Generate customized scenario with profiling conditions (webhelp wml with DITA-OT)

[jmanier]

Hello,

Using profiling conditions on a scenario, we don't know how to generate online our customized scenario through plugin webhelp with DITA-OT ? (https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_webhelp/d ... bhelp.html)
How can we call the specific scenario created with profiling conditions?

Thanks.

Regards,

Jeremy

Hi,

If you have transformation scenario already configured and you want to run the same transformation from command line you can use the DITA-OT dita command.

Code: Select all

dita --input=path/to/ditamap_to_pubish.ditamap 

     --format=webhelp-responsive \

     --filter=path/to/filter.ditaval

     --output=path/to/output/folder  \

     --propertyfile=transformation.properties

To specify a profiling condition from command line, you can use the --filter switch.

Thank you a lot but I still have a problem.

I have a transformation scenario with a profiling condition : audience="self"
What's the equivalent of the ditaval, is "<prop action="include" att="audience" val="self"/>" ok ?

Because when I'm using the profiling condition (in filters scenario), it works but when i'm using the ditaval file (in filters scenario), it doesn't work. I mean, the generation is working but the filters from the ditaval are not correct.

I guess I've done something wrong but I don't know what..

Hi,

With DITAVAL files, the default action is to include anything:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/dita/1.3/spec ... l-val.html

so you probably need to define something like:

Code: Select all

<val>

<prop action="exclude" att="audience"/>

<prop action="include" att="audience" val="self"/>

</val>

to define an exclude for any value for @audience but to include only the specific "self" value.
