Improvements and updates in AutoDoc 1.24.10

1. Added the ability to collapse code blocks when viewing the project structure in the browser (Chrome, Yandex, Google). This improves navigation and eliminates the need to reload the page to collapse all sections.

2. Fixed overlapping elements during dynamic scaling. Now the project structure is displayed statically, without the need for zooming.

3. Added the ability to manage output encoding in console mode on Windows Server 2019 (English). Now the encoding can be changed in two ways: through the appsettings.json configuration file or through the -oe parameter when calling the command (the encoding specified by this parameter applies only to the current run).

4. Fixed a problem with displaying Process Structure and Process Diagram in the finished document. Improved exception handling: if Autodoc cannot connect to the server to process the image, local rendering is enabled. Conditions for the correct operation of local rendering can be found in the Autodoc help.

5. Fixed incorrect behavior when specifying an empty or non-existent folder in the -t parameter. Now checks have been added for this parameter:

   • the existence of the specified folder;
   • matching paths with user templates;
   • required template files. In case of errors, a corresponding message is displayed, including information about missing files.

6. Fixed an error occurring when running from another folder, related to the absence of the appsettings.json file. Now Autodoc can be run from any directory, provided that the path to the executable file is specified correctly.

7. Fixed the display of process and project descriptions. Now the process description specified in the project file is displayed correctly in the templates.

8. Fixed an error occurring when creating a table of contents (TOC). Now, in case of server unavailability for rendering images, local rendering is automatically launched. Requirements for the correct operation of local rendering are specified in the Autodoc help.

9. Added interface localization (en, rus). The language can be specified in the configuration file or through the command line parameter.

10. Changed the format of the appsettings.json configuration file:

• the list of paths for “Tagger” is now specified in array format;
• added a language setting Language to select the interface language (en, rus);
• added a setting to determine the encoding of strings in the console (default utf-8).

11. Improved work with command line parameters:

• added a parameter to manage the encoding of strings in the console -oe;
• expanded the check of entered values for command line arguments;
• added the ability to get the description of a separate process by specifying the process file (for example, -i 'process.ltw' -o 'D:\Result').

12. Improvements in template processing:

• checks for the existence of required template files: project.cshtml, process.cshtml, ActivityInfo.cshtml. If these files are missing, the program displays an error message;
• cleans the Resources\CustomTemplate folder with each run, with the possibility of errors during the cleaning process;
• if the -t parameter is not specified, the presence of default template files is checked.

13. Improved algorithm for preparing process diagrams. In case of server unavailability for rendering pictures and the absence of the -local parameter, local rendering is launched.

14. Brought the version numbering of Autodoc into line with the general versioning standards of Primo RPA Studio.
