<h1>Rarian Scrollkeeper Compatibility</h1>
<p>In addition to its new (and better) meta-data format, Rarian also
provides backwards compatibility for scrollkeeper. This section
outlines the basics of scrollkeeper files and how to use them. Don't
expect too much though.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: If you are using GNOME, it is strongly
recommended that you use <em>gnome-doc-utils</em>, which is described
on <a
href="http://live.gnome.org/GnomeDocUtilsCreateNew">live.gnome.org</a>.</p>
<h2>Scrollkeeper Meta-data files</h2>
<p>Scrollkeeper uses <em>omf</em> files, which are XML based. The
main text elements that are of interest are:</p>
<dl>
<dt>title</dt>
<dd>The title of the document</dd>
<dt>description</dt>
<dd>The description of the document (the blurb that appears in table
of contents)</dd>
<dt>creator</dt>
<dd>The creator of the documentation</dd>
<dt>maintainer</dt>
<dd>The person that currently looks after the documentation</dd>
<dt>type</dt>
<dd>The type of the documentation ("user's guide" etc.)</dd>
<dt>date</dt>
<dd>The last revision date of the documentation</dd>
</dl>
<p>Other fields that have attributes:</p>
<dl>
<dt><em>node</em></dt>
<dd><em>attributes</em>: what is does</dd>
<dt>version</dt>
<dd>identifier: Who knows?,<em> date</em>: As the date field</dd>
<dt>subject</dt>
<dd><em>category</em>: Which category the document belongs to. A list of
categories can be found on <a
href="http://scrollkeeper.sourceforge.net/documentation/categories.html">
the scrollkeeper website</a></dd>
<dt>format</dt>
<dd><em>mime</em>: the mime type of the document, <em>dtd</em>: the dtd of the document
(like "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN")</dd>
<dt>identifier</dt>
<dd><em>url</em>: The URI of the actual documentation (bet you were wondering
where that was, weren't you?)</dd>
<dt>language</dt>
<dd><em>code</em>: The language code describing the language the document
described by the meta-data is in..</dd>
<dt>relation</dt>
<dd><em>seriesid</em>: The unique scrollkeeper seriesid. Can be generated
using the <em>scrollkeeper-gen-seriesid</em> program.</dd>
<dt>rights</dt>
<dd><em>type</em>: The license the documentation is available under,
<em>license.version</em>: The specific version of the license, <em>holder</em>: Who
actually holds the license.</dd>
</dl>
<h2>Example scrollkeeper file</h2>

golden eggs.

</resource>
</omf>
</pre>
<p>Basically, it's easier to copy this example and modify it to suit
your needs than to try and write your own.</p>
<p>Normally, the name of your omf files (after installation) should
be <package name>-<langcode>.omf. Before installation,
you can name it whatever you want. However, I'd recommend:</p>
<pre><package name>-<langcode>.omf.in</pre>
<p>So for the beanstalk example, the distributed file (in source
archives, i.e. to allow people to install it anywhere) would be:</p>
<pre>beanstalk-C.omf.in</pre>
<p>Which is then converted using <em>scrollkeeper-preinstall</em>,
described below.</p>
<h2>Installing documentation</h2>
<p>Scrollkeeper installation is a little ... quirky. First, copy
your actual documentation to where you want. To install the
meta-data, fist run <em>scrollkeeper-preinstall</em> using the
arguments like:</p>
<pre>scrollkeeper-preinstall <installed doc name> <current omf name> <new omf name></pre>
<p>For example, for the beanstalk manual, this might look like:</p>
<pre>scrollkeeper-preinstall /usr/share/beanstalk/manual/C/beanstalk.xhtml beanstalk-pre-C.omf beanstalk-C.omf</pre>
<p>After that, you can now copy the newly generated omf file into
<prefix>/share/omf/<name>/ where <name> is generally
the name of your package. Repeat this procedure for each language.</p>
<p>Afterward, you can now run <em>scrollkeeper-update</em>. This has
a few options you must specify to get the correct behaviour. This
will need some tweaking, but in general:</p>
<pre>scrollkeeper-update -o <prefix>/share/omf</pre>
<p>Should get you reasonably close. (If using Rarian, this will be
sufficient).</p>
<p>And that's it. You'll probably want to put this stuff in your
makefiles. I have no idea how to do all this. I'd recommend looking
for other packages that use scrollkeeper and adapt their stuff. (It's
like the old autoconf joke - only 2 people have ever written a
configure.in, everyone else just copies them)</p>
