README

This repository contains the MiniZinc documentation.

Building the docs

You need the following tools to build the documentation:

  • Python 3
  • GNU make
  • Sphinx version 1.8.0. Install it using the command pip install git+https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx
  • Sphinx Read The Docs html theme. Install it using the command pip install sphinx_rtd_theme
  • If you want to build the PDF documentation, you also need a LaTeX distribution that includes xetex, and install the following fonts: Charter, Lato and Inconsolata.

To build the HTML documentation, simply run make html. To build the PDF, run make latexpdf.

Including the MiniZinc library reference documentation

The reference documentation for the MiniZinc library can be generated automatically from the source code. For this to work, you need an installation of libminizinc (either from a binary distribution or from sources, see http://www.minizinc.org). Them run the following command:

mzn2doc --rst-output --include-stdlib --output-base $MINIZINC_DOC_SOURCE_DIR/en $LIBMINIZINC_INSTALL_DIR/share/minizinc/std/globals.mzn

Where $MINIZINC_DOC_SOURCE_DIR is your local copy of the MiniZinc documentation repository (the en directory should contain the index.rst file), and $LIBMINIZINC_INSTALL_DIR is the directory where MiniZinc is installed.
