Paths
According to base directories from freedesktop, the working paths could be:
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/devhelp/books $XDG_DATA_DIRS/gtk-doc/html
Steps
1. Go to Gramps/docs folder
2. modify 'update_doc.py' for generating a devhelp file via 'devhelp' key for builder:
$ sphinx-build -b devhelp . _build/devhelp
could be:
$ os.system(' ' '%(program)s -b devhelp . _build/devhelp' ' ' % {'program': sphinxCmd})
in python.
3. run 'update_doc.py':
e.g.,
$ cd docs $ python3 update_doc.py
4. copy the content of _build/devhelp directory into:
~/.local/share/devhelp/books
Need to use the same name for the devhelp file and the top directory (e.g., Gramps)
Updated python APIs
Give a try to:
git clone https://github.com/lazka/pgi-docs-devhelp.git ~/.local/share/devhelp/books devhelp
To update:
