AsciiDoc.py
===========
[](https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc-py3/actions?query=workflow%3ATest+branch%3Amaster)
[](https://codecov.io/gh/asciidoc-py/asciidoc-py)
__This branch is tracking the alpha, in-progress 10.x release. For the stable 9.x code,
please go to the [9.x branch](https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc-py3/tree/9.x)!__
AsciiDoc is a text document format for writing notes, documentation,
articles, books, ebooks, slideshows, web pages, man pages and blogs.
AsciiDoc files can be translated to many formats including HTML, PDF,
EPUB, man page.
AsciiDoc.py is a legacy processor for this syntax, handling an older
rendition of AsciiDoc. As such, this will not properly handle the
[current AsciiDoc specification](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.asciidoc).
It is suggested that unless you specifically require the AsciiDoc.py
toolchain, you should find a processor that handles the modern AsciiDoc
syntax.
AsciiDoc.py is highly configurable: both the AsciiDoc source file syntax
and the backend output markups (which can be almost any type of
SGML/XML markup) can be customized and extended by the user.
## Prerequisites
AsciiDoc.py is written in Python so you need a Python interpreter
(version 3.5 or later) to execute asciidoc(1). You can install Python using the
package manager for your OS or by downloading it from the official Python
website http://www.python.org.
## Obtaining AsciiDoc.py
Documentation and installation instructions are on the AsciiDoc.py website
https://asciidoc.org/. Additionally, for 10.x, you can install it using pip:
```
pip3 install asciidoc
```
## Tools
Current AsciiDoc.py version tested on Ubuntu 18.04 with:
- Python 3.6.5
- DocBook XSL Stylesheets 1.76.1
- xsltproc (libxml 20706, libxslt 10126 and libexslt 815).
- w3m 0.5.2
