Document Versioning
|

*******************
|
||||
|
||||
The https://projectacrn.github.io site has a document version selector
|
||||
at the bottom of the left nav panel. The contents of this version
|
||||
selector are defined in the ``conf.py`` sphinx configuration file,
|
||||
specifically:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: python
|
||||
|
||||
html_context = {
|
||||
'current_version': current_version,
|
||||
'versions': ( ("latest", "/latest/"),
|
||||
("0.2", "/0.2/"),
|
||||
("0.1", "/0.1/"),
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
As new versions of documentation are added, this ``versions`` selection
|
||||
list should be updated to include the version number and publishing
|
||||
folder. Note that there's no direct selection to go to a newer version
|
||||
from an older one, without going to ``latest`` first.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, doc build and publishing assumes we're generating
|
||||
documentation for the master branch and publishing to the ``/latest/``
|
||||
area on https://projectacrn.github.io. When we're generating the
|
||||
documentation for a tagged version (e.g., 0.2), check out that version
|
||||
of the repo, and add some extra flags to the make commands:
|
||||

.. code-block:: bash
