BUILD.WWW.MK(5)		      File Formats Manual	       BUILD.WWW.MK(5)

NAME
       build.www.mk -- bsdbuild	- HTML document	preprocessing

SYNOPSIS
       .include	<bsd.www.mk>

DESCRIPTION
       The  build.www.mk module	is used	to generate a set of HTML documents in
       different languages and character set variants from an HTML source file
       and one or more templates using the m4(1) macro processor  in  conjunc-
       tion  with  the xsltproc(1) XSLT	processor.  The	following source types
       are recognized:
          HTML+M4 documents (*.htm)
          Cascading style sheets (*.css-in)
          M4 macro packages (*.m4)

       From those sources, build.www.mk	is able	to generate:
          Cascading style sheets (*.css)
          HTML	documents in multiple languages/character sets
          HTTP	variant	data (*.html.var)

TARGETS
       ${HTML}	       Source from which to generate HTML documents  (may  in-
		       clude M4	macro calls and	use optional XSL transforms).

       ${CSS}	       Source  from  which  to generate	cascading style	sheets
		       (may include M4 macro calls).

       clean-www       Clean up	the generated files.

       cleandir-www    Clean up	for packaging.

       install-www     Install HTML documents to the target  installation  di-
		       rectory	HTMLDIR,  overwriting any existing document if
		       HTML_OVERWRITE is `Yes'.	 If HTML_INSTSOURCE is	`Yes',
		       all  files  needed  for re-generating the documents are
		       also installed into the target directory	 (including  a
		       Makefile).

       deinstall-www   Uninstall documents from	the installation directory.

VARIABLES
       HTML		Documents  to  generate	 and install.  If multilingual
			support	is not	required,  use	the  .html  extension.
			Otherwise,  specify the	.html.var extension (documents
			will be	generated for each combination of language and
			character set -- the .html.var file may	then  be  used
			directly by Apache's mod_negotiation or	equivalent).

       M4		Path to	the m4(1) macro	processor.

       M4FLAGS		Extra flags to pass to m4.

       XSLTPROC		Path to	the xsltproc(1)	XSLT processor.

       PERL		Path to	the perl(1) interpreter.

       ICONV		Path  to  the iconv(1) utility,	needed to generate the
			character set variants.

       BASEDIR		Directory containing the macro files (Default =	"m4").

       XSLDIR		Directory containing  XSLT  source  files  (Default  =
			"xsl").	  Note	that ml.xsl is required	for multi-lin-
			gual support.

       DTD		DTD to specify at the beginning	of the generated docu-
			ment (default to HTML 4.01 Transitional).

       TEMPLATE		Template to use	for preprocessing the HTML source.  It
			must reside in BASEDIR and use the .m4 extension.

       CSS_TEMPLATE	Similarly to TEMPLATE,	but  used  to  preprocess  CSS
			source.

       LANGUAGES	Space-separated	list of	translations available for the
			documents  specified  in  ${HTML}.   See  the  section
			"MULTI-LINGUAL SUPPORT"	for more details.

       DEF_LANGUAGE	The default language.

       XSL		Space-separated	list of	XSLT stylesheets to  apply  to
			the documents (Default = "ml.xsl").

       CLEANFILES	Extra files to remove in the `clean' target.

       HTMLDIR		Installation  directory.  The special value `none' in-
			dicates	that the `install' operation should be a no-op
			(Default = "none").

       HTML_OVERWRITE	Don't overwrite	existing documents  in	the  `install'
			phase (Default = "No").

       HTML_INSTSOURCE	Install	 the  HTML source, templates, XSLT stylesheets
			and all	other files needed to be able  to  re-generate
			the documents in the installation directory, including
			a Makefile.  (Default =	"Yes").

MULTI-LINGUAL SUPPORT
       The LANGUAGES variable specifies	a list of languages in which the docu-
       ments   specified  in  HTML  are	 available.   Since  the  ml.xsl  XSLT
       stylesheet is applied by	default, HTML documents	 (usually  encoded  in
       UTF-8)  can  contain multiple translations in a single file.  Language-
       specific	parts are separated using the `<ml>' tag, like so:

	       <ml lang="en">Hello</ml>
	       <ml lang="fr">Bonjour</ml>
