Multiple Revision entry - Docbook

[rogerpt]

Hi,

I have tried, but I am not able to insert more than one revision entry when I convert it to docbook. There is any workaround to do this ?

Thanks in advance,

[Jmm]

Hello

I am not near my pc so I don't have the details. The trick is to use an xml include file (with the same name as the main asciidoc). This xml should/can contain the extra docbook fields like title page media data, revisions, etc. There is a note about that somewhere in the docs. Let me know if you need more info

Hi,

Jmm thanks for you reply.

I think you're talking about the following instructions:

https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/193

However, following that link I only can include the revision history in the appendix, when I want to have a list in the begin of the document.

Thanks.

The placement of the different components when using Docbook is controlled by the customization layer and the title page setup in particular.

Hey Jmm,

I am completely aware of that. But what I want is to have multiple revisions entries inside <book><info>....</info> .

With the methods described on the link that I posted, the revisions are placed in the glossary or on the preface. I am just asking if there is way to put all those entries in the book info ?

Thanks.

[Jmm]

Ok. I start to get the picture. I'll show you tonight how I proceed and see if that fits your needs.

Hello,

(sorry for late reply, been more busy than expected)

This is how I proceed.

Lets say that my master document is "mydoc.adoc". I add the property ":docinfo:" at the top and create a document called "mydoc-docinfo.xml" (filename with suffix "-docinfo.xml".

The xml file contains valid bookinfo or articleinfo elements. 

This is how I define the multiple revision history:

    <revhistory>

      <revision>

        <revnumber>0.01</revnumber>

        <date>2011-12-14</date>

        <authorinitials>Jmm</authorinitials>

        <revremark>First draft</revremark>

      </revision>

      <revision>

        <revnumber>0.02</revnumber>

        <date>2011-12-27</date>

        <authorinitials>Jmm</authorinitials>

        <revremark>

          Major restructuring, splitting Functional and Non-Functional

          Requirements into separate chapters.

        </revremark>

      </revision>

      <revision>

        <revnumber>0.03</revnumber>

        <date>2012-01-23</date>

        <authorinitials>mpo</authorinitials>

        <revremark>

          Rework Functional and Non-Functional Requirements.

        </revremark>

      </revision>

    </revhistory>

Hope that it helps.
