Akeneo PIM Documentation

The Akeneo PIM documentation

Installation

Clone this repository.

Linux

Install Sphinx.

    $ sudo apt-get install python-pip
    $ sudo pip install --upgrade pip
    $ sudo pip install sphinx~=1.5.3
    $ sudo pip install git+https://github.com/fabpot/sphinx-php.git
    $ sudo pip install git+https://github.com/mickaelandrieu/sphinxcontrib.youtube.git

Mac OS

    $ brew install python
    $ pip install sphinx
    $ pip install git+https://github.com/fabpot/sphinx-php.git
    $ pip install git+https://github.com/mickaelandrieu/sphinxcontrib.youtube.git

If you encounter the following error ValueError: ('Expected version spec in', 'sphinx~=1.5.3', 'at', '~=1.5.3') Use pip install --upgrade pip before install sphinx

Download composer curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php and run php composer.phar install.

Build the documentation

From the ./pim-docs directory, run:

    $ sphinx-build -b html . ../pim-docs-build

The documentation will be generated inside ../pim-docs-build.

Validate the documentation

From the ./pim-docs directory, run:

    $ sphinx-build -nWT -b linkcheck . _build/

Make documentation code work with pim-community-dev or standard

Install pim-community.

Then, go to Akeneo PIM src/ directory and create a symlink Acme pointing to pim-docs/src/Acme.

Add all Acme bundles in app/AppKernel.php file.

Install the Akeneo Styleguide page

The needed files for Akeneo Styleguide are installed with the composer install. When you build the documentation, you will have an empty page /styleguide/index.html. You have to add a RewriteRule on your Apache configuration to redirect to /styleguide/index.php:

    RedirectMatch 301 /styleguide/index.html /styleguide/index.php

Developer's notes

• The folder /_themes/sphinx_rtd_theme is a clone from https://github.com/snide/sphinx_rtd_theme, and was updated on 2016-07. If you want to customize the Akeneo theme, please only update /_theme/akeneo_rtd theme.

Build the documentation with Docker

Install Docker.

[optional] To update the branch list with the current pim-docs branches, use:

sed -i -e "s/^\(.*\)'versions': .*,\(.*\)$/\1'versions': ['$(git branch -l|grep -x "\(^[ *]\+[0-9]\+\.[0-9]\+.*\)\|\(^[ *]\+master\)" | cut -c 3- | sort -r | paste -sd " ")'],\2/" conf.py

From the ./pim-docs directory, run:

    $ docker build . --tag pim-docs:2.3
    $ rm -rf pim-docs-build && mkdir pim-docs-build
    $ docker run --rm \
        -v $(pwd):/home/akeneo/pim-docs/data \
        pim-docs:2.3 \
        ./build.sh 2.3 --uid $(id -u) --gid $(id -g) --no-asset-check

The docs will be built into ./pim-docs-build.
