Hello,
I do not answer the question, but I'm interested because I also use
Asymptote. The following code works with context in texlive 2016 but does
not work with standalone context.
thank you,
Fabrice
% macros=mkvi
\usemodule[filter]
\defineexternalfilter
[ASY]
[
filter={asy -tex "context" -outformat pdf
-outname \externalfilteroutputfile},
output=\externalfilterbasefile.pdf,
cache=yes,
readcommand=\ReadImage,
]
\define[1]\ReadImage{\externalfigure[#1]}
\starttext
Testing if we can include an asymptote image
\startplacefigure[location={here}, title={An Asymptote figure}]
\startASY
import three;
size(8cm,0);
currentlight.background=black;
material White(real x, real y){
return material(diffusepen=gray(.05+.1x+.3y),
emissivepen=gray(.05+.1x+.3y));
}
for(int y=0; y<=2; ++y)
for(int x=0; x<3; ++x)
draw(shift(2x,2y,0)*unitsphere,White(x,y));
\stopASY
\stopplacefigure
