Download Reveal.js packages from here.
Extract Reveal.js folders from the downloaded zip file.
If you do not wish to download reveal.js yourself and would rather get a copy from a CDN, see the section Set the location of Reveal.js
The easiest way to install org-reveal is to install package ox-reveal from MELPA.
Please refer to http://melpa.org/#/getting-started for using MELPA.
Note: It is suggested to use the Org ELPA archive in pair with the ox-reveal packages. Emacs builtin Org-mode package may be out of date for MELPA's ox-reveal.
You can also install the latest developing version of org-reveal directly from GitHub.
Please download the latest Org-reveal package from the Org-reveal GitHub page. Or clone the GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/yjwen/org-reveal.git
Copy ox-reveal.el
to one of your Emacs's load-path
, and add the
following statement to your .emacs
file.
(require 'ox-reveal)
Note: It is suggested to use the Org-mode git repository in pair with the GitHub org-reveal. Please get the Org-mode git repository by:
$ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git
Follow the online instruction for building and installing Org-mode.
Org-reveal must know where Reveal.js is on your computer before exporting Org contents. The location of Reveal.js is the path to the top directory of the Reveal.js packages, the directory which contains file README.md, but not the one that contains the file reveal.js.
The default location is ./reveal.js
, relative to the Org file.
Changing org-reveal-root
's value will change the location
globally. For example, add the following statement to your .emacs
file:
(setq org-reveal-root "file:///d:/reveal.js")
IMPORTANT: the absolute path to Reveal.js should be in URL form,
"file:///path_to_reveal.js", as illustrated above. By setting
option REVEAL_ROOT
, the location is only affected within the Org
file.
#+REVEAL_ROOT: file:///d:/reveal.js
Set your REVEAL_ROOT
to the following URL to download reveal.js from
a CDN instead of downloading a local copy.
#+REVEAL_ROOT: http://cdn.jsdelivr.net/reveal.js/3.0.0/
For example if you cloned this repository to your home directory, this file in Mac OS X would be referred to as "file:///Users/username/org-reveal/readme.html". This file in Ubuntu would be "file:///home/username/org-reveal/readme.html" and in Windows this file would be "c:/Users/username/org-reveal/readme.html". For more detail on this standard please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme
To load Org-reveal, type "M-x load-library", then type "ox-reveal".
Now you can export this manual into Reveal.js presentation by typing "C-c C-e R R".
Open the generated "Readme.html" in your browser and enjoy the cool slides.
Org-reveal maps each heading and its contents to one Reveal.js slide. Since Reveal.js arranges slides into a 2-dimensional matrix, Org-reveal use a HLevel value to decide whether to map headings to horizontal or vertical slides.
HLevel's default value is 1, means only level 1 headings are arranged horizontally. Deeper headings are mapped to vertical slides below their parent level 1 heading.
Assume we have a simple Org file as below:
* H1 * H2 ** H2.1 *** H2.1.1 * H3
If HLevel is 1, the default value, headings H2.1 and H2.1.1 will be mapped to vertical slides below the slides of heading H2.
If HLevel is changed to 2, slides of heading H2.1 will be changed to the main horizontal queue, and slides of heading H2.1.1 will be a vertical slide below it.
org-reveal-hlevel
's value to set HLevel globally..emacs
file.(setq org-reveal-hlevel 2)
REVEAL_HLEVEL
.#+REVEAL_HLEVEL: 2
If one heading has too many things to fit into one slide, you can split the contents into multiple vertical slides manually, by inserting
#+REVEAL: split
Now a new slide begins after #+REVEAL
keyword.
Themes and transition styles are set globally throughout the whole
file by setting options REVEAL_THEME
, REVEAL_TRANS
, and REVEAL_SPEED
.
For an example, please check the heading part of this document.
Available themes can be found in "css/theme/" in the reveal.js directory.
Available transitions are: default|cube|page|concave|zoom|linear|fade|none.
By default, Org-reveal generates a title slide displaying the title, the author, the Email, the date and the time-stamp of the Org document, controlled by Org's export settings.
To avoid a title slide, please set variable
org-reveal-title-slide
to nil
, or add reveal_title_slide:nil
to
#+OPTIONS:
line.
To restore the default title slide, please set variable
org-reveal-title-slide
to 'auto
.
To customize the title slide, please set org-reveal-title-slide
to a string of HTML markups. The following escaping character can
be used to retrieve document information:
%t |
Title |
%a |
Author |
%e |
|
%d |
Date |
%% |
Literal % |
Slide background can be set to a color, an image or a repeating image array by setting heading properties.
Set property reveal_background
to either an RGB color value, or any
supported CSS color format.
*** Single Colored Background :PROPERTIES: :reveal_background: #123456 :END:
Set property reveal_background
to an URL of background image.
Set property reveal_background_trans
to slide
to make background image
sliding rather than fading.
*** Single Image Background :PROPERTIES: :reveal_background: ./images/whale.jpg :reveal_background_trans: slide :END:
Resize background image by setting property
reveal_background_size
to a number.
Set property reveal_background_repeat
to repeat
to repeat
image on the background.
*** Repeating Image Background :PROPERTIES: :reveal_background: ./images/whale.jpg :reveal_background_size: 200px :reveal_background_repeat: repeat :END:
To set the title slide's background image, please specify the following options:
REVEAL_TITLE_SLIDE_BACKGROUND
: A URL to the background image.REVEAL_TITLE_SLIDE_BACKGROUND_SIZE
: HTML size specification, e.g. 200px
.REVEAL_TITLE_SLIDE_BACKGROUND_REPEAT
: set to repeat
to repeat the image.
Reveal.js scales slides to best fit the display resolution, but you can
also specify the desired size by settings the option tags width
and height
.
The scaling behavior can also be constrained by setting following options:
#+REVEAL_MARGIN:
#+REVEAL_MIN_SCALE:
#+REVEAL_MAX_SCALE:
By default, a flatten slide number is showed at the lower-right corner of each slide.
To disable slide numbering, please add reveal_slide_number:nil
to
#+OPTIONS:
line.
From Reveal.js 3.1.0, slide numbering can have several custom
formats. To choose one format, please set reveal_slide_number
to
its proper string. For example, reveal_slide_number:h/v
.
Supported format string can be found in Reveal.js manual.
Specify Slide header/footer by #+REVEAL_SLIDE_HEADER:
and
#+REVEAL_SLIDE_FOOTER:
. The option content will be put into
divisions of class slide-header
and slide-footer
, so you can
control their appearance in custom CSS file(see Extra Stylesheets).
By default header/footer content will only display on content
slides. To show them also on the title and toc slide you can add
reveal_global_header:t
and reveal_global_footer:t
to
#+OPTIONS:
line.
Make contents fragmented (show up one-by-one) by setting option
ATTR_REVEAL
with property ":frag frag-style", as illustrated
below.
Paragraphs can be fragmented.
Pictures, tables and many other HTML elements can be fragmented.
Available fragment styles are:
Setting :frag t
will use Reveal.js default fragment style, which
can be overridden by local option #+REVEAL_DEFAULT_FRAG_STYLE
or
global variable org-reveal-default-frag-style
.
Fragment sequence can be changed by assigning adding :frag_idx
property to each fragmented element.
And, this paragraph shows at last.
This paragraph shows secondly.
This paragraph shows at first.
#+ATTR_REVEAL: :frag frag-style
above a list defines fragment
style for the list as a whole.
To define fragment styles for every list item, please enumerate each item's style in a lisp list.
none
in the style list will disable fragment for the
corresponding list item.
Custom fragment sequence should also be enumerated for each list item.
An example:
#+ATTR_REVEAL: :frag (grow shrink roll-in fade-out none) :frag_idx (4 3 2 1 -)
* I will grow.
* I will shrink.
* I rolled in.
* I will fade out.
* I don't fragment.
When there is :frag_idx
specified, insufficient fragment style
list will be extended by its last element. So a :frag (appear)
assigns each item of a list the appear
fragment style.
#+ATTR_REVEAL: :frag (appear)
* I appear.
* I appear.
* I appear.
Set property reveal_data_state
to headings to change this slide's
display style, as illustrated above.
Available data states are: alert|blackout|soothe.
Reveal.js provides several plug-in functions.
Each plugin can be toggled on/off by adding #+OPTIONS
tags or
by setting custom variables.
#+OPTIONS
tags:reveal_control
, reveal_progress
, reveal_history
,
reveal_center
, reveal_rolling_links
, reveal_keyboard
, reveal_overview
org-reveal-control
, org-reveal-progress
,
org-reveal-history
, org-reveal-center
, org-reveal-rolling-links
, org-reveal-keyboard
, org-reveal-overview
For an example, please refer to the heading part of this document.
Reveal.js is also extensible through third-party plugins. Org-reveal now includes a mechanism to load these as well. It's a little more complicated, because we need to store the specific javascript loading code in a defcustom.
Store the names and loading instructions for each plugin in the defcustom org-reveal-external-plugins
. This defcustom is an associative list. The first element of each Assoc cell is a symbol – the name of the plugin – and the second is a string that will be expanded by the format
function when the plugin is loaded. So, this second element should have the form ~" {src: \"%srelative/path/toplugin/from/reveal/root.js\"}'. If you need the async or callback parameters, include those too. Ox-reveal will add the plugin to the dependencies parameter when Reveal is initialized.
There are two ways to highlight source code.
To Use your Emacs theme, please make sure htmlize.el
is
installed. Then no more setup is necessary.
Below is an example. Codes are copied from Haskell Wiki.
fibs = 0 : 1 : next fibs where next (a : t@(b:_)) = (a+b) : next t
If you saw odd indentation, please set variable org-html-indent
to nil
and export again.
You can also use highlight.js, by adding highlight
to the Reveal.js
plugin list.
#+REVEAL_PLUGINS: (highlight)
The default highlighting theme is zenburn.css
brought with
Reveal.js. To use other themes, please specify the CSS file name by
#+REVEAL_HIGHLIGHT_CSS
or the variable org-reveal-highlight-css
.
The "%r" in the given CSS file name will be replaced by Reveal.js' URL.
\({n! \over k!(n-k)!} = {n \choose k}\)
LateX equation are rendered in native HTML5 contents.
IMPORTANT: Displaying equations requires internet connection to
mathjax.org or local MathJax installation. For local MathJax
installation, set option REVEAL_MATHJAX_URL
to the URL pointing
to the local MathJax location.
Note: Option reveal_mathjax
is obsolete now. Org-reveal
exports necessary MathJax configurations when there is Latex
equation found.
You can define preamble and postamble contents which will not be shown as slides, but will be exported into the body part of the generated HTML file, at just before and after the slide contents.
Change preamble and postamble contents globally by setting variable
org-reveal-preamble
and org-reveal-postamble
.
Change preamble and postamble contents locally by setting options
REVEAL_PREAMBLE
and REVEAL_POSTAMBLE
, as illustrated at the
heading part of this document.
To add custom contents into HTML <head>
parts, set contents to
variable org-reveal-head-preamble
or option
REVEAL_HEAD_PREAMBLE
.
If the contents of pre/postamble is the name of an evaluated Emacs-Lisp function, which must accept an argument of Org-mode info and return a string, the returned string will be taken as pre/postamble contents.
So you can embed the Emacs-Lisp function as an Org-Babel source block and mark it to be evaluated when exporting the document.
Besides the Org contents, you can embed raw HTML contents
into slides by placing a #+REVEAL_HTML
keyword.
The famous cat jump fail:
Reveal.js supports speaker notes, which are displayed in a separate browser window. Pressing 's' on slide's windows will pop up a window displaying the current slide, the next slide and the speaker notes on the current slide.
Org-reveal recognize texts between #+BEGIN_NOTES
and #+END_NOTES
as speaker notes. See the example below.
* Heading 1 Some contents. #+BEGIN_NOTES Enter speaker notes here. #+END_NOTES
Speaker notes requires the notes
plug-in. If you changed default
plug-in setting by specifying #+REVEAL_PLUGINS
or by setting
variable org-reveal-plugins
, please make sure notes
is in the
plug-in list to enable speaker notes.
Due to a bug in Reveal.js, sometimes the speaker notes window shows only blank screens. A workaround to this issue is to put the presentation HTML file into the Reveal.js root directory and reopen it in the browser.
Org-reveal registers 'n' as the key for speaker notes easy-template.
So you can press '<' followed by 'n' and then press TAB, the #+BEGIN_NOTES
and #+END_NOTES
pair is inserted automatically.
Customize org-reveal-note-key-char
to change the default key
'n'. set it to nil will forbid the auto-completion for speaker notes.
Reveal.js supports multiplexing, which allows allows your audience to view the slides of the presentation you are controlling on their own phone, tablet or laptop. As the master presentation navigates the slides, all client presentations will update in real time. See a demo at http://revealjs.jit.su/.
You can enable multiplexing for your slide generation by including the following options:
#+REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_ID: [Obtained from the socket.io server. ] #+REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_SECRET: [Obtained from socket.io server. Gives the master control of the presentation.] #+REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_URL: http://revealjs.jit.su:80 [Location of socket.io server] #+REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_SOCKETIO_URL: http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/socket.io/0.9.10/socket.io.min.js #+REVEAL_PLUGINS: ([any other plugins you are using] multiplex)
You must generate unique values for the REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_ID
and
REVEAL_MULTIPLEX_SECRET
options, obtaining these from the socket.io server
you are using.
If you include these options in your .org file, reveal-org will enable your
.html file as the master file for multiplexing and will generate a file named
in the form [filename]_client.html
in the same directory as the client
.html file. Provide your audience with a link to the client file to allow
them to track your presentation on their own device.
Set REVEAL_EXTRA_CSS
to a stylesheet file path in order to load extra custom
styles after loading a theme.
#+REVEAL_EXTRA_CSS: url-to-custom-stylesheet.css
Set option REVEAL_PLUGINS
or variable org-reveal-plugins
to a
lisp list to select built-in scripts.
Available built-in scripts are: classList/markdown/highlight/zoom/notes/search/remotes.
Default built-ins are: classList/markdown/highlight/zoom/notes/multiplex.
The following examples select markdown and highlight only.
#+REVEAL_PLUGINS: (markdown highlight)
Set REVEAL_EXTRA_JS
to the url of extra reveal.js dependent
script if necessary.
#+REVEAL_EXTRA_JS: url-to-custom-script.js
Set property reveal_extra_attr
to headings to add any necessary attributes
to slides.
By setting option reveal_single_file
to t
, images and necessary
Reveal.js scripts will be embedded into the exported HTML file, to make
a portable HTML. Please note that remote images will not be included in the
single file, so presentations with remote images will still require an Internet
connection.
Attention: This needs locally available reveal.js files!
#+OPTIONS: reveal_single_file:t
When exporting into single file, functions provided by Reveal.js libraries will be disabled due to limitation, including PDF export, Markdown support, zooming, speaker notes and remote control.
Code highlight by highlight.js is also disabled. But code highlight by Emacs is not effected.
Use menu entry " C-c C-e R S" to export only current subtree, without the title slide and the table of content, for a quick preview of your current edition.
Add num:nil
to #+OPTIONS
#+OPTIONS: num:nil
Reveal.js supports only jump between slides, but not between elements on slides. Thus, we can only link to headlines in an Org document.
You can create links pointing to a headline's text, or its custom-id, as the examples below:
To pass custom JS code to Reveal.initialize
, state the code by
#+REVEAL_INIT_SCRIPT
(multiple statements are concatenated) or by
custom variable org-reveal-init-script
.
