Documentation Source

This folder contains source files for the documentation. The sources do not render well in GitHub or an RST viewer. In addition, some information is not visible at all and some links will not be functional.

Building Documentation

Prerequisites

Use the xmosdoc tool either via docker or install it into a pip environment.

Building

To build the documentation, run the following command in the root of the repository:

# via pip package
xmosdoc clean html latex
# via docker
$ docker run --rm -t -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $(pwd):/build ghcr.io/xmos/xmosdoc clean html latex

HTML document output is saved in the doc/_build/html folder. Open index.html to preview the saved documentation.

Please refer to the xmosdoc documentation for a complete guide on how to use the tool.

Adding a New Component

Follow the following steps to add a new component.

  • Add an entry for the new component's top-level document to the appropriate TOC in the documents tree.
  • If the new component uses Doxygen, append the appropriate path(s) to the INPUT variable in Doxyfile.inc.
  • If the new component includes .rst files that should not be part of the documentation build, append the appropriate pattern(s) to exclude_patterns.inc.
