<title>Documentation</title>

<para>
The purpose of documentation is to make <productname>Postgres</productname>
easier to learn, use, and develop.
The documentation set should describe the <productname>Postgres</productname>
system, language, and interfaces.
It should be able to answer
common questions and to allow a user to find those answers on his own
without resorting to mailing list support.

<sect1>
<title>Documentation Roadmap</title>

<para>
<productname>Postgres</productname> has four primary documentation
formats:

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>
Plain text for pre-installation information.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
<acronym>HTML</acronym>, for on-line browsing and reference.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Hardcopy, for in-depth reading and reference.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
<acronym>man pages</acronym>, for quick reference.

<para>
There are man pages available for installation, as well as a large number
of plain-text README-type files throughout the <productname>Postgres</productname>
source tree.

<sect1>
<title>Documentation Sources</title>

<para>
Documentation sources include plain text files, man pages, and html. However,
most new <productname>Postgres</productname> documentation will be written using the
<firstterm>Standard Generalized Markup Language</firstterm>
(<acronym>SGML</acronym>) 
<ulink url="http://www.ora.com/davenport/"> <productname>DocBook</productname></ulink>
 <firstterm>Document Type Definition</firstterm> (<acronym>DTD</acronym>).
Much of the existing documentation has been or will be converted to <acronym>SGML</acronym>.

<para>
The purpose of <acronym>SGML</acronym> is to allow an author to
specify the structure and content of a document (e.g. using the
<productname>DocBook</productname> <acronym>DTD</acronym>),  and to
have the document style define how that content is rendered into a
final form (e.g. using Norm Walsh's stylesheets).

<para>
Documentation has accumulated from several sources. As we integrate
and assimilate existing documentation into a coherent documentation set,
the older versions will become obsolete and will be removed from the
distribution. However, this will not happen immediately, and will not
happen to all documents at the same time. To ease the transition, and
to help guide developers and writers, we have defined a transition roadmap.

<para>
Here is the documentation plan for v6.5:

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
Start compiling index information for the User's and Administrator's Guides.

<listitem>
<para>
Write more sections for the User's Guide covering areas outside the reference pages.
This would include introductory information and suggestions for approaches to typical
design problems.

<listitem>
<para>
Merge information in the existing man pages into the reference pages and User's Guide.
Condense the man pages down to reminder information, with references into the
primary doc set.

<listitem>
<para>
Convert the new sgml reference pages to new man pages, replacing the existing man pages.

<listitem>
<para>
Convert all source graphics to CGM format files for portability. Currently we mostly have
Applix Graphics sources from which we can generate .gif output. One graphic is only
available in .gif and .ps, and should be redrawn or removed.

</itemizedlist>

<sect2>
<title>Document Structure</title>

<para>
There are currently five separate documents written in DocBook. Each document
has a container source document which defines the DocBook environment and other
document source files. These primary source files are located in 
<filename>doc/src/sgml/</filename>, along with many of the other source files
used for the documentation. The primary source files are:

<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>postgres.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
This is the integrated document, including all other documents as parts.
Output is generated in <acronym>HTML</acronym> since the browser interface
makes it easy to move around all of the documentation by just clicking.
The other documents are available in both <acronym>HTML</acronym> and hardcopy.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term>tutorial.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The introductory tutorial, with examples. Does not include programming topics,
and is intended to help a reader unfamiliar with <acronym>SQL</acronym>.
This is the "getting started" document.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term>user.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The User's Guide. Includes information on data types and user-level interfaces.
This is the place to put information on "why".
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term>reference.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The Reference Manual. Includes <productname>Postgres</productname> <acronym>SQL</acronym> syntax.
This is the place to put information on "how".
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term>programming.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The Programmer's Guide. Includes information on <productname>Postgres</productname>
extensibility and on the programming interfaces.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term>admin.sgml</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The Administrator's Guide. Include installation and release notes.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>

<!--
Disable for the hardcopy production release.
Too much tabular info and not very helpful in hardcopy.

<title>The Documentation Project</title>

<para>
Packaged documentation is available in both
<acronym>HTML</acronym> and <firstterm>Postscript</firstterm>
formats. These are available as part of the standard
<productname>Postgres</productname> installation. We discuss here
working with the documentation sources and generating documentation
packages.

<note>
<para>
This is the first release of new <productname>Postgres</productname>
documentation in three years. The content and environment are in flux
and still evolving.
</para>
</note></para>

<para>
The purpose of <acronym>SGML</acronym> is to allow an author to
specify the structure and content of a document (e.g. using the
<productname>DocBook</productname> <acronym>DTD</acronym>),  and to
have the document style define how that content is rendered into a
final form (e.g. using Norm Walsh's stylesheets).</para>

<para>
See <ulink url="http://nis-www.lanl.gov/~rosalia/mydocs/docbook-intro.html">
Introduction to DocBook</ulink> for a nice "quickstart" summary of
DocBook features.
<ulink url="http://www.ora.com/homepages/dtdparse/docbook/3.0/"> DocBook

This documentation set is constructed using several tools, including
James Clark's

 and Norm Walsh's 
<ulink url="http://www.berkshire.net/~norm/docbook/dsssl">Modular DocBook Stylesheets</ulink>.

<para>
Currently, hardcopy is produced by importing <firstterm>Rich Text
Format</firstterm> (<acronym>RTF</acronym>) output from
<application>jade</application> into
<productname>ApplixWare</productname> for minor formatting fixups then
exporting as a Postscript file.</para>

<para>
<ulink url="http://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/packages/TeX/systems/unix/">
<productname>TeX</productname></ulink> is a supported format for
<application>jade</application> output, but was not used at this time
for several reasons, including the inability to make minor format
fixes before committing to hardcopy and generally inadequate table
support in the <productname>TeX</productname>
stylesheets.</para>

<title>Styles and Conventions</title>

<para>
<productname>DocBook</productname> has a rich set of tags and
constructs, and a suprisingly large percentage are directly and
obviously useful for well-formed documentation. The
<productname>Postgres</productname> documentation set has only
recently been adapted to <acronym>SGML</acronym>, and in the near
future several sections of the set will be selected and maintained as
prototypical examples of <productname>DocBook</productname> usage.
Also, a short summary of <productname>DocBook</productname> tags will
be included below.

<title>Authoring Tools</title>

<para>
The current <acronym>Postgres</acronym> documentation set is written using
a plain text editor (or emacs/psgml; see below) with the content marked up using 
<acronym>SGML</acronym>.

<para>
<acronym>SGML</acronym> and <productname>DocBook</productname> do not suffer
from an oversupply of open-source authoring tools. The most common toolset is
the emacs/xemacs editing package with the psgml feature extension.
On some systems (e.g. RedHat Linux) these tools are provided in a typical full installation.

<sect3>
<title>emacs/psgml</title>

<para>
When using emacs/psgml, a comfortable way of working with
these separate files of book parts is to insert a proper DOCTYPE
declaration while you're editing them.  If you are working on this source, for instance,
it's an appendix chapter, so you would specify the document as an "appendix" instance of
a DocBook document by making the first line look like this:

<programlisting>
<sgmltag>!doctype appendix PUBLIC "-//Davenport//DTD DocBook V3.0//EN"</sgmltag>
</programlisting>

This means that anything and everything that reads <acronym>SGML</acronym> will get it
right, and I can verify the document with "nsgmls -s docguide.sgml".

</sect3>
</sect2>
</sect1>

<sect1>
<title>Building Documentation</title>

<para>
GNU <application>make</application> is used to build documentation from the DocBook sources.
There are a few environment definitions which may need to be set or modified for your installation.
The <filename>Makefile</filename> looks for 
<filename>doc/../src/Makefile</filename>
and (implicitly) for
<filename>doc/../src/Makefile.custom</filename>
to obtain environment information. On my system, the <filename>src/Makefile.custom</filename> looks like

<programlisting>
# Makefile.custom
# Thomas Lockhart 1998-03-01

POSTGRESDIR= /opt/postgres/current
CFLAGS+= -m486
YFLAGS+= -v

# documentation

HSTYLE= /home/tgl/SGML/db107.d/docbook/html
PSTYLE= /home/tgl/SGML/db107.d/docbook/print
</programlisting>

where HSTYLE and PSTYLE determine the path to <filename>docbook.dsl</filename> for <acronym>HTML</acronym>
and hardcopy (print) stylesheets, respectively. These stylesheet file names are for Norm Walsh's
Modular Style Sheets; if other stylesheets are used then one can define HDSL and PDSL as the full path
and file name for the stylesheet, as is done above for HSTYLE and PSTYLE.
On many systems, these stylesheets will be found in packages installed in 
<filename>/usr/lib/sgml/</filename>,
<filename>/usr/share/lib/sgml/</filename>,
or
<filename>/usr/local/lib/sgml/</filename>.

<para>
<acronym>HTML</acronym> documentation packages can be generated from the <acronym>SGML</acronym> source by
typing
<programlisting>
% cd doc/src
% make tutorial.tar.gz
% make user.tar.gz

<title>Hardcopy Generation for v6.4</title>

<para>
The hardcopy Postscript documentation is generated by converting the
<acronym>SGML</acronym> source code to <acronym>RTF</acronym>, then
importing into <productname>ApplixWare-4.4.1</productname>. 
After a little cleanup (see the following
section) the output is "printed" to a postscript file.

<para>
Some figures were redrawn to avoid having bitmap
<acronym>GIF</acronym> files in the hardcopy documentation. One
figure, of the system catalogs, was sufficiently complex that there
was  not time to redraw it. It was converted to fit using the
following commands:

<programlisting>
% convert -monochrome -v -geometry 500x500'>' catalogs.ps catalogs.gif
% convert -v -crop 400x500 catalogs.gif catalogs-cropped.gif
</programlisting>

We have documented experience with two installation methods for the
various tools that are needed to process the documentation.  One is
installation from <acronym>RPM</acronym>s on

from original distributions of the individual tools.  Both will be
described below.</para>

<para>
We understand that there are some other packaged distributions for
these tools.  <productname>FreeBSD</productname> seems to have them

<title>Installing Jade</title>

<step performance="required">
<para>
Read the installation instructions at the above listed
URL.

<step performance="required">
<para>
Unzip the distribution kit in a suitable place.  The command to do
this will be something like
<programlisting>
unzip -aU jade1_1.zip
</programlisting>
</para>

<step performance="required">
<para><productname>Jade</productname> is not built using
<productname>GNU Autoconf</productname>, so you'll need to edit a
<filename>Makefile</filename> yourself.  Since James Clark has been
good enough to prepare his kit for it, it is a good idea to make a
build directory (named for your machine architecture, perhaps) under
the main directory of the <productname>Jade</productname>
distribution, copy the file <filename>Makefile</filename> from the
main directory into it, edit it there, and then run
<command>make</command> there.</para>

<para>However, the <filename>Makefile</filename> does need to be
edited.  There is a file called <filename>Makefile.jade</filename> in
the main directory, which is intended to be used with <command>make -f
Makefile.jade</command> when building <productname>Jade</productname>
(as opposed to just <productname>SP</productname>, the <acronym>SGML</acronym> parser kit
that <productname>Jade</productname> is built upon). We suggest that
you don't do that, though, since there is more that you need to change
than what is in <filename>Makefile.jade</filename>, so you'd have to
edit one of them anyway.</para>

<para>Go through the <filename>Makefile</filename>, reading James'
instructions and editing as needed.  There are various variables that
need to be set.  Here is a collected summary of the most important
ones, with typical values:
<programlisting>
prefix = /usr/local
XDEFINES = -DSGML_CATALOG_FILES_DEFAULT=\"/usr/local/share/sgml/catalog\"
XLIBS = -lm
RANLIB = ranlib
srcdir = ..
XLIBDIRS = grove spgrove style
XPROGDIRS = jade
</programlisting>
Note the specification of where to find the default catalog of
<acronym>SGML</acronym> support files -- you may want to change that
to something more suitable for your own installation.  If your system
doesn't need the above settings for the math library and the
<command>ranlib</command> command, leave them as they are in the
<filename>Makefile</filename>.
</para>

<step performance="required">
<para>Type <command>make</command> to build Jade and the various

<para>
<procedure>
<title>Installing the <productname>DocBook</productname> <acronym>DTD</acronym> Kit</title>

<step performance="required">
<para>You'll want to place the files that make up the
<productname>DocBook</productname> <acronym>DTD</acronym> kit in the
directory you built <productname>Jade</productname> to expect them in,
which, if you followed our suggestion above, is
<filename>/usr/local/share/sgml/</filename>.  In addition to the
actual <productname>DocBook</productname> files, you'll need to have a
<filename>catalog</filename> file in place, for the mapping of
document type specifications and external entity references to actual
files in that directory.  You'll also want the <acronym>ISO</acronym>
character set mappings, and probably one or more versions of
<acronym>HTML</acronym>.</para>

<para>One way to install the various <acronym>DTD</acronym> and
support files and set up the <filename>catalog</filename> file, is to
collect them all into the above mentioned directory, use a single file
named <filename>CATALOG</filename> to describe them all, and then
create the file <filename>catalog</filename> as a catalog pointer to
the former, by giving it the single line of content:
<programlisting>
CATALOG /usr/local/share/sgml/CATALOG
</programlisting>

<step performance="required">
<para>
The <filename>CATALOG</filename> file should then contain three types
of lines.  The first is the (optional) <acronym>SGML</acronym>
declaration, thus:
<programlisting>
SGMLDECL docbook.dcl
</programlisting>
Next, the various references to <acronym>DTD</acronym> and entity
files must be resolved.  For the <productname>DocBook</productname>
files, these lines look like this:
<programlisting>
PUBLIC "-//Davenport//DTD DocBook V3.0//EN" docbook.dtd
PUBLIC "-//USA-DOD//DTD Table Model 951010//EN" cals-tbl.dtd
PUBLIC "-//Davenport//ELEMENTS DocBook Information Pool V3.0//EN" dbpool.mod
PUBLIC "-//Davenport//ELEMENTS DocBook Document Hierarchy V3.0//EN" dbhier.mod
PUBLIC "-//Davenport//ENTITIES DocBook Additional General Entities V3.0//EN" dbgenent.mod
</programlisting>

<step performance="required">
<para>
Of course, a file containing these comes with the
<productname>DocBook</productname> kit.  Note that the last item on
each of these lines is a file name, given here without a path.  You
can put the files in subdirectories of your main
<acronym>SGML</acronym> directory if you like, of course, and modify
the reference in the <filename>CATALOG</filename> file.
<productname>DocBook</productname> also references the
<acronym>ISO</acronym> character set entities, so you need to fetch
and install these (they are available from several sources, and are
easily found by way of the URLs listed above), along with catalog
entries for all of them, such as:
<programlisting>
PUBLIC "ISO 8879-1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN" ISO/ISOlat1
</programlisting>
Note how the file name here contains a directory name, showing that
we've placed the <acronym>ISO</acronym> entity files in a subdirectory
named <filename>ISO</filename>.  Again, proper catalog entries should
accompany the entity kit you fetch.

<para>If you want to, you can also install

<productname>TeX</productname> as a formatting backend for
<productname>Jade</productname>.  Note that this is still quite
unpolished software, and will generate printed output that is inferior
to what you get from the <acronym>RTF</acronym> backend.  Still, it
works all right, especially for simpler documents that don't use
tables, and as both <productname>JadeTeX</productname> and the style
sheets are under continuous improvement, it will certainly get better
over time.</para>

<para>To install and use <productname>JadeTeX</productname>, you will
need a working installation of <productname>TeX</productname> and
<productname>LaTeX2e</productname>, including the supported
<productname>tools</productname> and
<productname>graphics</productname> packages,
<productname>Babel</productname>, <productname><acronym>AMS</acronym>
fonts</productname> and <productname>AMS-LaTeX</productname>, the
<productname><acronym>PSNFSS</acronym></productname> extension and
companion kit of "the 35 fonts", the <productname>dvips</productname>
program for generating <productname>PostScript</productname>, the
macro packages <productname>fancyhdr</productname>,
<productname>hyperref</productname>,
<productname>minitoc</productname>, <productname>url</productname> and
<productname>ot2enc</productname>, and of course
<productname>JadeTeX</productname> itself.  All of these can be found
on your friendly neighborhood <acronym>CTAN</acronym> site.</para>

<para><productname>JadeTeX</productname> does not at the time of
writing come with much of an installation guide, but there is a
<filename>makefile</filename> which shows what is needed.  It also
includes a directory <filename>cooked</filename>, wherein you'll find
some of the macro packages it needs, but not all, and not complete --
at least last we looked.</para>

<para>Before building the <filename>jadetex.fmt</filename> format
file, you'll probably want to edit the
<filename>jadetex.ltx</filename> file, to change the configuration of
<productname>Babel</productname> to suit your locality.  The line to
change looks something like
<programlisting>
\RequirePackage[german,french,english]{babel}[1997/01/23]
</programlisting>
and you should obviously list only the languages you actually need,
and have configured <productname>Babel</productname> for.</para>

<para>With <productname>JadeTeX</productname> working, you should be
able to generate and format <productname>TeX</productname> output for
the <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> manuals by giving the
commands (as above, in the <filename>doc/src/sgml</filename>
directory)
<programlisting>
jade -t tex -d /usr/local/share/docbook/print/docbook.dsl -D ../graphics postgres.sgml
jadetex postgres.tex
jadetex postgres.tex
dvips postgres.dvi
</programlisting>
Of course, when you do this, <productname>TeX</productname> will stop
during the second run, and tell you that its capacity has been
exceeded.  This is, as far as we can tell, because of the way
<productname>JadeTeX</productname> generates cross referencing
information.  <productname>TeX</productname> can, of course, be
compiled with larger data structure sizes.  The details of this will
vary according to your installation.
