How to build documentation

To build documentation, you'll need a Sphinx. It is a documentaion building tool written in Python.

To install it, you need a virtualenv. Read this instructions how to install it.

Also, you'll need a cl-launch. It is used by documentation tool to run a script which extracts documentation strings from lisp systems.

Run these commands to build documentation:

virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
invoke build_docs

These commands will create a virtual environment and install some python libraries there. Command invoke build_docs will build documentation and upload it to the GitHub, by replacing the content of the gh-pages branch.
