Esipuhe

Nykyinen prosessi ei ole viimeistelty, skripti on ruma, ei ollenkaan älykäs, jne... Ainoa anteeksipyyntö on, että jotenkin toimii

.

If you want to improve the process, have good Python skills, and know the docbook authoring principles, you can improve the procedure. Please contact Yurchor if you are able to help.

Preparing Pages for Conversion

  • 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
  • Make application name formatting consistent (avoid using Amaroks, 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 http://userbase.kde.org). Example for Amarok:
Amarok
Amarok/QuickStartGuide
Amarok/QuickStartGuide/GettingStarted
Amarok/QuickStartGuide/TheAmarokWindow

Tip
You can obtain the full list of pages for your application with the following script:
<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.


  • 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/
  • Copy Manual.xml to the script folder.
  • 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-processing

  • Rename Manual.xml.docbook to 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.
