• No scripts used (no highlight.js or custom scripts)

• Supports Antora and Asciidoctor standalone

• Generates treeview based on:

  • symbol based treeview (#, *) or custom symbol
  • ascii-tree (using tree command on Linux or Windows)
  • autodetects if ascii-tree parser should be used or symbol parser

• Calculates the right icons for folders and files based on:

  • extensions
  • file names
  • folder names
  • language ids

• Uses the same icons as VSCode (uses https://github.com/PKief/vscode-material-icon-theme)

• Adds styles to the document

• Supports dark and light mode

• Uses different icons for dark and light mode

• Supports callouts / conums

• Supports different ways of retrieving the icons:

  • jsdelivr (default) => downloads from CDN
  • embedded => embeds the icons into the css as data uri
  • antora => copies icons into UI catalog
  • <custom_path> => configure your own path or url

Installation

npm i asciidoctor-treeview

Register extension

Asciidoctor

Asciidoctor

const asciidoctor = require('@asciidoctor/core')()
const asciidoctorTreeView = require('asciidoctor-treeview')
const registry = asciidoctor.Extensions.create()
asciidoctorTreeView.register(registry)

📌 NOTE
The needed css file is added via DocInfoProcessor.

Antora

Antora Playbook

antora:
  extensions:
    - require: "asciidoctor-treeview"

⚠️ WARNING
Do not add the asciidoctor-treeview to the asciidoc.extensions. It will not work because then the needed css will not be added to the site.

Add handlebars template

You have to change 1 file in your Antora UI bundle or by overwriting it via supplemental-ui:

• add {{> treeview-styles }} to partials/head-styles.hbs

If you do not want to change your UI bundle or when you use the default ui bundle you can simply put the following lines into supplemental-ui/partials/head-styles.hbs next to your antora playbook:

head-styles.hbs

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{{uiRootPath}}}/css/site.css">
{{> treeview-styles }}

{{> treeview-styles }} will be replaced with the content of the file treeview-styles.hbs that provided by this extension.

treeview-styles.hbs

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{{uiRootPath}}}/css/treeview.css">

The treeview.css file contains some treeview specific styles that are needed to render the code blocks correctly and overrides some styles defined in the Antora UI Default.

VSCode

VSCode

// add this to .asciidoctor/lib/asciidoctor-treeview.js when you have turned on the extension
module.exports = require('asciidoctor-treeview')

HowTos

• I want to mark a line as folder even when it does not have children
  Put a / at the end of the name. Then that line will be marked as a folder.

  .
  # folder/
  # second-folder/

  ---

• I want to add comments to a line
  Put // at the end of the line. Then that line will be marked as a comment.
