Welcome

Rubyfaux is a Shomen-based documentation browser with an old-school ruby-lang.org style.

Features

  • Old-school ruby-lang.org style gives documentation an offical look-and-feel.
  • Quicksearch sidebar makes it easy to locate classes and methods.
  • Built on JQuery, JQuery Templates and other well supported Javascript tools.

How To Use

Generate a shomen .json file for you project.

$ cd ..
$ shomen rdoc > site/foo-1.0.0.json

See Shomen project to learn more about this.

To locally view your documentation, clone this repo to your project's webite directory (or gh-pages branch if you are crazy like that).

$ cd myproject
$ git clone http://rubyworks.github.com/rubyfaux.git site
$ cd site
$ rm -rf .git

By default it will look for doc.json so you can link that to the latest documentation file.

$ ln -s foo-1.0.0.json doc.json

Now fire up local directory webserver. The shomen command provides one (must have sinatra installed):

$ shomen server

You can also view the files directly if your browser supports local ajax calls (Firefox works. Chrome? Not so much).

$ firefox index.html

Now then, customize that template to your little hearts desire!

To view you documentation remotely, firs publish you Shomen .json file, presumably to your website, but it can be anywhere on the internet that will accept loading via ajax.

Now navigate over to the Rubyfaux site setting the doc property in the URL to the location of the file, e.g.

http://rubyworks.github.com/rubyfaux?doc=http://myorg.github.com/myapp/myapp-1.0.0.json

And there you are.

Note that if the documented project is large so too will be the Shomen .json file. In which case it take a moment for the browser to load the file. For large projects as such it is a good idea to divide documentation into a set of smaller files, rather than one big file.
