Documentation
=============
The jq website, manpages and some of the tests are generated from this
directory. The manual is a YAML file in `content/manual`.
To build the documentation (including building the jq manpage), you'll
need `python3` and `pipenv`. You can install `pipenv` like so:
pip install pipenv
Though, you may need to say `pip3` instead, depending on your system. Once
you have `pipenv` installed, you can install the dependencies by running
`pipenv sync` from the `docs/` directory.
Also, you may need to run `virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 venv/` and
then `source venv/bin/activate`, and only then `pipenv sync`.
Once this is done, rerun `./configure --enable-docs` in the jq root directory and then
the `Makefile` will be able to generate the jq manpage. You can just run
`make jq.1` to build the manpage manually, and `make tests/man.test` to
update the manual tests.
To build the website, run `pipenv run python3 build_website.py` in the `docs/` directory.
To serve them locally, you can run `python3 -m http.server -d output`.
