The CI currently doesn't install (correctly?) the "discount" formatter,
so ldoc fallbacks to the default "markdown" formatter. However, if we
try to install the discount or lua-discount, the doc rendering is
slightly different from what we currently have.
All of this was already mentioned in the issue "Generate apidoc doesn't
use the discount markdown formatter #3500".
This change removes the configuration in the `config.ld` file, so we
don't have the "format: using built-in markdown" message any longer in
in the CI logs.
Note that I also removed the lua-discount installation from the
`apidoc.yml` workflow, since it wasn't working. (I guess it installs the lua
package for a different version of lua than the one used by ldoc)
The goal is to catch cases where the return value exists, but is
forgotten. There was a large enough number of them to turn this
into a real check. Initially, I just wanted to implement it to fix
the problems, then delete the code. But since this is so common, I
think it is worth the annoyance.
It no longer does `foo(bar[,bar=42])` and will rather do `(foo, bar)`.
This is easier to read and some new user are no familiar with the
optional parameter convention. They copy/paste the mangled value in
their config and end up with invalid Lua.
It might be a good idea to deprecate them and move them to the tag
class. However, these APIs are not exactly well designed, so
moving them wont solve that. Some day the dynamic client layout will
hopefully be merged and send these functions to the heap of smelly
bad ideas trash.
Add a new ldoc tag `@hidden`. This tag allows us to keep documentation
for magic methods (e.g. `wibox.widget.base:get_visible`) but prevent
it from being part of the documentation used by final users.
This commit adds a new ldoc custom tag `@supermodule`. It has to be
used at the module level. It should refer to the module
supermodules.
This tag can be used multiple time by the same module, but we ignore
other calls (for now?) as (AFAIK) we only use one way inheritance.
This tag is used in the ldoc template to find modules hierarchy and
draw the inheritance tree. It makes it easy to find and navigate to
parents modules.
The previous index.html was scary and the most useful links were
at the bottom. This commit fixes that.
It also adds an image of the default config with some labels to name
all visible components.
This will break some existing links, but oh well, it isn't the first
time and some websites cannot render URLs with spaces in them. This
means external references to some of the input doc are currently
impossible.
This has to be in its own commit otherwise Travis will fail. This
is because it will keep the file in the build directory when
iterating all commits. Then `ldoc` will fail because the file doesn't
have documentation. If `config.ld` is updated first, then it will
fail because `ruled/init.lua` doesn't exist yet. When it is done
in a separate commit, then `config.ld` is already updated and comes
with `init.lua`.
This also pulls in part of the permission framework to ensure
backward compatibility is kept.
`awful.autofocus` was always weird. It is a module part of `awful`,
but it was never part of `awful` `init.lua`. Rather, `rc.lua` was
the sole place it was used. It behave exactly like a request, but
predate them by years. As I cleanup the request:: API before the
permissions API gets formalized, this has to be fixed now.
It isn't deprecated in this commit because it makes too many tests
fail. Another pull request will solve that by adding the "API level"
concept to AwesomeWM so I can change the behavior without breaking
existing configs. With that, the behavior of `autofocus` will be
enabled by default with the permissions to disable it.
They currently fit the general concept of a `request::` in the sense
that they are not property related and have "request handlers".
The commit also add deprecation for signals.
The reason for this fits within the larger standardization project.
Non-namespaced signals will eventually be renamed. This has started
a long time ago.
What is old is new again. Once upon a time, there was a `startup`
parameter to the `manage` signal. It is now back in the form of
a context.
Finally, this commit removes the `manage` section of `rc.lua`. It no
longer did anything worthy of being in the config. Each of its
important parts have been moved out over the years and the last
remaining bit is always required anyway. The code has been moved
to `client.lua`.
It is optional for now, but maybe in the future we can make
it mandatory. It will allow to have some "New!", "Not released"
messages or something in the doc. That would allow us to share
most of the doc between the stable and git versions.
