This guide is the official Opencast user's manual for the open source video capture system.
The source documentation is hosted on this Git repository: https://bitbucket.org/opencast-community/matterhorn
The documentation is written in standard markdown. The tool that is used to build the documentation is mkdocs.org
In order to build the documentation locally, you will need to install MkDocs. Check out the documentation or use the following command
$ pip install mkdocs
From there, download the source of the documentation, go to the repo and use the following command to start a simple http server and build the doc:
$ mkdocs serve
- Python
- mkdocs
In order to edit from Dillinger.io, you will need to connect your github account to Dillinger. See the left nav to do that. Once you have connected your github account, use Import From link on the top nav to import the file you want to edit (you can't import all files at the same time, but might be a good feature request).
Once you are done editing your file, just use the "Save to" link on the top nav and it will commit the changes to the github repo.
That's it!
Now go to the github repo and checkout the commit history. You will see that all everytime a "Save to Github" is done, a commit is done on github - that's the magic!
PS: We may also check out other editors - like stackedit - which could allow to see all the files at once.
Of course there is always the alternative way of editing on Github directly (as I do now).
