dhelp_parse
dhelp_parse(8) Debian Linux manual dhelp_parse(8)
NAME
dhelp_parse - Debian online help parser
SYNOPSIS
dhelp_parse [ -r | -i | -a doc-base_file | -d doc-base_file ]
DESCRIPTION
This program is used by package developers to register the documents included in a package.
In most cases it is called by install-docs (see doc-base package), which in turn is called from the postinst and prerm scripts of a Debian
package.
An index of the registered documents is written in the directory /usr/share/doc/HTML
OPTIONS
-h,--help
Displays the help page.
-a Adds the documentation found in the given doc-base files to the dhelp database.
-d Deletes the documentation found in the given doc-base files from the dhelp database.
-i Does an incremental update of the documents index for all documentation added with the -a switch after the last index update.
-r Ignored, kept for compatibility.
PACKAGE DEVELOPERS
You should usually rely on install-docs to do the work for you, but if for some reason you want to use dhelp_parse directly (not recom-
mended!), you have to call it like this:
postinst
if [ -x /usr/sbin/dhelp_parse ]; then
dhelp_parse -a /var/lib/doc-base/documents/foo
fi
prerm
if [ -x /usr/sbin/dhelp_parse ]; then
dhelp_parse -d /var/lib/doc-base/documents/foo
fi
Note that /var/lib/doc-base/documents/foo has to be a valid doc-base file (see doc-base documentation).
