Prepare build

On FreeBSD the following packages are required:

pkg install python py311-pip jpeg-turbo gmake

Install Sphinx, our default theme and contrib packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade

Update API endpoints

A script is provided to update the api endpoint documentation, this can be executed using:

./collect_api_endpoints.py --repo core /path/to/core/repository
./collect_api_endpoints.py --repo plugins /path/to/plugins/repository

Generate HTML documents

gmake html

(gmake clean to flush)

Live preview of HTML documents

Use sphinx-autobuild to track source for changes and get a live preview served via http://localhost:8000.

pip install sphinx-autobuild
sphinx-autobuild source build/html

Publish BIOS ROM Images

BIOS ROM images are written to Deciso appliances using a FAT32 formatted (thumb) drive containing in its root directory the combined contents of the source/hardware/files/BIOS_update_sources.zip file and the latest platform-specific compressed BIOS ROM image. The BIOS_update_sources directory contains the EFI boot structure to trigger the startup.nsh file when booting from the drive and kickstart the update using the LATEST.FD file.

The SHA256 hash of the BIOS_update.sources.zip file:

0cf1b042223482ea073a7a3599d6170be7c849ff8399936cf5a9db1ec5406dcf  BIOS_update_sources.zip

To create a publishable archive, use the provided make_bios.py script and give it the platform type, version number and source .fd file:

./make_bios.py --platform <A10|A20|A30> --version <version> --source <.FD filename>

Example output:

2d5143f221fa120ef6d5c8799a90bd2c08e8238b3b9dd350327336d0605944a6 source/hardware/files/A10_v30_bios.tar.gz

A SHA256 hash of the resulting compressed archive is provided for integrity checking.
