Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: docidx-1.0.0
With apologies, I now announce docidx-1.0.1 which fixes a problem kindly pointed out by Jack Henahan. If you tried to install docidx using "cabal install" over the weekend and failed, please try again now. The docidx-1.0.0.tar.gz uploaded to hackage on Friday was missing most of its source code (everything except its Main module in fact), because I hadn't added an "other-modules" field to docidx.cabal. I hadn't actually tried to build from that tarball, so I didn't spot this: I had assumed that if I could "cabal install" in my source directory, then the tarball (produced by cabal sdist) would work too. (And yes, I've tested this version before announcing it! :-) ) Apologies again, and many thanks to Jack for pointing this out. -Andy ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I've been using docidx for a while now. It's a great little tool. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a centralized documentation tool.

[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: docidx-1.0.0
Hi all. I'd like to announce docidx, a new tool for Haskell documentation: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/docidx http://github.com/gimbo/docidx.hs docidx is a program which creates a static HTML page indexing your installed packages, with links to your local haddock docs and to each package's hackage page. It covers global and user packages, and handles multiple installed versions sensibly. Here's how the output looks: http://github.com/gimbo/docidx.hs/raw/master/examples/example.png The idea is to complement the "index by module name" which Cabal creates and maintains. Sometimes you want to find things by package. :-) (But note that unlike Cabal's index, docidx's isn't automatically updated when you install a new package; so, I run it once an hour from cron.) Please see the github page for more details, including customisation options. Hopefully somebody will find this useful. Maybe one day it could be part of cabal-install? :-) Thanks! -Andy PS: A bit of history/due credit: Martijn van Steenbergen did something similar in PHP in early 2009: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe/53531/focus=53572 ; then I wrote a static version in Python later that year: http://gimbo.org.uk/blog/2009/09/23/ ; then Andy Price ported that to Haskell: https://github.com/andyprice/docidx.hs ; finally, I rewrote that to build the index via Cabal rather than walking the filesystem directly - and here we are. -- Andy Gimblett hask...@gimbo.org.uk ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
