user's guide #22

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I believe we need a user's guide. Same rationale as here:

http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=717

Sample pages are here:

http://sympy.googlecode.com/svn/materials/usersguide/guide.html

This is a long term issue, I don't think we should work on this right now.
But in the horizon of a few months, we should fix this.

Yes. I have looked at the sympy guide - it looks very nice. By the time we get 
to
this the right tools to write the docs with should be settled. I hate editing 
xml, so
we should keep an eye on alternatives.

Agree. We should use tools that people use though. And important here is how it 
looks
like.

I suggest to write our userguide in rst. The same way as in sympy, ipython and 
others. 

Also, there should be a chapter "how to learn FEM", with the points made in:

http://groups.google.com/group/sfepy-devel/browse_thread/thread/2dc74465058fe558
/

This is imho quite a high priority. Once we have all the tools for producing
documentation ready, we'll simply add a section whenever we implement 
something, and
that's it.

I am fine with rst. Do you have some details regarding how the groups you 
listed use
it? Yes, it is a high priority task.

Well, they are just starting. For example yesterday I wrote a pdf generation 
code for
ipython1. Well, we just go ahead, write it in rst, and maybe run it throug rst 
-> xml
-> prettydoc

The documentation is now at [1], and is based on sphinx. It's work in progress 
still...

On ubuntu the installation requirements should include python-dev (Header files 
and a
static library for Python), which is not installed by default.

Installation: setuptools also required

Installation: gfortran also required

Original comment by freevryh...@gmail.com on 13 Apr 2010 at 12:06

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
OK, I will add those to the installation docs. Do you know why gfortran is 
needed? We
have no fortran dependency...

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
hmm - not sure why gfortran was needed? BLAS perhaps? Please disregard. Found a 
spello.
