Bug ID: 291202
Summary: fdp-primer overview misleadingly omits where website
build output is stored
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Books & Articles
Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: bigsneaky@duck.com
The fourth section of the FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer "Quick Start"
guide (part of the Overview chapter) discusses how to build both documentation
and website subdirectories:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc/blob/main/documentation/content/en/books/fdp-primer/overview/_index.adoc
> Always build and review the changes before submitting them.
> Running make in the documentation or website subdirectories
> will generate the documentation in HTML format.
> % make
> To reduce compile time, only one language can be compiled:
> % make DOC_LANG=en
> The build output is stored in ~/doc/documentation/public/en/articles/
> and ~/doc/documentation/public/en/books/.
The final statement seems to suggest all the previously discussed output - from
both the documentation and website subdirectories - will be stored in the two
stated directories. But build output from the website subdirectory is stored in
~/doc/website/public, which is not mentioned anywhere in the Overview chapter.
