# Documentation generation
|
||||
Eluna uses a custom made documentation generator to create it's [web documentation](http://eluna.emudevs.com/).
|
||||
The generator is written in python by Patman. It works by parsing Eluna's source files for comments and then generates the HTML and javascript for the documentation based on them.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up
|
||||
This page guides you through generating the web documentation locally and explains the standards of the documentation comments for you to help us improve our documentation. To contribute with your documentation changes, create a [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/)
|
||||
|
||||
# Generating locally
|
||||
- install [python](https://www.python.org/)(2)
|
||||

|
||||
- you may need restart afterwards for the installation to properly take effect
|
||||
- install a package manager like [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/)
|
||||
- if installed pip and doesnt work, restart or try easy_install command
|
||||
- if you installed pip and it does not work, restart or try easy_install command
|
||||
- install the dependencies with manager
|
||||
- [Jinja2](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Jinja2)
|
||||
- [typedecorator](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/typedecorator)
|
||||
- [markdown](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Markdown)
|

|
||||
## Generating
|
||||
- Run in cmd `python -m ElunaDoc` when at `\LuaEngine\docs\`
|
||||
|
||||
## Documenting
|
||||
You can document functions in the Eluna source code. For examples, simply open a method header file with docs.

|
||||
Here are basic templates for a function. When defining a parameter or a return value, the type and value name are mandatory, unless the parameter type is ... (for variable arguments; don't include a name in this case).
