Svgbob plugin for mdbook
Svgbob-based preprocessor for mdbook transform your ascii diagrams into a svg.
This renders a code-block marked bob
into neat svg diagrams and inline it into the output.
Usage
Firstly add the following to your book's manifest file
(usually book.toml
)
[preprocessor.svgbob] # all fields by default
See config for more information.
Add some ascii graphics:
chapter_1.md
```bob
0 3
*-------* +y
1 /| 2 /| ^
*-------* | |
| |4 | |7 | ◄╮
| *-----|-* ⤹ +-----> +x
|/ |/ / ⤴
*-------* v
5 6 +z
```
Build your book and open:
mdbook build
open book/index.html

stroke_width = 2.0
scale = 8.0
enhance_circuitries = true
include_backdrop = true
include_styles = true

Contribution
Contributions are appreciated. Don't hesitate to participate to discussions in the issues, propose new features and ask for help.
Useful hint for one-command builds crate + book:
- add
command
to the manifest:
# book.toml
[preprocessor.svgbob]
command = "cargo run --manifest-path /path/to/mdbook-svgbob/Cargo.toml --quiet"
- So then you only need to rebuild the book. Run something like this:
RUST_LOG=mdbook_svgbob=trace mdbook build
