This repository tracks the source files for the DITA Open Toolkit documentation.

We welcome contributions to the DITA-OT documentation. Please review the guidelines for contributing to this repository before creating issues or opening pull requests.

To generate additional topics and build the documentation output, run the Ant build script from the root level of the docs repository and specify the target output format.

For example, to build HTML output, enter the following on the command line:

$ ant html

Output will be generated in the /out folder of the docs repository. This folder is created automatically if it doesn't exist. (Git ignores the contents of this folder so you don't inadvertently commit these transient files.)

NOTE: The build script assumes that the $DITA_HOME environment variable or the dita.home Ant property is set to point to a working DITA-OT installation:

either:

$ export DITA_HOME=/path/to/dita-ot
$ ant ...

or:

$ ant -Ddita.home=/path/to/dita-ot
