Manual generator for reference manuals as part of a website. Mainly based on Java Velocity as part of websites with Spring. End result very similar to the reference manuals on the MySQL website.
## Deliverables
Manual generator to expand websites with reference manuals.
Mainly by using Java Velocity in combination with pages defined in a MySQL database. First website is being developed in Spring and planningwise you may need to wait for it's completion, (to be discussed). Normally a standard Spring website with registered users should be sufficient for the developments of this.
I will provide a subversion location for the project. I prefer using Eclipse but you may use any other development tool as long as it does not conflict with Eclipse. Any used API's or .jar's must be pre-approved by me.
Key project elements:
- Define manual pages in the database, content outside.
- Generate a full manual as html pages.
- Generate the same as a PDF document.
- Allow for users to add comments to the html pages.
End result should look pretty much like the reference manuals on the MySQL website. **Attached is a more detailled description of the application** as well as a mockup of the main template result. Please read it first and i then welcome any questions you still might have.
