How to convert asciidoc text to html using Groovy

Here is how you can convert asciidoc text using Groovy script:

// filename: RunAsciidoc.groovy
@Grab('org.asciidoctor:asciidoctor-java-integration:0.1.3')
import org.asciidoctor.*
def asciidoctor = Asciidoctor.Factory.create()
def output = asciidoctor.renderFile(new File(args[0]),  [:])
println(output);

Now you may run it
