730 :: Installing from nim-0.10.2.zip and documentation

• pragus (orginal) [2015-01-07T11:23:12+01:00] view original

  The Windows installer downloads a docs.zip archive (from where?), and the git source has a tools directory with (I suppose) tools to generate the documentation.

  But how do I get/generate the documentation for offline use if I'm using the stable non-binary package (nim-0.10.2.zip)?

  It doesn't work. After creating koch (nim c koch.nim), I run ./koch web and the result is

  % ./koch web
  bin/nim cc -r tools/nimweb.nim  web/nim --putenv:nimversion=0.10.2
  config/nim.cfg(45, 2) Hint: added path: '/home/chh/.babel/pkgs/' [Path]
  config/nim.cfg(46, 2) Hint: added path: '/home/chh/.nimble/pkgs/' [Path]
  Hint: used config file '/home/chh/src/ext/nim-0.10.2/config/nim.cfg' [Conf]
  Hint: system [Processing]
  Hint: nimweb [Processing]
  Error: cannot open 'tools/nimweb.nim'
  FAILURE

  As I wrote above (well, actually implied), there isn't a tools directory in the zip distribution.
