Documentation and Changelog for Maliput & family.

Visit https://maliput.readthedocs.io

Summary

Maliput's documentation is generated using readthedocs. The documentation is prepared and served in this repository, in order to be built using Sphinx later on on readthedocs.

Code documentation from all the packages are collected via Doxygen. Those packages are:

• maliput
• maliput_py
• maliput_object
• maliput_object_py
• maliput_malidrive
• maliput_dragway
• maliput_multilane
• maliput_integration
• maliput_integration_tests
• delphyne
• delphyne_gui
• delphyne_demos

The ready-to-build documentation is pushed to rtd-pages branch in a daily basis. readthedocs takes over from there and updates the online documentation.

Build documentation

Requirements

• Workspace must be created, see Developer Setup.

Note: As maliput_documentation depends on delphyne repos mind following the instructions for adding them.

• Sphinx must be installed, if not:

  apt-get install python3-sphinx

Build maliput_documentation package

  colcon build --packages-up-to maliput_documentation --cmake-args " -DBUILD_DOCS=On"

This will prepare and install the files required to later on be built using sphinx-build.

Build Sphinx docs

First install requirements needed for the sphinx-build command.

pip install -r install//maliput_documentation/share/docs/requirements.txt

Run sphinx-build command:

sphinx-build install/maliput_documentation/share/docs output

The HTML pages are located in the output folder.

Visualize

To visualize it, open index.html using your preferred browser.

Note: If your workspace is containerized, execute the following outside of your container. This is because xdg-open is not installed in your container.

From the workspace root:

xdg-open output/index.html

If you encounter an error saying xdg-open is not installed, install it using the following:

sudo apt install xdg-utils
