Service doc generation docs need improving #230

Open tbar0970 opened 8 years ago

1) the sample file eg http://easyjethro.com.au/demo/resources/sample_service_doc.ott is no longer linked from anywhere 2) it needs updating 3) ideally it'd be good to have a dynamically-generated list of all the available keywords

I'm having a look at this feature for the first time. Are there other congregations still using it? If so I'll try to create some documentation to submit. The things I can't see from the code or the features at the moment are (1) keywords - particularly if it is possible to include all run sheet items including song names, song content, song CCLI... (2) Expand v Populate - I don't understand the difference yet. Any help gratefully received.

I suspect nobody is still using it.

Here's a sample template: https://github.com/tbar0970/jethro-pmm/blob/466139873da22501b72864a6d8b4c62890b90fb4/resources/sample_service_doc.ott % SERVICE_CONTENT% should give you the full content of the service.

Expand: Start with 1 template, make a copy for each congregation and replace keywords in each copy. Populate: Start with a template for each congregation, make a copy for this Sunday and replace keywords in it.

I haven't used this for ages. Have been thinking about removing it. See how you go.
