Hi Frank,

The DITA OT project file itself defines inside it the deliverables it produces and the parameters:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/28.1/ug-editor/topics/publishing_with_a_dita_ot_project_file.html

If you open a DITA OT project file and use the "Configure Transformation Scenarios" toolbar button you can choose the "Publish DITA-OT Project (all deliverables)" predefined scenario to publish all its deliverables for example.

For example the Oxygen XML Blog is published using this DITA OT project file:

https://github.com/oxygenxml/blog/blob/master/blog-project.xml

There is a parameter pointing to the folder containing the publishing template:

<publication transtype="webhelp-responsive">
      <param name="webhelp.publishing.template" href="publishing/webhelpBlogTemplate"/>
    </publication>

Regards,

Radu

Hello support, hello users,

 

I am trying to create WebHelp Responsive for various products and languages, with different logos, color setup, ditaval filtering, etc.

 

I understand that I should define all this in a DITA-OT Project File to avoid having many transformation scenarios with a very similar, but not identical setup, which would cause additional maintenance effort.

 

How do I specify this project file in Oxygen to create output? Is this the correct approach (see figure below)?

 

It seems that I must create a Scenario for a specific transformation type, although there may be various different trafo types defined in the project file. Seems a bit weird...

 

Do the parameters in the project file override those specified in the scenario?

 

Can I, in a specific file section, specify settings shared by all deliverables and then settings that apply only to a specific deliverable?

 

How can I choose which deliverable(s) to create? I never build all of them at the same time.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Regards,

 

Frank
