<p>Cloning cdist from git gives you the advantage of having

a version control in place for development of your own stuff
|
|
immediately.</p>
|
|
<p>To install cdist, execute the following commands:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>git clone https://github.com/ungleich/cdist.git
|
|
<span class="nb">cd</span> cdist

<li>The released versions can be found in the tags</li>

</div></blockquote>
|

<p>Other branches may be available for features or bugfixes, but they

may vanish at any point. To select a specific branch use</p>

<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="c1"># Generic code</span>
|

git checkout -b <localbranchname> origin/<branchname>

<h4>4.2.1.3. Building and using documentation (man and html)<a class="headerlink" href="#building-and-using-documentation-man-and-html" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h4>
|
|
<p>If you want to build and use the documentation, run:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make docs
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Documentation comes in two formats, man pages and full HTML
|
|
documentation. Documentation is built into distribution's
|
|
docs/dist directory. man pages are in docs/dist/man and
|
|
HTML documentation in docs/dist/html.</p>
|
|
<p>If you want to use man pages, run:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nb">export</span> <span class="nv">MANPATH</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="nv">$MANPATH</span>:<span class="k">$(</span><span class="nb">pwd</span> -P<span class="k">)</span>/docs/dist/man
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Or you can move man pages from docs/dist/man directory to some
|
|
other directory and add it to MANPATH.</p>
|
|
<p>Full HTML documentation can be accessed at docs/dist/html/index.html.</p>
|
|
<p>You can also build only man pages or only html documentation, for
|
|
only man pages run:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make man
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>for only html documentation run:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make html
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>You can also build man pages for types in your ~/.cdist directory:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make dotman
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Built man pages are now in docs/dist/man directory. If you have
|
|
some other custom .cdist directory, e.g. /opt/cdist then use:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">DOT_CDIST_PATH</span><span class="o">=</span>/opt/cdist make dotman
