rst2html5slides
===============

    rst2html5slides extends rst2html5_ to translate a reStructuredText file
    into a web presentation.

Rationale
=========

Presentations based on web frameworks such as `impress.js`_, `jmpress.js`_ and `deck.js`_
are great alternatives to traditional software packages:

#. HTML, CSS and javascript files are plain text files and thus
   they are friendly to version control systems,
   making easy to follow and visualize their changes between revisions;
#. There is a separation between content and presentation design
#. They have new and great visual effects such as slide transitions and positional effects
#. A web presentation is portable. It runs on any modern browser

On the other hand,
creating presentations directly in HTML is painful.
A better approach is to use another markup language that is easier to read and write,
and then translate the text to HTML.

I could have listed or cooked up a few reasons to justify reStructuredText_ as the best choice.
The truth is that the best markup language is the one you already know.
So, if you also use reStructuredText in other projects or contexts,
then :literal:`rst2html5slides` is perfect for you to create your presentations.


Features
========

* CSS can be extended or overwritten by adding new stylesheets;
* Slides can be positioned manually or automatically through pre-defined functions
  (:literal:`linear`, :literal:`grid` and :literal:`grid-rotate`);


Installation
============

.. code-block:: bash

    pip install rst2html5slides


Basic Usage
===========

.. code-block:: bash

    $ rst2html5slides [OPTIONS] SOURCE [DESTINATION]


If no destination is given, then the presentation is written to the *stdout*.
Else, the presentation and all related files (images, CSS, scripts etc.)
are written into the specified path.

Options:

--presentation=<framework>
                        Choose a web presentation framework for the output.
                        Possible values are impress.js, jmpress.js, deck.js,
                        None. Default is impress.js.
--distribution=<function_name>
                        Specify the name of the slide distribution function.
                        Options are "linear", "grid" or "grid-rotate". An
                        additional parameter can be specified along with the
                        name such as in "grid_rotate  3".
--increment=<increment>
                        Specify the value of the increment used by the
                        distribution functions. To specify different values
                        for X and Y increments, separate them by space.
                        Example "1000 500". Default value is 1600 for X and Y
                        increments.
--manual-slide-id       Disable slide automatic identification based on title.
--deck-selector=<deck_selector>
                        Specify the tag, id and/or class to replace the
                        default (and non-standard) <deck> tag used to surround
                        the slides. Follow the pattern tag#id.class (such as a
                        CSS selector). Examples: div, div#impress, div.deck-
                        container, article#impress.impress-not-supported
--slide-selector=<slide_selector>
                        Specify the tag, id and/or class to replace the
                        default (and non-standard) <slide> tag used to
                        surround each slide.Follow the pattern tag#id.class
                        (such as a CSS selector)Examples: div.slide, section,
                        div.step

.. tip::

    All rst2html5_ options can be used with :literal:`rst2html5slides` such as
    :literal:`--stylesheet` and :literal:`--script`.

.. note::

    :literal:`--deck-selector` and :literal:`--slide-selector` are only required for advanced usage.
    See the full documentation for additional information.


Example
=======

:literal:`simple.rst`:

.. code-block:: rst

    .. title:: Simple Presentation | rst2html5slides
    .. meta::
      :author: André Felipe Dias

    .. class:: cover

    Presentation
    ============

    Author
    ------

    Topic 1
    =======

    * item A
    * item B

    Topic 2
    =======

    * item C
    * item D


To translate it to a  presentation located at :literal:`/tmp/slides`,
use this command:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ rst2html5slides simple.rst /tmp/slides


The generated file is:

.. code-block:: html

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/slideshow.css">

rst2html5slides copies all referenced files (images, additional scripts and css)
to the destination path:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ ls -R /tmp/slides
    /tmp/slides:
    css  js  simple.html

    /tmp/slides/css:
    slideshow.css

    /tmp/slides/js:
    greensock  jquery.min.js  slide_animations.js  slideshow.js  video_animation.js



.. note::

    You can customize your presentation adding CSS files, scripts or
    changing the default template.
    See the full documentation for more information.
