How To Convert a UserBase Manual to Docbook/fr

Préface

Le processus actuel n'est pas peaufiné, le code du script n'est pas beau, pas assez intelligent, etc.. La seule excuse est qu'il fonctionne tout de même

.

Si vous voulez améliorer le processus, que vous avez une bonne expérience de Python, et que vous connaissez les principes d'utilisation de docbook, vous pouvez améliorer la procédure. Veuillez contacter Yurchor si vous vous sentez prêt à apporter votre aide.

Préparation des pages pour Conversion

• Check that the pages of your manual follow the author guidelines of UserBase and typographical guidelines.

• Vérifiez que chaque page a son titre aligné avec le niveau de cette page dans la table des matières.

Reference table

UserBase	Docbook	Comment
==Section==	<chapter>
===Section===	<sect1>
====Section====	<sect2>
=====Section=====	<sect3>
======Section======	<sect4>	Avoid using this last level if possible

• Check if all table cells have space after the pipe character. This rule conforms with traditional wiki formatting.

• Make application name formatting consistent (avoid using Amaroks, do use Amarok's).

• Vérifiez que toutes les images sont au format PNG.

• Supprimez tous les caractères non imprimables des noms d'images.

Exporter

• Prepare the page list (strip from UserBase addresses http://userbase.kde.org). Example for Amarok:

Astuce

Vous pouvez obtenir la liste complète des pages pour votre application avec le script suivant :

<DPL>
  nottitlematch = %/__|%/zh-%|%(%)
  titlematch = Amarok%
  namespace = Main
  columns = 1
  format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],,
</DPL>

Replace Amarok with the name of your application, put it on your user page, and click on Preview. Rearrange the list according to the ToC of your manual.

• Allez sur la page d'exportation.

• Paste the page list into the bigger text field.

• Click on Export.

Export of Amarok manual pages

• Save the file. The saved file will be called Manual.xml in what follows.

Conversion

• Install Subversion package for your system.

• Checkout the latest version of conversion script:

  svn checkout --depth=files svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/work/doc/

• Copier Manual.xml dans le dossier du script.

• Run

  python wiki2docbook.py Manual.xml

  if you want to download all screenshots (it takes some time to download all images from UserBase, grep and wget should be installed), or

  python wiki2docbook.py -s Manual.xml

  if you need not to download images.

Post traitement

• Renommer Manual.xml.docbook en index.docbook.

• Check if conversion was done correctly:

  checkXML index.docbook

• Fix the errors (better on UserBase pages).

• Convert docbook to HTML:

  meinproc4 index.docbook

• Check HTML pages (all images should be visible, links should not lead to 404-pages).

• Replace big images by thumbnails using convert from ImageMagick

• Fix links in docbook, so they lead to docbook section, not UserBase pages.

• Fix application name according to KDE entity list.

• Copy index.docbook and images to your /doc folder and commit them to repository.
