generator-reveal

Reveal.js generator

A Yeoman generator for the awesome Reveal.js presentation framework.

Usage

Install: npm install -g generator-reveal

Make a new directory, and cd into it:

mkdir my-new-project && cd $_

Run yo reveal and start building your presentation.

After all files are created you can view your slides with grunt:

grunt server

Then, create further slides with yo reveal:slide more-content. See below for available options. When you want to export your presentation to some static HTML server, you can type grunt dist to have all your relevant files saved to the dist directory.

Generators

Available generators:

• reveal:slide

Slide

Generates a Slide file.

Example:

yo reveal:slide "Slide Title"

Produces slides/slide-title.html:

<h2>Slide Title</h2>

<p>This is a new slide</p>

And the slide filename will be added to your slides/list.json file.

[
    "index.md",
    "slide-title.html"
]

Vertical Slides

In order to add vertical slides, you can nest an array inside slides/list.json

[
    "index.md",
    [
        "vertical-html.html",
        "vertical-markdown.md"
    ],
    [
        "vertical-html-2.html",
        "vertical-markdown-2.md"
    ],
    "the-end.md"
]

Simple (Image) Slides

Sometimes you just want a slide with a background image. That's okay, a slide object does not need a filename.

[
    "index.md",
    {
        "attr": {
            "data-background": "http://example.com/image.png"
        }
    }
]

yo reveal:slide "Slide Title" --attributes

[

    {
        "filename": "slide-title.md",
        "attr": {
            "data-background": "#ff0000"
        }
    }
]
