other diagrams can be processed. I can see that there is some information in asciidoctor-diagram about a WavedromBlockMacroProcessor Can anyone help? Thanks so much, in advance. - Elisa |
Does anyone know how to communicate with those who implemented asciidoctor-diagram?
I'm working on a project in which must process numerous wavedrom scripts. The output is a custom pdf using asciidoctor-pdf with frontmatter, running headers and footers, footnotes, index, and other features. We have asciidoctor-diagram working perfectly for other kinds of diagrams. However, pointing to the wavedrom-editor.app doesn't work. How was the integration implemented and tested? |

Thanks for pointing me to the Zulip discussion, problem solved.
Just a note, while the the links from https://docs.asciidoctor.org/diagram-extension/latest/ point to Wavedrom itself, I didn't find information on how to install the requirements that support the wavedrom plugin as follows (for mac): ``` brew install node npm install -g wavedrom-cli ``` Check that wavedrom-cli is in the path (this should display the help): ``` wavedrom-cli ``` The error message that results when asciidoctor-diagram doesn't find the path for wavedrom-cli actually mentions wavedrom-editor.app, which does exist as a separate downloadable. Perhaps the documentation could be tweaked so that new asciidoctor-diagram users that want to enable wavedrom, don't fall into the same rabbit hole that I did? :-) If you have any questions please let me know. |

Elisa, I think that's a great idea! I encourage you to click "Edit this Page" and propose those changes. I'd be happy to test and review.
