Django's PDF docs are not working correctly: https://media.readthedocs.org/pdf/django/latest...

The document that's actually there should be embedded in the main document. It's named "triage_process.pdf" when the docs are built locally.

I wonder if something might have changed on readthedocs recently? I don't really have any ideas otherwise.

timograham: perhaps, we touched the PDF code a few weeks ago

ericholscher: thanks, can I provide any assistance or should I open a ticket?

timograham: so multiple PDF's get generated?

Well, they are included in our repo: https://github.com/django/django/tree/master/do...

they are copied to the _build/latex directory when building the pdf locally

ahh

hmm

so we don't have a good way to support multiple PDF's at the moment

i guess we could zip them

we don't want/need to make them available for download

right, but how do we know which PDF to serve?

it seems like maybe they are being renamed and then clobbering the main document or something

not sure why it just stopped working though

see https://readthedocs.org/builds/django/1281413/

"Output written on django.pdf (1454 pages, 5612003 bytes)."

all looks good there

yea, we're just copying the wrong file

the file that is copied is called "triage_process.pdf" so it would be the last one to sort alphabetically

if that helps...

yea, we're just grabbing the last PDF in the list -- which is obviously bad behavior :)

will push a patch that uses the slug if it exists

thanks! will check it tomorrow. Django ticket is https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/22385 btw

ive been unsuccessfully searching on how to have rtd use python3

version of sphinx to generate the documentation, anyone have any pointers for this?

do i have to run it within a virtualenv?

stokachu: do you mean using our Py3 builder or running rtd itself on Py3?

Wraithan: using the py3 builder with the sphinx py3 version

i have a project that is only python3 compatible

I don't know about the sphinx part, but it should just be using the drop down in the project settings to select py3

I thought sphinx was py3 compat without needing a special version

at least the version we are running

in the admin section i have it selected to use cython3

but the build logs still show it using python2.7

did you build it once using a virtualenv with py2?

it could need a wipe

lemme try to wipe those

stokachu: ^

is there a way to just wipe them all?

im going to just delete it and re-import

see if i can get it to work then

stokachu: ok
