srsRAN Project Docs

The srsRAN Project documentation.

Local Installation

The docs require multiple sphinx extensions.

On Ubuntu, they can be installed by first setting up a virtual environment with the following commands within the docs project:

apt install python3.10-venv
python -m venv .venv

Then run

source .venv/bin/activate

You can then install the necessary requirements using:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Once all dependencies are installed, you can download and build the docs with the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/srsran/srsran_project_docs.git
cd srsran_project_docs/docs
make html

Then load the compiled doc in your browser

firefox build/html/index.html
google-chrome build/html/index.html

To stop the virtual environment, run:

deactivate

Live Build

To enable live build previews when editing documentation install the following extension:

• sphinx-autobuild

This can be installed from the requirements file.

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

To build the docs first run from /docs/source

sphinx-build -b html . .live_build

Then run the following command from the docs main folder

sphinx-autobuild docs/source/ docs/source/.live_build/html

This will start a server at http://127.0.0.1:8000 which can be viewed in your browser, any changes to the docs will be shown here once saved.
