Hello,

I met with problem to build html documents.
There are many opinions to set.
I want to understand how you would build English HTML document.
Then I could follow the similar steps to build translated document.

Any links sharing with me?

Best regards
Ying Chun Guo (Daisy)

Daisy,

I did a little playing around and want to share what I did:

1) To build the pot files:

$ sphinx-build -b gettext doc/playground-user-guide/source/
doc/playground-user-guide/locale/

This creates a file per directory or top-level file.

2) so, next i run "msgcat *.pot > playground-user-guide.pot" to create a
single pot file

3) I would upload the pot file

4) We can download it again

5) And then it's running msgmerge to merge the content back to the
multiple files.

We really should have only one file per book - otherwise we get
duplicated "index.pot" files from each book and have multiple books in a
repo.

I haven't had time to test all of this together properly and then create
some simple script. If you can tell me how to do it properly, I can help
with enhancing the infra scripts so that this is done automatically -
but I'm also happy to review any patches and answer questions ;)

Thanks
Andreas
