 @pennae:matrix.eno.space | we do check, and it has failed in the past | 17:04:26 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | at least now it can tell you where shit broke instead of having relaxng slap you with entirely incorrect error locations and messages that aren't worth the photons they're imprinted on | 17:05:41 |

| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | nixdoc changes for nixpkgs markdowning are merged 🥳 | 12:42:41 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | going to update the nixpkgs-side pr in a bit so we can hopefully get that done within the next week | 12:43:05 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/239636 preliminarily final pr for getting rid of docbook. that really should be it for the entirety of the nixpkgs repo, unless we missed something that's buried deep under the ice | 14:13:11 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | home stretch! 🎉 | 18:59:06 |

| @zmitchell:matrix.org | Feel free to post a comment if I got something wrong | 16:57:06 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | damn, has it been two months again 😨 | 17:00:18 |
| @zmitchell:matrix.org | I too forgot that time marches forward regardless of my protests | 17:01:37 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | fwiw the docbook toolchain also allows fragmenting a document into multiple outputs (nixos manual and epubs used that), but it's horrid to configure and still all docbook :/ | 17:20:07 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | moving away from xhtml outputs going to fun. ncfavier, any idea how much that would break? | 17:20:51 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | eg, does nixos-search use docbook/xhtml? | 17:21:39 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | the homepage runs xslt over manual xhtml, which is going to ... Great 😞 | 17:22:39 |
 nf | In reply to @pennae:matrix.eno.space
eg, does nixos-search use docbook/xhtml? i don't think so | 17:37:04 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | that's good already :) | 17:38:14 |
| nf | we just render (previously docbook/) markdown snippets to html with pandoc. btw, it would be nice if we could use nixos-render-docs to do that | 17:38:18 |
| nf | that way we don't need to keep link-manpages.nix around | 17:38:39 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | that pretty much just needs a new options render mode that returns a collection of fragments instead of a document, shouldn't be that much work | 17:39:14 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | the infra needed to do that is there and used internally to speed up options rendering, it pretty much only needs exported as a mode | 17:39:48 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | would still like to remove link-manpages.nix from nixpkgs soon, or rather: get that pr merged so it can't diverge and need rework | 17:44:42 |
|  Nate joined the room. | 18:02:38 |
| nf | on it | 18:11:17 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | awesome 💜 | 18:12:58 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | thanks! | 18:48:38 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | and now docbook is no longer 😌 | 18:48:50 |
 Jan Tojnar | great job | 19:01:04 |
| @pennae:matrix.eno.space | there's a lot of issues that can be closed now | 19:03:26 |
| 4 Jul 2023 |
 asymmetric | so has the markdown manual been deployed to nixos.org? | 09:01:20 |
| asymmetric | or when will that happen? | 09:01:34 |
