old wiki

This wiki describes how to work with setup.py. Help:

./setup.py --help-commands

This will print a summary of all commands that setup.py understands.

To clean the sources (so that svn st returns nothing), do

./setup.py clean

The man page is in doc/man/isympy.1, and it is generated from the file doc/man/isympy.xml. To edit it, edit just the file doc/man/isympy.xml and then rebuild the man page with

  docbook2x-man doc/man/isympy.xml
  mv isympy.1 doc/man/isympy.1

Use the bin/test_pure file (see the documentation in it).

In the sympy root directory (where the setup.py is):

$ pydoctor --make-html --add-package sympy
adding directory sympy
findImportStars
210 / 210 modules parsed 
extractDocstrings
210 / 210 modules parsed 737 warnings 
finalStateComputations
writing html to apidocs using pydoctor.html.SystemWriter

a new directory apidoc is created with the documentation. Copy apidoc/* to http://sympy.googlecode.com/svn/sympy/api/

Don't forget to:

svn propset svn:mime-type text/css apidocs.css
svn propset svn:mime-type text/html *.html

Unfortunately, this doesn't work for sympy anymore.

You'll need epydoc (wajig install python-epydoc). (The output is written to ../api/ (you can change this editing the variable gen_doc.target_dir ))

svn checkout https://sympy.googlecode.com/svn/ sympy --username ondrej.certik
cd sympy/trunk
./setup.py gen_doc
cd ../api
svn propset svn:mime-type text/html *.html
svn ci
