Images are on the remote sever and I don't want to download them with every
run. Images don't change, changed ones have different ID. Encapsualating
jpgs into pdfs might be the right conversion, because pdf inclusion is
fast, right? So I probably answered myself: write a conversion jpg -> pdf
without any changes to the image.

Conversion is costly and that is why caching makes sense there. What is the 
benefit of caching (i.e., simply copying the file to a different directory) 
when there is no conversion?

There is also

which simply mirrors the bitbucket repo.

These repos contain just the contents on texmf-context, but not the binaries 
(or sources of binaries). You need the binaries (and fonts!) to get a working 
installation.

Re: [NTG-context] names of cached images

[Jano Kula]

Hello again,

likely a bug and one question. Using this code with lmtx:

\starttext
\externalfigure[mill][width=40mm,cache=./first,conversion=gray.pdf] %
mill...
\externalfigure[mill][width=40mm,cache=.,conversion=gray.pdf]   %
m_k_i_v_mill...
\externalfigure[mill][width=40mm,cache=./second]% no
visible caching
\stoptext

*First two figures*
Chached image in the ./cache subdirectory has a lmtx name without prefix,
the cached image in the current directory has mkiv syntax with  m_k_i_v_
prefix.

*Third figure*
The images are cached to a specified directory, only when some conversion
is used. I'd like to cache images without any transformation. Is there any
conversion which doesn't alter the figure, just caches it? Is new
conversion type needed? Or is there other way to force caching without
conversion?

Thank you,
Jano

In several articles I get a problem, and I can’t (yet) reproduce it in a MWE:

The text in a two-column columnset suddenly breaks at the end of a left column, 
the end is missing.

Here’s an example PDF:
https://sedna.fiee.net/f/24d54a952b0243a98775/?dl=1

What could case that?

One option you might try, if your cooperative has a web-server

This works because "install.sh" can have a "--server" parameter 
supplied. By default it goes to lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx but 
if you were to copy the install-lmtx directory and host the copy on 
your own server at the same path, then you could 'freeze' your LMTX 
version until you were ready to change.



Thanks for this hint.

This might solve one more problem. We would like to pin the installation 
to a version that is known too work.


BTW: Are there plans to use a GitHub repository or an alternative to it? 
As that would ease pinning a bit.

All uploads end up here too alsk kind of an archive:

official: https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/src/beta/
experimental : https://github.com/mojca/context2

The official oen can be checked out, the experimental one is a 
playground because for quite a while Mojca and I have some ideas for a 
more extensive install on github which would then involve:


-- core context code (with luametatex in source tree too: 
tex/texmf-context in the distribution


-- the minimal set of resources: tex/texmf in the distribution

-- binaries (which is the more complex part)

-- modules: texmf/modules

So, basically several repositories alongside (totaling to the amoutn we 
now have in the zips). We then have doif-it-yourself-zips, the garden 
installer, the lmtx self updater and install-from-github as 
alternatives. I have a sort of proof of concept for it. We looked into 
the binary bit and things have changed a bit over the years so maybe 
it's more doable now.


One of the complications is always that it depends on helper programs:

- zips are easy as all systems have it (ok, some linux distributions 
don't install unzip but one can easily add it)


- the garden install needs a matching rsync (we need to ship on for 
windows and sometimes a mismatch will require an update on other 
platforms); it reminds me that we have to swap the cygwin bins by mingw 
bins; anyway. one problem is that organizations block the port


- the lmtx installer needs a (luametatex) binary which is no big deal; 
it uses http and there might be organizations that demand https and ssl 
keeps evolving so in the long run it can fail to update older 
installations (it anyway means that we need to also ship e.g. curl or 
libcurl (the later works ok for us); no big deal but more work)


- a github install demands that git is installed; that itself is a big 
piece of software (a small git binary for windows is already 200 MB due 
to all the dependencies while actually we only need a stupid fetch); the 
gh binary is still 25M but might be a solution, apart from the fact that 
we then expect users to have a recent bin ... will a 5 year old 
installation update?); of course users can also decide to completely do 
it themselves (check out etc) but for a local project-specific run one 
doesn't want all those gigs


So, each approach has pros and cons, and we need to prevent lock into 
some specific technology.

Chicago is certainly not a bad choice for this. It's probably one of the most 
complete footnote specifications out there. (I knows multiple variants though, 
so you need to settle for one or support both.)
One thing to be aware of is that Chicago is utterly complex. Other styles like 
MHRA are a bit simpler. This complexity might be an advantage and a 
disadvantage at the same time. It may be hard to get this completely right. The 
already mentioned biblatex-chicago package shows how much is involved. OTOH, if 
you get this right that should cover almost everything that might come up in 
note based styles.

Re: [NTG-context] Rolling out a pandoc-context publication workflow in an organization

[denis.maier]

Hi,
in case you don't know it already, for your use-case you might also be 
interested in this workflow:
https://oa-pub.hos.tuhh.de/de/

It's a publishing workflow for OA-Journals. IIUC, the interesting part (in this 
context here) is that they use Gitlab, author in markdown, and whenever you 
push a commit, Gitlab actions are used to produce the final output. I think 
they use Pandoc and LaTeX with Docker Images, but maybe it could be possible to 
set something similar up with ConTeXt...

One option you might try, if your cooperative has a web-server available to 
editors, is to store your own ConTeXt repository. That way you can update the 
LMTX version when you are ready to.

This works because "install.sh" can have a "--server" parameter supplied. By 
default it goes to lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx but if you were to copy the install-lmtx 
directory and host the copy on your own server at the same path, then you could 'freeze' your LMTX 
version until you were ready to change.



Thanks for this hint.

This might solve one more problem. We would like to pin the installation 
to a version that is known too work.


BTW: Are there plans to use a GitHub repository or an alternative to it? 
As that would ease pinning a bit.

Re: [NTG-context] columnsets messed up

Hi,
I’m working at the current CG journal whose layout uses columnsets. They aren’t 
usable any more. Same in current LMTX and MkIV.

- the first line can start one or more lines lower
- then the same number of lines is printed over each other at the bottom
- it gets worse with footnotes (looks like their space isn’t considered at all)
- if the column set doesn’t start at the top of the page, the second column does

\definecolumnset[cgjcolset][n=2]

Personally I'd never use columnsets for anything else than very 
controlled situations because that's what they were made for. Not to be 
mixed with the normal pagebuilder. So, first of all you need to operate 
on the grid (i can probably get rid of some side effects and maigt even 
force that but not now). Then, \chapter itself flushes pages so that 
should be disabled.


Here is a simple example:

\setuplayout[lines=40,grid=yes]

\definecolumnset[cgjcolset][n=2]

\starttext

\definecolumnsetspan
 [chapter]
 [background=color,
  backgroundcolor=red]

\setuphead[chapter][page=no,after=,before=]

\startcolumnset[cgjcolset]

\startcolumnsetspan[chapter]
\chapter{This is a chapter about column sets}
\stopcolumnsetspan

\dorecurse{20}{
\samplefile{sapolsky}\par
}

\stopcolumnset

\stoptext
