These instructions are intended for contributors. If you want to read the book, see: https://crigroup.gitbooks.io/osrobotics/content/ (live version), or http://www.osrobotics.org/osr/ (published version).

Requirements

Installing GitBook is easy and straightforward. You just need:

  • NodeJS (v4.0.0 and above is recommended)

Install and configure nodejs

You can install nodejs from the Ubuntu package repositories:

sudo apt-get install nodejs

Now, let's create a symbolic link so that we can use the npm command:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

Create a directory for the packages:

mkdir -p ~/.npm_packages

Indicate to npm where to store the packages. In your ~/.npmrc file add:

prefix=~/.npm_packages

Ensure npm will find installed binaries and man pages. Add the following to your ~/.bashrc file:

NPM_PACKAGES="~/.npm_packages"
PATH="$NPM_PACKAGES/bin:$PATH"
# Unset manpath so we can inherit from /etc/manpath via the `manpath` command
unset MANPATH # delete if you already modified MANPATH elsewhere in your config
export MANPATH="$NPM_PACKAGES/share/man:$(manpath)"

Finally, source your ~/.bashrc file manually:

source ~/.bashrc

Install and configure gitbook

Simply run the following command to install GitBook

sudo apt-get install npm
sudo npm install gitbook-cli -g

Clone this repository

mkdir -p ~/git; cd ~/git
git clone https://github.com/crigroup/osrobotics.git

Build and serve locally

cd ~/git/osrobotics
gitbook install
gitbook serve

If everything is right, the website will be served here: http://localhost:4000

Upload to osrobotics.org

rsync -r -a -v -e  "ssh -p2222" --delete _book/ user@server:osrobotics/osr/
