It’s possible but the safer method is to use a underscore or hyphen in 
file names.



3. In products you can put all content in a document environment which has 
hooks to insert text etc. at the begin and end of the document (which can be 
used to insert a titlepage or endpage). You can even use \startdocument (or 
\setupdocument) to set the document name in the pdf viewer (yes it can also be 
done with \setupinteraction but \startdocument is nicer).

A minimal file would be

 \startproduct [*]

 \project [project_skel]

 \startdocument

 \component [c_01]
 \component [c_02]

 \stopdocument

 \stopproduct

or

[..]


Environment file:

1. Don’t load the project from your environment file

2. Don’t use \usepath to set the folders for the product files, use it instead 
to set the folders for your component files which are loaded from the products

Does this mean that I should use a product level environment file for the 
\usepath?
(Accessing things like ../img_global?)


With \usepath (and \usesubpath) you can set folders which are searched 
when you
use the \component command to load chapters etc. in your product (or 
component) files.


To load images from other folder you use 
\setupexternalfigure[directory=...] where you
can also use "../images" to load them from a global folder for all 
documents in your project.

Hi,


On 4 Oct 2018, at 08:47, Axel Kielhorn  wrote:

Hello,

this is my second try to start with context and I can’t even do the first step.

I’m planing to convert a large but simple document to context.
The document consists of 3 Parts.
Each part has several chapters.

Thus I started to build a project with three products, see enclosed archive.

According to my understanding I should be able to
context c_01 to get one chapter
context prd_A to get one product
context project_ecm to get the whole book.

Any whole book should be a product, and the Parts should just be components.
The project level is only there to connect meta-info across a book series.
You are not supposed to run ‘context’ on the project file.

That said, it is definitely not your installation or understanding of the
wiki page that creates the circular inclusion. The same happens here. I
discovered it works OK if I move the \product to within the \startcomponent,
and I assume that is how it supposed to work:

   \startcomponent
   \product prd_1
…
   \stopcomponent

At a guess, I think the wiki page is wrong. But before editing that,
I would like to have confirmation of the above assumption.


The \product command is more or less useless because it provides only 
the information

of the main file of the document.

The real question is where you should put the \project or \environment 
commands.
When you put them before \startproduct you’re loading your fonts before 
the start
of the document and the Latin Modern fallback isn’t used but when you 
put them

after \startproduct you load your font after the Latin Modern fallback.

One advantage when you load the project/environment after \startproduct 
(or \startcomponent)
is that you can use the product or component modes in your environment 
file to set

different image or subpath folder dependant on which file type you typeset.

In the end it doesn’t matter whether you load your project/environment 
before or after

\startproduct because there is no difference.

How about offering a skeleton project for download?

Here is my corrected ECM with the following README:

This is a skeleton project.
You can copy it and change the files to contain your content.

The top level project collects metatdata to make all products have the same

The products are used to generate the whole book, but you can process each
component seperately to reduce the processing time.

I’m offering a Python script that creates projects:
https://github.com/fiee/tools/blob/master/contextproject.py
This avoids renaming everything.

In my bigger projects I use additional shell scripts to create directories and 
generic content (e.g. ISBN barcode). Since these are very specific it wouldn’t 
make sense to share them.

I see.
I’ll probably keep it as three books.
It’s easy to change later as long as the components have different names.
Right now that’s just a limitation of the word processor.

Works here as well, thank you.
What about the project?
Right now it is outside the \start{product|component} and it works.

Now it is inside the \start{product|component} and it works as well.

Next question:
Should the environment be inside \startproject \stopproject?

It seems to make no difference.

Thus having the whole file inside \start{project|product|component} \stop… 
would be a good idea and consistent.

Thanks for the quick response, now I can tell pandoc to convert the book to 
context:-)

Any whole book should be a product, and the Parts should just be components.

[NTG-context] Need help with project: TeX capacity exceeded

2018-10-03 Thread Axel Kielhorn
Hello,

this is my second try to start with context and I can’t even do the first step.

I’m planing to convert a large but simple document to context.
The document consists of 3 Parts.
Each part has several chapters.

Thus I started to build a project with three products, see enclosed archive.

According to my understanding I should be able to
context c_01 to get one chapter
context prd_A to get one product
context project_ecm to get the whole book.

The first two steps lead to circular inclusion and the TeX capacity error.
The last step doesn’t load the products and creates no files.

I got my information from

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Project_structure

and think I adapted them correctly, but obviously I didn’t.

I included the log files in case there is something broken with my setup.

Greetings
Axel
