CMake:CreateQtAssistantDocs

From KitwarePublic
Jump to navigationJump to search

In an effort to more easily search the CMake documentation I hacked together a shell script (Sorry windows users, although it _may_ work in MSys) that generates Qt Assistant Documentation that is searchable and indexed. Here is the shell script.

#!/bin/bash
# This is a shell script to generate a QtAssistant set of docs from the CMake distribution.
#
# Couple of things to get you started with this file:function file
# 1. Set the CMAKE variable to the cmake executable for the CMAKE cvs if it is not
# the default on your system
# 2. I change the definition of CMAKE to 'cmake' when I generate the "module" list because
# the current CMake cvs seg faults when I use the cmake --help-module-list command
# 3. All the files are generated in the /tmp directory. If you want them somewhere else 
# set the 'generationDir' variable
# 4. Launch QtAssistant with the -profile argument, for example on OS X I use
# ./assistant.app/Contents/MacOS/assistant -profile /private/tmp/cmake_assistant_docs/CMakeDocs.adp 
# where my pwd is: ${QTDIR}/bin or
# /Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.3.5-UBLib/bin
# Change the 'qtassistant' variable to point to your QtAssistant executable

#export QTDIR="/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.3.5-UBDylib"
qtassistant="$QTDIR/bin/Assistant_adp.app/Contents/MacOS/assistant_adp"
CMAKE="/Users/Shared/Toolkits/CMake-2.6.2/cmake"

generationDir="/tmp"
assistantDir="${generationDir}/cmake_assistant_docs"
# remove any previous builds of the docs
rm -rf ${assistantDir}
mkdir ${assistantDir}

adpFile=${assistantDir}/CMakeDocs.adp
tmpHTMLFile="${generationDir}${generationDir}.html"

#-- Create a shell script to launch QtAssistant once everything is built
echo "${QTDIR}/bin/Assistant_adp.app/Contents/MacOS/assistant_adp -profile /tmp/cmake_assistant_docs/CMakeDocs.adp" > /tmp/cmakedocs.sh
chmod ugo+rwx /tmp/cmakedocs.sh
