The AsciiDoc plugin architecture is an extension mechanism that allows
additional backends, filters and themes to be
added to AsciiDoc.
-
A plugin is a Zip file containing an AsciiDoc backend, filter or
theme (configuration files, stylesheets, scripts, images).
-
The
asciidoc(1) --backend, --filter and --theme command-line
options are used to load and manage plugins. Each of these options
responds to the plugin management install, list, remove and
build commands.
-
The plugin management command names are reserved and cannot be used
for filter, backend or theme names.
-
The plugin Zip file name always begins with the backend, filter or
theme name.
Plugin commands and conventions are documented in the asciidoc(1) man
page. You can find lists of plugins on the
AsciiDoc website.
