Hi Jamie, Below are two scripts for rebuilding html docs. The first is to rebuild just the table of contents. That might be helpful if you manually add modules to your lib directories. # ---------- #!perl -w use strict; use ActivePerl::DocTools; # Just rebuilts html toc. ActivePerl::DocTools::WriteTOC(); # ---------- The second script will build the html from pod and then do the toc. Unfortunately, I did not save the author name. As I recall, these came out of discussion several months ago on one of the AS list, but I do not remember which list. hth, Jim # ---------- #!/perl/bin/perl.exe -w ########################################################### # Just a quick and dirty utility to search for POD that # hasn't been converted to HTML by an install or was simply # unzipped or copied into the site or lib subdirectories. # Checks to see if an existing .html version of the POD # exists, if not converts it to HTML. After conversion the # AS Docs TOC is rebuilt so that all newly added docs are listed. # # *! NOTE: If the install location is not C:\Perl # (ie: D:\Perl or C:\OthrDir\Perl) then the # $infile_path_root and $outfile_path_root should be changed # to reflect the install location. use strict; use Pod::Html; use Pod::Find qw(pod_find); use ActivePerl::DocTools; use File::Path; my $infile_path_root = "c:/perl"; my $outfile_path_root = "c:/perl/html"; my $logfile = "c:/perl/allpod.txt"; open LOGFILE, ">>$logfile" || die "couldn't open LOGFILE $logfile\n"; &search_for_pod; print LOGFILE "-" x 60, "\n"; close LOGFILE; ActivePerl::DocTools::WriteTOC(); sub search_for_pod { my %pods = pod_find({ -verbose => 0, -inc => 1 }); foreach(sort keys %pods) { convert_pod($_); } } sub convert_pod { my $podfile = shift; $podfile =~ s#\\#/#g; if ($podfile =~ m!$infile_path_root/(.*)/(\w+)\.p.+$!i) { my $path = $1; my $name = $2; if (! -e "$outfile_path_root/$path/$name\.html") { mkpath("$outfile_path_root/$path"); pod2html( "--infile=$podfile", "--outfile=$outfile_path_root/$path/$name.html", "--podroot=$infile_path_root", "--podpath=site/lib:lib", ); print LOGFILE "-- Created $outfile_path_root/$path/$name.html\n"; } } } # ----- # pod2html --infile=ppm.pl --outfile=ppm.pl.html # pod2html --infile=ppm.bat --outfile=ppm.bat.html __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
