Paul Merlin commented on ZEST-149:
----------------------------------

There's basic support for chunked output in the Asciidoctor extensions lab: 
https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-extensions-lab/blob/master/lib/multipage-html5-converter.rb

Two issues are blocking the usage of this extension:
- https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-extensions-lab/issues/68
- https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-extensions-lab/issues/69



> Migrate documentation to AsciiDoctor

>                 Key: ZEST-149
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEST-149
>             Project: Zest
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Niclas Hedhman
>            Priority: Minor
>
> AsciiDoctor is a more modern AsciiDoc processing system.
> Since most of our documentation is in AsciiDoc markdown format, this should 
> be a relatively easy process.
> There is a Gradle plugin;
> http://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoctor-gradle-plugin/
> Hurdles;
> 1. SNIPPET support won't work as AsciiDoctor is built out of Ruby, whereas 
> the old AsciiDoc toolchain is in Python. The SNIPPET plugin needs to be 
> re-written, but I think it can be done in Java.
> 2. dev-status.xml processing. Same thing, something needs to be done.
> 3. At the moment a large DocBook document is generate, and then transformed 
> using XSLT into a chunk per web page. It seems that the AsciiDoctor approach 
> would be to generate HTML5 directly and that the "chunking" is done with the 
> source files directly. Need to investigate this a bit more.
