I need steps how to convert dita to word using DITA OT plugin named com.elovirta.ooxml in oxygen


I need steps to convert DITA to word process in oxygen by using the plugin name called com.elovirta.ooxml using this link,

Input Dita xml file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE topic
  PUBLIC "urn:pubid:doctypes:dita:topic" "topic.dtd">
<topic id="d63e3" xml:lang="en-US" outputclass="Student_Notebook">
  <title outputclass="Title">Student Notebook</title>
  <body>
    <section outputclass="Handout"><title>Labs Student Notebook
        1</title><p outputclass="SC_P_Large_Center">Module 1</p><p
        outputclass="SC_P_Large_Center">Literacy Labs</p><p outputclass="SC_P_Large_Center">Student
        Notebook</p><p outputclass="SC_P_Medium">________________ _______________ _______________
        _______________ </p></section>
  </body>
</topic>

I tried through DITA-OT 2.1.0, After installation of three plugins com.elovirta.ooxml, org.dita.base, org.dita.pdf2 in dita ot because those three plugins depended on each other so i installed three plugins. In com.elovirta.ooxml plugin.xml code like this mentioned:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin id="com.elovirta.ooxml">
  <require plugin="org.dita.pdf2"/>
  <feature extension="dita.conductor.transtype.check" value="docx"/>
  <feature extension="dita.transtype.print" value="docx"/>
  <feature extension="dita.conductor.target.relative" file="integrator.xml"/>
</plugin>

So I have installed three plugins. After that I have runned the command in command prompt like this:

C:\DITA-OT\dita-ot-2.1.0-dita2word>ant -f integrator.xml

Buildfile: C:\DITA-OT\dita-ot-2.1.0-dita2word\integrator.xml

strict:

integrate:
      [jar] Building jar: C:\DITA-OT\dita-ot-2.1.0-dita2word\lib\dost-configuration.jar

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 0 seconds

After that

I have done this process in Oxygen:

  • In transformation Scenario, I have selected DITA OT Transformation,

    transformation type I have selected,

    and I didn't changed any parameters

    3 points shown in below screen shot

enter image description here

By clicking ok button I have created scenario after transformation running I am getting this Error:

Description: [DOTJ025E] The input to the "topic merge" transform process could not be found. Correct any earlier transform errors and try the build again, or see the DITA-OT User Guide for additional causes.

So I have try to do with dita-ot-2.4.1 newer version after plugin installation, i have run the command :

C:\DITA-OT\dita-ot-2.4.1>ant -f integrator.xml
Buildfile: C:\DITA-OT\dita-ot-2.4.1\integrator.xml

integrate:

I am getting this error, so i didn't used the DITA OT newer version.

After doing the process in git After this command

$ ./dita --input=/E/SampleFile.dita -f docx

I am getting the error as:

 [pipeline] Error at xsl:element on line 64 of topicmergeImpl.xsl:
 [pipeline]   XTDE0820: Invalid element name. Invalid QName {}
 [pipeline]   in built-in template rule
Error: Failed to run pipeline: Failed to process merged topics: Invalid element name. Invalid QName {}

Please provide me suggestion to resolve this error as well as up to dita2word conversion.

Thanks in Advance


Solution

  • There is a Java class missing, probably because you mixed incompatible versions of the toolkit or its plugins.

    Because you are on a Windows machine, you need a working command line interface to execute the following commands. I recommend to you to install Git, because it ships Git Bash, which contains a good command line interface that allows you to execute basic Unix commands like ls, vi and curl.

    In Git Bash, execute:

    1. Open your user home directory.

      cd ~
      
    2. Create a temp directory.

      mkdir temp
      
    3. Go to the temp directory.

      cd temp
      
    4. Download the latest DITA-OT.

      curl -LO https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/releases/download/2.4.1/dita-ot-2.4.1.zip
      
    5. Unzip the OT.

      unzip dita-ot-2.4.1.zip
      
    6. Goto the bin directory.

      cd dita-ot-2.4.1/bin/
      
    7. Install the com.elovirta.ooxml plugin.

      ./dita --install https://github.com/jelovirt/com.elovirta.ooxml/archive/master.zip
      
    8. Generate a docx rom the DITA-OT docs.

      ./dita --input ../docsrc/userguide-book.ditamap -f docx
