iDOC=

iDOC= is a project initiated by Peter Krefting that collects documentation (primarily text files) related to Commodore computers in various languages. Before March 1999, it was known as International Project 64.

Build

The iDOC= website is fully static and is built from this repository. Building iDOC= requires a Unix-like machine (e.g. Linux, macOS) with GNU Make and Perl 5.

On Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, this will install the requirements:

$ apt install build-essential perl

Run make in the git checkout to build:

$ git clone https://github.com/6502org/idoc.git

The build/ directory will contain the complete iDOC= website.

If the system has Python 3 installed, iDOC= can be served locally with:

$ python3 -m http.server --directory build/ --bind 127.0.0.1 8000

Repository Layout

• build/ - contains the complete iDOC= website after a successful build. This directory is what would be served by a webserver, e.g. as an Apache public directory.
• data/ - data and scripts used to build the website. The build/ directory will contain of the output of these scripts combined with the contents of static/.
• static/- files used in the build that never change. This includes the documents that are downloaded from the website (static/download/).
• sourcefiles - materials that were once used to create the documents in static/docs/. The files in this directory are not used during the build.
