asciidoctor: Convert a specific `.adoc` file to HTML (the default output format).
$ asciidoctor ${filename-adoc}
try on your machine
The command asciidoctor ${filename-adoc}
is a command-line instruction that uses the asciidoctor
command to convert AsciiDoc files into HTML or other supported formats.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
asciidoctor
: This is the main command that executes the AsciiDoctor tool. AsciiDoctor is a text processor and publishing tool used to convert AsciiDoc documents into different outputs.${filename-adoc}
: This is a placeholder for the actual filename and extension of the AsciiDoc file that you want to convert. The${filename-adoc}
syntax suggests that you should replace it with the actual filename and extension of the AsciiDoc file, for example,document.adoc
. The.adoc
extension is commonly used for AsciiDoc files.
When you run this command by substituting ${filename-adoc}
with the actual filename, the AsciiDoctor tool will process the specified AsciiDoc file and convert it into the desired output format, such as HTML.
For example, if you have an AsciiDoc file named document.adoc
and you execute the command asciidoctor document.adoc
, it will convert the document.adoc
file into the default output format, which is usually HTML, and you will get an document.html
file as the result.
