Infrastructure updates to support new Swarm DocBook documentation: - Strip out XSLTHL; it does a poor job of highlighting the kinds of syntax included in our documentation, and it does an awful job when code to be highlighted contains other markup, such as xref, link, or replaceable. - Add in google-code-prettify (from Swarm) so that generated HTML has fairly decent syntax highlighting for many of the code examples we use. Further work on syntax highlighting, particularly for PDF output, is required. - Disable TOC generation in HTML; the HTML template already includes the full TOC as a sidebar on every page. - Update the xmlns attribute and image URL filtering. - Fix a bug in HTML page title XSL that often prevented the current section title from being included. This was more obvious in the Swarm documentation which chunks into pages by section, rather than by chapter. - Update the HTML indexer to process multiple HTML files in one pass for performance, and overall simplify the code structure. - Adjust sidebar TOC activation logic to allow Bootstrap's scrollSpy code to work with section-based chunking. - Re-introduce the "brand" markup in the HTML doc heading so that Swarm's documentation can include its logo. Other guides can do so if required, but none have been updated to do so yet. - Add facility for guide-specific custom javacsript inclusion. - Add facility to apply custom CSS classes to images in documentation. This is used in Swarm documentation to provide thumbnail, popup, and "framed" images. - Adjust xref and link text to just report the chapter or section name, without the preamble text, for example: "the section called". - Add <replaceable role="bold"> to provide a second kind of emphasis to programlistings. - Added a subtle color to <filename> content, to help distinguish from other literal text. - Removed the separator rule from the first section heading while chunking by section. - Added Swarm's orderedlist styling so that each numbered item has a circle around the number and a vertical bar indicating the extend of the item. - Added a visual indicator when a link points to an external document. - Rewrote the javascript search code to search for exact and fuzzy terms matches, as well as phrases. Relevance scoring is included, but likely needs some fine tuning to suit our documentation. |

Initial checkin of infrastructure to process DocBook XML into WebHelp format. The purpose of this change is to lay the groundwork that will allow all published Perforce documentation to be converted to HTML (and eventually PDF and other formats) in a consistent manner, independent of tools, and eventually allow for automated documentation builds. The latest versions of DocBook (1.78.1), Saxon (6.5.5), Xalan-J (2.7.1), and XSLTHL (2.1.0) are included, as well as generic customization capability and per-guide customizations. More work needs to be done to the customization layers to fully support their use from an XML authoring tool, such as oXygen, which will appear in a future change. Note: This change only includes configuration to build WebHelp for the P4SAG. Further work is required before the infrastructure can be applied to other guides. WARNING: For anyone using oXygen to produce WebHelp, there is a known incompatibility: <imagedata> tags in oXygen are verified for file existence, and the HTML is subsequently patched to resolve to the output directory. The non-oXygen WebHelp generation does not include the patch operation, so images are broken. The <imagedata> can be updated to indicate the relative path in the output directory, but then the oXygen transformation will fail. This will be fixed in a future change. |
