Build the documentation

The documentation is converted to HTML and PDF using Sphinx. All Python dependencies are installed in a virtual environment, which is automatically created in the build process.

Build requirements

• Python 3 with venv and pip

Additionally to build PDFs

• Inkscape (to convert images to PDF)
• A texlive installation

If you're using Debian or Ubuntu, run

# in all cases
apt-get install python3 python3-venv python3-pip

# to build PDFs
apt-get install inkscape latexmk texlive-latex-recommended texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended

Building

To build the HTML documentation locally, run make html inside the top-level source directory, or run make latexpdf for a PDF version. You can find the resulting documentation in a sub-folder of the build directory.
