目标和受众
===============================================================================

This guide should serve to be an entry level for all Ethereum users and developers.
The goal is to create documentation with information, short tutorials, and examples that will cover all of the basic and intermediate functionality of using Ethereum to interact with dapps or develop a dapp.

Any information that is overly specific, technical, or not necessary to accomplish the documentation's goal will remain on the Ethereum Github Wiki. It may be referenced in this guide if necessary.

Although much of the information will be similar between the Frontier Guide and the Homestead Guide, efforts need to be made to make sure the information ported over is still accurate.
This document is client agnostic, and examples and tutorials may be based on any client that the author decides to write on, as long as a distinction is made as to what client is being used in the examples/tutorials.

Although overly specific and technical documentation will not be included in the first iterations of this guide, community use and popularity of this guide will dictate future decisions to move Github wiki documentation to this format.

Examples of overly specific and technical documentation include:

* ETHash, CASPER, ABI, RLP, or other technical specs.
* Full API specs for protocols. Caveat: If an example, information, or tutorial needs to reference API calls for a client or interface in order to fulfill its example it is acceptable to reference the specific call. Be sure to make a reference where the user can find remaining pieces of the specific documentation that may be on the GitHub Wiki.

Resources for Exemplary Documentation
===============================================================================

Here are some examples of previous Ethereum documentation + good examples of documentation.

Compilation and Deployment
===============================================================================

We use `make` with the autogenerated read-the-docs `Makefile` to build the doc.

.. code-block:: bash

    git clone https://github.com/ethereum/homestead-guide
    cd homestead-guide
    make html

Processing Tips
===============================================================================

Fix section delimiter lines (always use 80-long ones to have correct length, unless the title is greater than 80 chars in length)

.. code-block:: bash

    for f in `ls source/*/*.rst`; do cat $f|perl -pe 's/\=+$/================================================================================/' > $f.o; mv $f.o $f; done; done
    for f in `ls source/*/*.rst`; do cat $f|perl -pe 's/\*+$/********************************************************************************/' > $f.o; mv $f.o $f; done
    for f in `ls source/*/*.rst`; do cat $f|perl -pe 's/\-+$/--------------------------------------------------------------------------------/' > $f.o; mv $f.o $f; done
    for f in `ls source/*/*.rst`; do cat $f|perl -pe 's/\++$/++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++/' > $f.o; mv $f.o $f; done
    for f in `ls source/*/*.rst`; do cat $f|perl -pe 's/\#+$/################################################################################/' > $f.o; mv $f.o $f; done

Referencing Old Documentation
===============================================================================

old-docs-for-reference folder has all of the Frontier Gitbook and Ethereum Wiki doc. Feel free to copy/paste information from those documents that is still relevant.

Migrate and Convert Old Wiki Content Using Pandoc
===============================================================================

If you still want to clone the absolute latest Ethereum Wiki and Frontier Guide docs:

.. code-block:: bash

    git clone git@github.com:ethereum/go-ethereum.wiki.git
    git clone git@github.com:ethereum/wiki.wiki.git

    mkdir main-wiki.rst
    mkdir go-ethereum-wiki.rst

    for f in `ls wiki.wiki/*.md`; do pandoc $f -o main-wiki.rst/`basename $f .md`.rst; done
    for f in `ls go-ethereum.wiki/*.md`; do pandoc $f -o go-ethereum-wiki.rst/`basename $f .md`.rst; done
