Plantuml seems to be in trouble when using with asciido and html5 backend with an output and :data-uri: directive

Question

Hi,

I'm using a simple example to reproduce :

// -*- adoc -*-
Titre de la documentation
=========================
// Permet l'intégration des images dans les fichier HTML générés
:data-uri:

== Description ==

["plantuml"]
----------
truc -> machin: POST /position
activate machin #FFBBBB

machin -> bidule: (file) => Position(lat, long, date, ...)

machin -> truc: Ok !
deactivate machin
----------
 

Output with html4 : (note the -o option)

asciidoc -v -b html4 -o  /tmp/test.html testPlantum.asciidoc

if I remove the :data-uri: all works fine

Hello,

Would it be possible for you to intercept the file "/tmp/testPlantum__1.txt" ?

Our guess is that this file has an issue with the "html5" option.
It would also be nice if you could change the -quiet flag to -verbose in the following command line:

Execute: java -jar /home/william/.asciidoc/filters/plantuml/plantuml.jar -Tpng -quiet "/tmp/testPlantum__1.txt" > "/tmp/testPlantum__1.png"
 

And then put here again the output log.
Thanks,

Yes but.. how to intercept the file ? it's too quickly for me :-/
Is there and option to keep intermediate files ?

cat /tmp/testPlantum__1.txt
@startuml
truc -> machin: POST /position
activate machin #FFBBBB

machin -> bidule: (file) => Position(lat, long, date, ...)

deactivate machin

There is something weird, when you launch the following command:
asciidoc -v -b html5 -o  /tmp/test.html testPlantum.asciidoc

This trace:
Execute: java -jar /home/william/.asciidoc/filters/plantuml/plantuml.jar -Tpng -quiet "/tmp/testPlantum__1.txt" > "/tmp/testPlantum__1.png"

suggests that the file is created in /tmp (that is /tmp/testPlantum__1.png)

But the following traces:
base64.encode(sys.stdin,sys.stdout)" < "/home/william/Projets/documents/projets/MPA/testPlantum__1.png"}

means the file is expected in /home/william/Projets/doc
uments/projets/MPA

Could you double check if some file is actually created in /tmp ? (/tmp/testPlantum__1.png)
Thanks,

Yes,
ll /tmp/testPlantum__1.png
-rw-r--r-- 1 william william 6077 mars  10 14:39 /tmp/testPlantum__1.png

the html4 generate the file in my /home/william/Projets/documents... and all work fine.

the html5 generate the file in /tmp but failed after

---

Could you give a try while creating a symbolic link:

ln -s /tmp/testPlantum__1.png /home/william/Projets/documents/projets/MPA/testPlantum__1.png

Then retest. We will see if the issue comes from this.
Thanks
