This meta-lua script takes the "raw" awesomerc.lua and turn it
into the final file and generate a documentation page from its
parsed content. It support
* Turn {{{ into markdown categories
* Turn top level comments into documentation
* Add custom documentation sections
* Parse the code to add links for each API calls
This helps generate a good entry point for new users wanting to
understand the content of rc.lua without searching the API by
hand.
Over time, this will also become the basis of the documentation.
If `rc.lua` is separated into several files, this will be easy to fix
this script. It could even do the separation itself from a monolitic
file using the already implemented {{{ parser.
This uses the new support introduced in f0f31bc305 in the docs and in
tests/run.sh, removing an useless use of cat/echo.

The requirement to call add_signal() was added to catch typos. However, this
requirement became increasingly annoying with property::<name> signals and e.g.
gears.object allowing arbitrary properties to be changed.
All of this ended up in a single commit because tests/examples fails if I first
let add_signal() emit a deprecation warning.

This system allow containers, widgets and layouts to be listed in
the documentation with an example screenshot.
It uses raw HTML due to ldoc limitations, but as it is autogenerated,
it wont be user visible.
This was only partly converted to markdown. It still refers to wiki pages with
wiki syntax, because we first have to decide on what happens with the wiki
before this can be updated.

This is the current version of the FAQ in the wiki converted to markdown, but
some IMO bogus content was stripped (e.g. references to awesome being a
non-reparenting WM).

ldoc doesn't allow to specify fields from class "A" into class "B",
so the only solution is to merge the 2.
Also, one of the most common complain on IRC since Awesome 3.0 is
that the client API doc is confusing since it is in 2 different files.
Also restore the `awful.client` doc link, point to `client`
This will avoid broken links.
Previously, the `Signals` section was shown before the `Functions`.
This was confusing and different from other framework documentation.
It partially work. Not all ldoc output display the functions at the
top, but some does. Previously, none did.
This commit also add 3 new sections:
* property: For object properties, replacing the "fields" table
from the current documentations.
* deprecated: For deprecated methods
* beautiful: For widgets theme options
Instead of copying images to ${BUILD_DIR}/docs/images, which is the directory
with the input to ldoc, this now copies the images to ${BUILD_DIR}/doc/images,
which is where ldoc generates its output. That way, the images are together with
the html files and are automatically picked up by a lot of stuff.

Instead of `client.client`, the client object is now referred to as
`client.object` and the client class as `client.class`.
This moves the documentation of `client.focus` to the class.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/349.
Adding @AWESOME_VERSION@ to the LDoc description is useful to have on
the index page. While at it, it makes the description more
verbose/correct.
For docs/02-contributing.md, it lists the current aliases for typed
parameters, prefers/mentions `@tparam` and `@treturn` only, and fixes
some minor wording.
Closes#262.
This builds and installs awesome (which runs its checks) and displays
--version.
- Build libxcb-cursor-dev and lua-lgi manually.
- A lot of dependencies are installed manually from Git or luarocks.
- Include Travis status in README.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/208.
This patch provides functions to get/set current keyboard layout.
Current implementation doesn't support any configuration of layout,
it's a merely a layout indicator and switcher, however layout
configuration can be set by tools like setxkbmap or by any third-party
tools.
This moves all of the documentation into a separate folder, which keeps
everything in one place and avoids unnecessary clutter.
This will pay off when proper guides are written for various aspects of
using awesome or contributing to it.
This also updates the building system, so that the docs are properly
generated with new directories.
