ownCloud Documentation
======================
This is the ownCloud documentation. It currently focuses on the server, client manuals are in the respective git repositories. Because of the complexity of the server and the split into the core and apps modules, the manuals are in this separate directory.

It is using the `Sphinx Documentation Generator <http://sphinx.pocoo.org/>`_. The syntax follows the `reStructuredText <http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html>`_ style, and can also be edited from GitHub.
For PHP documentation you'll need to get the according language domain package. The documenation for PHP source is located at http://packages.python.org/sphinxcontrib-phpdomain/reference.html

Building
--------
Linux / OS X
^^^^^^^^^^^^
First make sure that these things are installed
- Python 2 (2.6.0 or better, Python 3 is not yet supported!)
- Sphinx (e.g. sudo yum install python-sphinx), on Mac: ``sudo easy_install Sphinx``
- Sphinx PHPDomain (e.g. ``sudo easy_install sphinxcontrib-phpdomain``)
- rst2pdf (e.g. ``sudo easy_install rst2pdf``)
- If you're on Arch Linux, the build script is called sphinx-build2 which will fail. Therefore you have to provide a link::
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/sphinx-build2 /usr/bin/sphinx-build
then enter any manual directory, then run ``make html``. The result can be found in the ``_build/html`` subdirectory.
PDFs can be build with the ``make latexpdf`` command and found
Windows
^^^^^^^
Running ``setup.cmd`` will install Python 2.7 and install all dependencies.
Enter any manual and clicking the "Build HTML" shortcut will create a HTML build. Likewise, "Build PDF" will build the
PDF using the more lightweight, but feature-incomplete RST2PDF tool. The results are in ``_build/html`` and ``_build/pdf``
respectively.
