Re: [Vala] getting the valadoc.org documentation on a local server



Crawling valadoc.org isn't a very nice thing to do, and it yields a
sub-optimal results (for example, no searching).

If you want to access valadoc.org content offline the right way to do it
is to download the devhelp books like Florian pointed out, then use the
devhelp application to browse them.  This keeps the load on valadoc.org
low and gives you something that is much more usable.

Hey Jezra,

Please do not use wget. You wouldn't like the result.

the main page?

valadoc.org might look different in your browser.


With best regards

My previous attempt to harvest the documentation included using wget.
Unfortunately I don't recall why it didn't work for me, nor do I
remember which flags I used with wget. I am currently trying again with
'wget -rk http://valadoc.org'

Wget can clone an entire HTTP website(even convert links and images

The alternative is to build all packages with vapi-gen, doesn't
really recommended for you :-)

Hello,
Quite often, I travel to an area with no internet and do a bit of
code hacking and I would really like to be able to have the
valadoc.org documentation available on my development machine. Is
there an easy way to get the documentation?
