Notice

This is a work in progress for the upcoming 2.0.x release. Don't mistake this as complete documentation.

About

This is the official documentation source to the opendnp3 project.

It uses the Sphinx documentation platform.

Setup and Building

To build the documentation you'll need a working version of Sphinx. Follow the installation direction here for your platform.

It also uses the graphviz Sphinx extension. The "dot" program needs to be on your PATH so Sphinx can run it. On Windows, the graphviz bin directory must be manually added to the PATH.

With Sphinx and graphviz installed:

make html

Documentation will be written to the /build folder.

Building PDFs (optional)

By default, PDF builds are disabled. To enable them, change the following lines in your conf.py

extensions = ['sphinx.ext.todo', 'sphinx.ext.graphviz',  'rst2pdf.pdfbuilder']
#extensions = ['sphinx.ext.todo', 'sphinx.ext.graphviz']

Spell checking (optional)

Spell checking is performed with sphinxcontrib.spelling. Instructions are provided on the project [homepage] (http://sphinxcontrib-spelling.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html).

By default, spell check is disabled. To enable it, change the following lines in your conf.py

# extensions = ['sphinx.ext.todo', 'sphinx.ext.graphviz',  'rst2pdf.pdfbuilder']
# extensions = ['sphinx.ext.todo', 'sphinx.ext.graphviz']
extensions = ['sphinx.ext.todo', 'sphinx.ext.graphviz', 'sphinxcontrib.spelling']

Installing rst2pdf on windows

The basic installation guid was [here] (http://khuntronak.blogspot.in/2013/04/how-to-install-rst2pdf-tool-on-windows.html)

  • Download rst2pdf source from [Google Code] (https://code.google.com/p/rst2pdf/downloads/list)

  • Unzip the source and copy this folder into C:\ location.

  • Goto rst2pdf source directory which contains setup.py file.

  • While running setup.py for package installations, Python 2.7 searches for an installed Visual Studio 2008. You can trick Python to use a newer Visual Studio by setting the correct path in VS90COMNTOOLS environment variable before calling setup.py.

    • If you have Visual Studio 2010 installed, execute SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS100COMNTOOLS%

    • or with Visual Studio 2012 installed (Visual Studio Version 11) SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS%

    • or with Visual Studio 2013 installed (Visual Studio Version 12) SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS120COMNTOOLS%

  • Run python setup.py install command and it will be installed.

  • Install the fonts located in the /fonts folder. If you don't install them, you will get some errors at the make stage. rst2pdf will output a message telling that the not found fonts were replaced. I recommend installing the fonts to get a consistent output between the different operative systems. Beware that the fonts found on the [DejaVu website] (http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page) do not contain spaces in the name. I personally renamed them (added the missing space) so I suggest using the fonts modified by me.

Then in the command line type

make pdf

the output will be located in

/build/pdf

All the configuration for the pdf output has to be done in the conf.py (scroll down to the Options for PDF output section.
