This `Django <http://djangoproject.com>`_ app has for purpose to integrate
protected sphinx based documentation .


Installation
============

Depedencies
~~~~~~~~~~~

django-documentation depends on `Sphinx <http://sphinx.pocoo.org>`_

Installing django-simple-feedback
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Install into your python path using pip::

pip install django-documentation
pip install -e git+git://github.com/Narsil/django-documentation.git#egg=django-documentation

Add *'documentation'* to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py::

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'documentation',
)

Add *'(r'^docs/', include('documentation.urls')'* to your urls::

urlpatterns = patterns( '',
....
(r'^docs/', include('documentation.urls'),
)

Settings
~~~~~~~~

Set up where is your documentation, and a function that has a user for argument
and returns **True** if user is allowed to see the doc. If you plan on using
``lambda user: True``, then you probably should not be using this app, as
staticfiles would be better suited for this task. ::

DOCUMENTATION_ROOT = '/path/to/docs/'
DOCUMENTATION_ACCESS_FUNCTION = lambda user: user.is_staff

The DOCUMENATION_ROOT is the root of your sphinx doc where the Makefile exists, if you html docs is
placed somewhere else than ``DOCUMENTATION_ROOT + '_build/html/'`` then you
can override it with::

DOCUMENTATION_HTML_ROOT = '/my/other/location/

Note that django-documentation serves the content via x-sendfile when DEBUG
is False, otherwise it uses
`django.views.static.serve <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/#django.views.static.serve>`_
To override use ::

DOCUMENTATION_XSENDFILE = True

django-documentation also comes with a command goodies ::

./manage.py makedoc

to generate the documentation.
