ASCIIDOC plugin by dropcase

I’ve been wanting the same for a while. I just started working on this - it uses AsciiDoc’s js library and very basic functionality so far:

So far it (mostly) renders code blocks that start with ```asciidoc and will show .adoc files in the vault, plus allow editing them. Reading mode shows a dataview error for the block, still have to sort that out. I’m not a developer so much as a code wrangler so it’s slow progress.

I’m planning on updating the README to include functionality status for different areas and features for AsciiDoc as well.

If anyone wants to contribute (code, content, or other), help is very much welcome!

Hello @dropcase. Just for the information – I’ve also been trying for some time to make a convenient plugin to support asciidoc in obsidian. My plugin now supports editing and viewing files, searching for substrings and links to other pages. The plugin can be installed via the community plugins page (the plugin name is asciidoctor-editor). GitHub - dzruyk/obsidian-asciidoc: Obsidian asciidoc editor plugin. Anyway, the more plug-ins there are, the better!

Oh that’s much better! My take is to have yours be the go-to and focus on one plugin to help drive the AsciiDoc movement.

I only made a bit more progress than when I posted, yours seems like it’s handling a lot more already. I updated the README to point to your repo!

Hopefully we can get more direct support from the Obsidian side and it’d be a killer feature (even if it’s a smaller userbase for now).
