| After saying `make refdoc' or `make refdoc-venv' the `reference/' directory |
| contains the FreeType API reference. You need Python >= 3.5 and pip to make |
| this target. |
| |
| There are two ways to generate the documentation: |
| |
| 1. Using `make refdoc': |
| |
| - Ensure `python' and `pip' are available. |
| - Install pip package `docwriter' with `pip install --user docwriter'. |
| - Make target with `make refdoc'. |
| - This target can be run offline once required packages are installed. |
| |
| 2. Using `make refdoc-venv' (requires internet access): |
| |
| - Ensure `python', `pip' and Python package `virtualenv' are available. |
| - Make target with `make refdoc-venv'. |
| - This may or may not require internet access every time depending on |
| pip and system caching. |
| |
| This also works with Jam: Just type `jam refdoc' in the main directory. |
| |
| Some troubleshooting tips: |
| |
| * Regularly run `pip install --upgrade docwriter' to check for updates which |
| may include bug fixes. |
| |
| * `Docwriter' does not support Python 2. Ensure that Python >= 3.5 is |
| installed and available as `python3'/`python'. |
| |
| * Ensure that `docwriter' is installed in the same Python target that |
| `make refdoc' uses (python3/python). |
| |
| * If none of this works, send a mail to `freetype-devel@nongnu.org' or file |
| an issue at `https://github.com/freetype/docwriter/issues'. |
