This directory contains some documentation regarding the MLTSHP API. The documentation is in REST format and is built using Sphinx. If any updates are made to the API, corresponding updates should be made to this documentation to keep things in sync. The documentation is readable through the site, but as static HTML, which has to be built from this directory. The resulting HTML files need to be checked in along with the API code changes.
To build the documentation HTML files, you'll need to do the usual Python virtualenv steps if you haven't already. Then, with the virtualenv active, install the special requirements like this:
$ pip install -r developerdocs/requirements.txt
(You'd issue this from the top of the MLTSHP repository, with the virtualenv for it already active.)
With the setup steps done, building the documentation is just a matter of executing
the make command from the directory.
$ cd developerdocs
$ make
That should produce the updates to the HTML files (in templates/developers). You will need to add any updates to those files to your git branch and commit them along with your API changes.
