hexdoc-hexcasting 0.10.3.1.0.dev20

Hex Casting web book.

hexdoc

This is the Python docgen for Hex Casting.

Version scheme

We use hatch-gradle-version to generate the version number based on whichever mod version the docgen was built with.

The version is in this format: mod-version.python-version.mod-pre.python-dev.python-post

For example:

• Mod version: 0.11.1-7
• Python package version: 1.0.dev0
• Full version: 0.11.1.1.0rc7.dev0

Creating a plugin / addon

WIP.

• Run these commands, then follow the prompts:

  pip3 install cruft
  cruft create gh:object-Object/HexMod --directory doc
  

  • --directory doc tells Cookiecutter to look for a template in the doc directory of HexMod, and cannot be omitted.
  • If you run this from within an existing mod repo, add the flag -f, and leave the output_directory option blank when prompted by Cookiecutter.
    • Note: this currently overwrites any conflicting files, including your .gitignore, so you may need to use your Git history to re-add anything not covered by the new file.
• Fill in the TODOs in doc/hexdoc.toml (mostly paths to files/folders in your mod so hexdoc can find the data it needs).
• Try running the docgen locally by following the instructions in doc/README.md.
• If it doesn't already exist, create an empty gh-pages branch and push it.
• On GitHub, under Settings > Pages, set the source to Deploy from a branch, the branch to gh-pages, and the folder to docs/.
• Commit and push the docgen, and see if the CI works.
• On GitHub, under Settings > Environments, create two new environments called pypi and testpypi.
• Follow these instructions for PyPI and TestPyPI: https://docs.pypi.org/trusted-publishers/creating-a-project-through-oidc/
  • TestPyPI is a duplicate of PyPI which can be used for testing package publishing without affecting the real index. The CI workflow includes a manual execution option to publish to TestPyPI.
  • If you like to live dangerously, this step is optional - you can remove the publish-testpypi job and the TestPyPI release choice from your workflow without impacting the rest of the CI.

Updating to the latest Cookiecutter template

Run this command: cruft update

Setup

python3.11 -m venv venv

.\venv\Scripts\activate   # Windows
. venv/bin/activate.fish  # fish
source venv/bin/activate  # everything else

# run from the repo root, not doc/
pip install -e .[dev]

Usage

For local testing, create a file called .env in the repo root following this template:

GITHUB_REPOSITORY=gamma-delta/HexMod
GITHUB_SHA=main
GITHUB_PAGES_URL=https://gamma-delta.github.io/HexMod

Then run these commands to generate the book:

# run from the repo root, not doc/
hexdoc render
hexdoc merge

Or, run this command to render the book and start a local web server:

hexdoc serve --lang en_us
