* overview-manual: remove confusing and unnecessary paragraph about site.confMichael Opdenacker2022-05-101-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The explanations which precede and follow are sufficient. The removed text seemed to suggest to use conf/site.conf to specify the location of another conf/site.conf file. Another issue was that the way to override conf/site.conf settings through conf/local.conf was described before explaining that conf/site.conf is processed before conf/local.conf.

* docs: replace remaining ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO`Quentin Schulz2021-07-161-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few occurences appeared between the time the original patch was sent and it was applied, this fixes it. Also, the original patch didn't take into account lowercase terms, this is now fixed, see module_autoload for example. Finally, as is often the case with regexp, there was a typo in it that didn't make it match as much as it should have. The script that is used to do the replacement of ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO` is the following Python code: import re from pathlib import Path from runpy import run_module import contextlib import io import sys re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([a-zA-Z_0-9]*)') terms = [] new_terms = set() with contextlib.redirect_stdout(io.StringIO()) as f: run_module('sphinx.ext.intersphinx', run_name='__main__') objects = f.getvalue() match = re_term.search(objects) while match: if match.group(1): terms.append(match.group(1)) match = re_term.search(objects, match.end()) for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'): with open(rst, 'r') as f: content = "".join(f.readlines()) for term in terms: content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s+[~=-]{{{:d},}})'.format(term, len(term)), r':term:`\1`', content) with open(rst, 'w') as f: f.write(content) This script takes one argument as input: an objects.inv. Bitbake's can be gotten from https://docs.yoctoproject.org/bitbake/objects.inv. The objetcs.inv from the current git repo can be gotten from documentation/_build/html/objetcs.inv after running `make html`. Note that this excludes from replacement terms that appear in section titles as it requires refs to be changed too. This can be automated too if need be but right now it looks a bit confusing to have an anchor link (for sections) also have a term/reference link in it. I am not sure this is desired today. This is the result of two runs of the aforementioned script, once with Bitbake objects.inv and once with this repo's.
