Documentation
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This directory contains Bro documentation in reStructuredText format
|
|
(see http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html).
|
|
|
|
It is the root of a Sphinx source tree and can be modified to add more
|
|
common/general documentation, style sheets, JavaScript, etc. The Sphinx
|
|
config file is produced from ``conf.py.in``, and can be edited to change
|
|
various Sphinx options.
|
|
|
|
There is also a custom Sphinx domain implemented in ``ext/bro.py``
|
|
which adds some reST directives and roles that aid in generating useful
|
|
index entries and cross-references. Other extensions can be added in
|
|
a similar fashion.
|
|
|
|
The ``make doc`` target in the top-level Makefile can be used to locally
|
|
render the reST files into HTML. That target depends on:
|
|
|
|
* Python interpreter >= 2.5
|
|
* `Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/>`_ >= 1.0.1
|
|
* Doxygen (required only for building the Broccoli API doc)
|
|
|
|
After completion, HTML documentation is symlinked in ``build/html``.
|
|
|
|
There's also a ``make docclean`` target which deletes any files
|
|
created during the documentation build process.

Notes for Writing Documentation
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* If you want to refer to a document that's part of the
|
|
distribution, it currently needs to be copied or otherwise symlinked
|
|
somewhere in to this Sphinx source tree. Then, it can be referenced
|
|
in a toc tree or with the :doc: role. Use the :download: role to
|
|
refer to static files that will not undergo sphinx rendering.
|
|
|
|
* If you want to refer to a page on the Bro web site, use an HTTP URL.
