The current process is not polished, the script code is ugly, not intelligent enough, etc.. The only excuse is that it works somehow {{Smiley}}.
If you want to improve the process, have good Python skills, and know the docbook authoring principles, you can improve the procedure. Please contact [[User_talk:Yurchor|Yurchor]] if you are able to help.
== Preparing Pages for Conversion ==
* Check that the pages of your manual follow the [[Special:myLanguage/Tasks_and_Tools|author guidelines of UserBase]] and [[Special:myLanguage/Typographical_Guidelines|typographical guidelines]].
* Check if every page has its header according to the level of this page in table of contents.
:{| |+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 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Table traditional wiki formatting].
* Make application name formatting consistent (avoid using '''Amarok'''s, do use '''Amarok's''').
* Ensure that ''all'' images are in PNG format.
* Remove all non-printable characters from image names.
===Export===
* Prepare the page list (strip from UserBase addresses <nowiki>http://userbase.kde.org</nowiki>). Example for '''Amarok''':
{{Input|1=Amarok Amarok/QuickStartGuide Amarok/QuickStartGuide/GettingStarted Amarok/QuickStartGuide/TheAmarokWindow Amarok/QuickStartGuide/TheMusicCollection Amarok/QuickStartGuide/Playlists Amarok/QuickStartGuide/TheContextView Amarok/QuickStartGuide/HowToDealWithProblems Amarok/QuickStartGuide/Glossary Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/Toolbar Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/MediaSources Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/ContextPane Amarok/Manual/AmarokWindow/PlaylistPane Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/CollectionScanning Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/CoverManager Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/DynamicPlaylists Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/AutomaticPlaylistGenerator Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/ExternalDatabase Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/AFT Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/Moodbar Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/WorkingWithMediaDevices Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/SavedPlaylists Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/PlaylistFiltering Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/QueueManager Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/SearchInCollection Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/TagEditor Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/OrganizeCollection Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/Transcoding Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/ScriptManager Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/RemoteCollections Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/RemoteCollections/Ampache Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/RemoteCollections/DAAP Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/RemoteCollections/Samba Amarok/Manual/AdvancedFeatures/RemoteCollections/UPnP Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/AmarokMenu Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/ViewMenu Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/Playlist Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/Tools Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/Settings Amarok/Manual/MenuAndCommandReference/Help Amarok/Manual/KeybindingReference Amarok/Manual/KeybindingReference/GlobalShortcuts Amarok/Manual/KeybindingReference/AmarokShortcuts Amarok/Manual/TroubleshootingAndCommonProblems Amarok/Manual/AmarokOnOtherPlatforms/Non-KDE Desktops Amarok/Manual/AmarokOnOtherPlatforms/Windows Amarok/Manual/AmarokOnOtherPlatforms/OSX Amarok/Manual/FAQ Amarok/Manual/Credits_and_License}}
{{Tip|1=You can obtain the full list of pages for your application with the following script:<!--}}-->
{{Input|1=<nowiki><DPL> nottitlematch = %/__|%/zh-%|%(%) titlematch = Amarok% namespace = Main columns = 1 format = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],, </DPL></nowiki>}}
<!--{{-->Replace '''''Amarok''''' with the name of your application, put it on your user page, and click on <menuchoice>Preview</menuchoice>. Rearrange the list according to the ToC of your manual. }}
* Go to the [[Special:Export|export page]].
* Paste the page list into the <menuchoice>bigger</menuchoice> text field.
* Click on <menuchoice>Export</menuchoice>. [[File:XML_export.png|350px|center|thumb|Export of Amarok manual pages]]
* Save the file. The saved file will be called <tt>Manual.xml</tt> in what follows.
===Conversion===
* Install Subversion package for your system.
* Checkout the latest version of conversion script: {{Input|1=svn checkout --depth=files <nowiki>svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/work/doc/</nowiki>}}
* Copy <tt>Manual.xml</tt> to the script folder.
* Run {{Input|1=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 {{Input|1=python wiki2docbook.py -s Manual.xml}} if you need not to download images.
===Post-processing===
* Rename <tt>Manual.xml.docbook</tt> to <tt>index.docbook</tt>.
* Check if conversion was done correctly: {{Input|1=checkXML index.docbook}}
* Fix the errors (better on UserBase pages).
* Convert docbook to HTML: {{Input|1=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 <tt>index.docbook</tt> and images to your <tt>/doc</tt> folder and commit them to repository. [[File:K3b_docs.png|350px|center|thumb|K3b docs on UserBase in Opera and converted page in Konqueror.]]
