This is the documentation repo for the eLifesciences developer resources. The documentation is based on the excellent github api documentation and it uses nanocinanoc to build the documentation pages. The api is built by parsing our [article XML] and pushing it into fi. You can inspect the eLife article objects in Fluidinfo directly.
API documentation is stored in content/, we are currently working on v1 of the namespace, and so the current documentation is in content/v1. To update or extend the documentation just add to this repo, and then rake publish. This will place the appropriate changes into a gh-pages branch, and deploy them to github. They will be available shortly thereafter at http://dev.elifesciences.org/.
If you wish to iterate on the documentation locally you can compile your changes with:
nanoc compile
You can view your changes locally with:
nanoc view
There is far more information on using nanoc at the nanoc site.
