Add Ability to Run Antora on Playbook .yml Files from VSCODE GUI (Right-Click > Launch Antora)? about asciidoctor-vscode

One way would be to add a scripts in a package.json file.:

Neat, is there a way to pass a file name through to this script?
For example, I have a lot of playbooks in one folder, each one points to a different repo with a different repository. This is where my AsciiDoctor PDF theme lives. I'm not edit currently edit doing anything fancy with symbolic links. I just don't know if there's a better way. Perhaps my antora.yml, antora-playbook.yml, and antora-assembler.yml files could all live in the same place... not sure, but right now I have a dozen different playbooks (and growing) pointing to different, unrelated documents.

hello, disregard my previous comment. I implemented my theme as a git submodule, so now I add that to all my content repos. This allows me to put the antora-playbook.yml and antora-assembler.yml next to each other.

However, I found that the proposed solution doesn't work 100% of the time. I got it working once, but then it complained that I needed to add the NPM extension... but that one is deprecated.

The solution was to create a tasks.json

{
    "name": "Render Antora HTML and AsciiDoctorPDF Output",
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "label": "Render Command",
    "type": "shell",
    "command": "npx antora antora-playbook.yml",
}

I recycled this from a .bat file I was trying to write, so I also had "presentation" and "group" keys, but I am not sure they are necessary.

Now pressing control+shift+b runs the command.

Great!
