hexdoc 0.11.1.1.0rc7.dev19

Python web book docgen for Patchouli and Hex Casting.

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:

  pip install cookiecutter
  cookiecutter gh:object-Object/HexMod --directory doc
  

  • Note: if you run this from within an existing mod repo, add the flag -f and leave output_directory blank.
• Fill in the TODOs in doc/properties.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.

Setup

python -m venv venv

.\venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows
source venv/bin/activate # anything other than Windows

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

Usage

For local testing, create a file called .env 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 doc/properties.toml _site/src/docs
hexdoc merge --src _site/src/docs --dst _site/dst/docs

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

hexdoc serve doc/properties.toml --src _site/src/docs --dst _site/dst/docs
