Algorithm Publication Tool (APT)

User guide

The User Guide section on the APT website can be customized using markdown files found in /content/help-documentation.

Each file will result in a new page accessible through a dropdown in the site header.

The file name will be used as in the url to access the page. For example, a page called latex.md will be accessible in the site at <domain>/user-guide/latex. The name should uniquely identify the page and contain only letters, numbers, and dashes.

The page content starts with the Front Matter before the main content. The Front Matter must be the first thing in the file and must take the form of valid YAML set between triple-dashed lines. Here is a basic example:

---
title: The human readable name of this page
---
After the Front Matter comes the post content.

Each help page must have a title attribute. This is the value that will be rendered inside the dropdown navigation.

Table of content

Each user-guide document should include a table of contents allowing users to jump to specific sections of a document.

A table of contents can be added by including the [[toc]] token below the document's headline.

title: User Guide

To allow users to jump back to the table of contents, include a back-to-top link after each section.

Form strings

Each form field on APT can have a quick one sentence description that is shown on a tooltip.

All these strings can be configured through a series of yml files found in /content/strings. If a description is not needed for a given field, just leave it empty and the application will hide it.
