<div class="paragraph"><p>Erlang.mk provides rules for generating documentation from
AsciiDoc files. It can automatically build a user guide PDF,
chunked HTML documentation and Unix manual pages.</p></div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_requirements">Requirements</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>It is necessary to have <a href="http://asciidoc.org/">AsciiDoc</a>,
<a href="http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/xsltproc2.html">xsltproc</a> and
<a href="http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/">dblatex</a> installed on your
system for Erlang.mk to generate documentation from AsciiDoc sources.</p></div>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_writing_asciidoc_documentation">Writing AsciiDoc documentation</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p><a href="http://asciidoc.org/">AsciiDoc</a> is a text document format for
writing notes, documentation, articles, books, ebooks, slideshows,
web pages, man pages and blogs. AsciiDoc files can be translated
to many formats including HTML, PDF, EPUB, man page.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <a href="http://asciidoc.org/userguide.html">AsciiDoc user guide</a>
describes the AsciiDoc syntax.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <a href="https://github.com/ninenines/erlang.mk/tree/master/doc/src/guide">Erlang.mk user guide</a>
is written in AsciiDoc and can be used as an example. The entry
file is <a href="https://github.com/ninenines/erlang.mk/blob/master/doc/src/guide/book.asciidoc">book.asciidoc</a>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Erlang.mk expects you to put your documentation in a specific
location. This is <em>doc/src/guide/</em> for the user guide, and
<em>doc/src/manual/</em> for the function reference. In the case of
the user guide, the entry point is always <em>doc/src/guide/book.asciidoc</em>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For manual pages, it is good practice to use section 3 for
modules, and section 7 for the application itself.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_configuration">Configuration</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>All of the AsciiDoc related configuration can be done directly
inside the files themselves.</p></div>
