## Download
|
|
|
|
Download this repository as a zip, and unpack. Copy the files to a web server that can run PHP. You can also run the documentation locally using Grunt.js, which is covered at the end of this readme.
|
|
|
|
## Folders
|
|
|
|
The generator will look for folders in the `/docs` folder. Add your folders inside the `/docs` folder. This project contains some example folders and files to get you started.
|
|
|
|
You can nest folders any number of levels to get the exact structure you want. The folder structure will be converted to the nested navigation.
|
|
|
|
## Files
|
|
|
|
The generator will look for Markdown `*.md` files inside the `/docs` folder and any of the subfolders within /docs.
|
|
|
|
You must use the `.md` file extension for your files. Also, you must use underscores instead of spaces. Here are some example file names and what they will be converted to:
|
|
|
|
**Good:**
|
|
|
|
* 01_Getting_Started.md = Getting Started
|
|
* API_Calls.md = API Calls
|
|
* 200_Something_Else-Cool.md = Something Else-Cool
|
|
|
|
**Bad:**
|
|
|
|
* File Name With Space.md = FAIL
|
|
|
|
## Sorting
|
|
|
|
To sort your files and folders in a specific way, you can prefix them with a number and underscore, e.g. `/docs/01_Hello_World.md` and `/docs/05_Features.md` This will list *Hello World* before *Features*, overriding the default alpha-numeric sorting. The numbers will be stripped out of the navigation and urls.
|
|
|
|
## Landing page
|
|
|
|
If you want to create a beautiful landing page for your project, simply create a `index.md` file in the root of the `/docs` folder. This file will then be used to create a landing page. You can also add a tagline and image to this page using the config file like this:
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "Daux.io",
|
|
"tagline": "The Easiest Way To Document Your Project",
|
|
"image": "/img/app.png"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Note: The image can be a local or remote image.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
To customize the look and feel of your documentation, you can create a `config.json` file in the of the `/docs` folder. The `config.json` file is a simple JSON object that you can use to change some of the basic settings of the documentation.
|
|
|
|
###Title:
|
|

|
|

## Running Locally
|
|
|
|
You can run the docs locally using <a href="http://gruntjs.com/" target="_blank">Grunt.js</a> I assume you are familiar with how to use Grunt and have the latest version of PHP 5.4 installed which is able to run a webserver.
|
|
|
|
**Requirements:**
|
|
|
|
* Node.js
|
|
* npm
|
|
* Grunt.js
|
|
* PHP 5.4 or greater
|
|
|
|
This project contains a package.json file, so once you have the requirements installed, you can simply run a `npm install` and then `grunt` in the projects folder to start the local web server. By default the server will run at: <a href="http://localhost:8085" target="_blank">http://localhost:8085</a>
|
|
|
|
