| managor | I decided to come here and ask in person. Any chance you could make the man pages available online? https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/please-make-the-manual-pages-of-your-tools-available-online/22766 | 17:04 |
|---|---|---|
| managor | Making pages for the tldr project is hard when you don't have access to the full documentation of something like `sfdk scrape` | 17:05 |
| x2s | I think this would be a good question for the weekly community meeting | 17:06 |
| x2s | next on is here: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/community-meeting-on-24th-april-2025/22836 | 17:06 |
| x2s | *biweekly | 17:06 |
| managor | I don't consider myself a community member of SailfishOS, but I'll add that as a topic proposal | 17:10 |
| mal | I think sfdk doesn't even have man pages, probably the --help functionality could be improved if it's not clear | 17:12 |
| mal | or if it's not working as it should | 17:13 |
| managor | I see. I'm only going by what a random contributor said. I don't know how to install sfdk so I'm unable to test them | 17:14 |
| mal | I need to see how that --help works in it | 17:14 |
| managor | https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/pull/16089 Here | 17:15 |
| managor | We usually involve a more information link on our pages but for some of these pages there was no trace of that command anywhere on the internet | 17:15 |
| mal | probably a bit complicated because sfdk wraps calls to other commands, scrape is part of mb2 which gets called somehow from sfdk | 17:24 |
| mal | this is how mb2 help for scrape looks like https://github.com/sailfishos/sdk-setup/blob/master/sdk-setup/src/mb2#L844 | 17:25 |
| managor | Is the sfdk source code not available anywhere? | 17:35 |
| mal | https://github.com/sailfishos/sailfish-qtcreator/tree/master/src/tools/sfdk | 18:11 |
| mal | it seems "sfdk scrape --help" works fine | 18:12 |
| managor | Thanks, I'll use this until better documentation appears | 18:52 |
| managor | Thanks for the link. That helped a lot. | 20:02 |
| managor | I got all of the longform/shortform variations documented https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/pull/16162 | 20:03 |
