Asciidoctorj gives error if input file is an absolute path

[enr]

Hi,

I have error if I pass the input file as an absolute path, but using relative path everything is ok.

Asciidoctorj version (installed via GVM):

enrico@lap:~/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual$ asciidoctorj --version
Asciidoctor 1.5.2 [http://asciidoctor.org]

The failing command:

enrico@lap:~/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual$ asciidoctorj --backend html5 \
--destination-dir /home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/build \
--out-file index.html --doctype book --attribute project-version=0.1 \
/home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/src/asciidoc/index.adoc
asciidoctor: FAILED: input file(s) '[/home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/src/asciidoc/index.adoc]' missing or cannot be read
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: asciidoctor: FAILED: input file(s) '[/home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/src/asciidoc/index.adoc]' missing or cannot be read
at org.asciidoctor.cli.AsciidoctorInvoker.invoke(AsciidoctorInvoker.java:51)
at org.asciidoctor.cli.AsciidoctorInvoker.main(AsciidoctorInvoker.java:184)

The input file exists:

enrico@lap:~/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual$ ll /home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/src/asciidoc/index.adoc
-rw-rw-r-- 1 enrico enrico 288 gen 27 16:39 /home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/src/asciidoc/index.adoc

The successful command (change only the input file path, from absolute to relative):

enrico@lap:~/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual$ asciidoctorj --backend html5 \
--destination-dir /home/enrico/union/feasibility-docs/developers-manual/build \
--out-file index.html --doctype book --attribute project-version=0.1 \
src/asciidoc/index.adoc

Is this expected?

Anyway, thanks a lot for this awesome tool!

At least this is not the expected behaviour, we are going to check why this happens and fix it.

Thank you very much for using asciidoctor.

Ok, let me know if you need help to reproduce the problem or test the fix :)

I get the same result. Seems to happen even for a simple invocation with an absolute path:

$ asciidoctorj /tmp/article.adoc

Results in:

asciidoctor: FAILED: input file(s) '[/tmp/article.adoc]' missing or cannot be read
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: asciidoctor: FAILED: input file(s) '[/tmp/article.adoc]' missing or cannot be read

Fixed in master, now we need to rebase to asciidoctorj1.6.0 branch.
