English version of SDKBOX documentation

Intro

SDKBOX doc site uses mkdocs to generate static pages from markdown files

Install

To view the site locally, you have to install mkdocs first

sudo pip install mkdocs

Documents generator

• We use generator to generate cocos plugins' documents, so don't edit files in docs/plugins/ manually. Instead, use the following command to generate documents
• If you want to edit cocos plugins, you should edit the templates at src/<plugin name>

cd src
./doc.py all

Some documentations require jsdoc

Make sure you install nodejs and jsdoc with

npm install jsdoc -g

Also you need to set CSC_PATH that points to SDKBOX repository

Build

You can start a local server by

mkdocs serve

Open http://127.0.0.1:8000/ in browser

Or, build a static site folder and serve it with a web server

mkdocs build
cd site
python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Editor

We recommend using marked2 while editing markdown document, because it supports the way we embed documents.

However use local server is equally efficient.

After editing the docs, you can test them with running publish.sh test. This command will build and run a server in your local enviornment.

Publish

Use the following command to publish document to live

brew install jsdoc3
export CSC_PATH=/path/to/sdkbox_core/

mkdocs gh-deploy --clean

Executing publish.sh is a convenient way to publish the docs.
