.. include:: /Includes.rst.txt .. _installation: ============= Installation ============= This project is not a TYPO3 extension, but a standalone application used to render documentation. If you want to learn more about how to write documentation, please check the :ref:`Contributing Guide - How to Document `. Multiple methods are provided to install the project on your local machine. You can choose whatever is easiest for you: - Using Docker natively, with a provided official container - Using Docker natively, with a locally-generated container - Using DDEV (utilizing Docker) - Using PHP .. note:: The Docker container is the recommended way to use this project for end-users. It will automatically set up all dependencies and will not interfere with your local PHP installation or project. The container can be used in any project (and in any GitHub action) without further dependencies. .. tip:: Did you know: Instead of the :bash:`docker` client you can also use the lightweight drop-in replacement `Podman `__ to run the mentioned containers by replacing all :bash:`docker` commands in the following steps with :bash:`podman`. .. _Setup_Docker: Docker ------ The Docker image is available on GitHub packages. You can pull the image with the following command. .. code-block:: shell docker pull ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest For all available tags, please check the `GitHub packages page`_. Once you have pulled the image, you can run the image to render your project's documentation. .. note:: The Docker container internally contains a tagged release version of this repository, and use that version as well to reference asset URIs of the theme on our CDN. .. code-block:: shell docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest --progress --config ./Documentation Unlike other Docker images, this image will detect the owner-user of the mounted project. This means that the files created by the Docker image will have the same owner as the files in your project. No more permission issues should occur, when files are getting generated inside the image. .. include:: ../_Includes/NoteProjectDirectoryName.rst.txt If this fails, you can resort to specifying the user: .. code-block:: shell docker run --rm --user=$(id -u):$(id -g) -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest --progress --config ./Documentation The provided image allows you to also perform a few other actions: .. code-block:: shell # Convert Settings.cfg to guides.xml: docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest migrate ./Documentation # Check guides.xml files for XML conformity docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest lint-guides-xml # Adapt guides.xml programmatically (work in progress) docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest configure \ --project-version="2.2" \ --project-title="My project title" \ --project-release="2023" \ --project-copyright="2000-2023" ./Documentation In case of errors you can increase verbose output by prefixing any command with the argument :bash:`verbose`: .. code-block:: shell # Execute verbose commands with inline setting docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest verbose (render|migrate|lint-guides-xml|configure) [arguments/options] # Execute verbose commands with inline setting, useful for i.e. external actions SHELL_VERBOSITY=3 docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/project ghcr.io/typo3-documentation/render-guides:latest (render|migrate|lint-guides-xml|configure) [arguments/options] Another way to utilize Docker is to create your own image/container. This is aimed at people who want to contribute to the underlying Documentation tool. Please see :ref:`_Building` for those steps. .. _Setup_DDEV: DDEV ---- `DDEV `__ is a utility layer on top of Docker. It allows to easily build and maintain local development instances with specific environments. This project also ships a :file:`.ddev/` configuration directory, that allows you to start a specific container in which you can render Documentation, and have an environment where you can contribute to this repository without any other requirement than Docker and DDEV. To render the documentation you can run .. code-block:: shell ddev start ddev composer install ddev composer make docs .. _Setup_PHP: PHP --- If your host environment already has a PHP binary and is able to run Composer, as well as interpret Makefile syntax (i.e. through a `build-essential` package), you can create documentation natively, without needing docker. You can run these commands locally: .. code-block:: shell composer install make docs The provided Symfony Commands can be executed via: .. code-block:: shell ./packages/typo3-guides-cli/bin/typo3-guides (migrate|lint-guides-xml|configure) .. _`GitHub packages page`: https://github.com/TYPO3-Documentation/render-guides/pkgs/container/render-guides
