render all manual chapters to docbook from scratch every time the manual
is built. nixos-render-docs is quick enough at this to not worry about
the cost (needing only about a second), and it means we can remove
md-to-db.sh in the next commit.
no changes to the rendered html manual except for replacements and smartquotes.
we'll soon add another docbook converter that does not emit a section as
a collection of chapters, but sections or chapters on their own. this
should clarify naming a bit before there can be any confusion.
this is currently only supported by the docbook exporter, and even the
docbook exporter doesn't do much with them. we mirror the conversion
pandoc did for consistency with the previous manual chapter conversion,
which is to add just an anchor with the given id. future exporters that
go directly to html might want to do more.
this is a subset of pandoc's fenced divs. currently we only use this for
admonitions (which get a new name to differentiate them from other kinds
of blocks), but more users will appear soon.
this is used by release notes (and we don't want to break links to
those), and is also technically allowed anyway. we will *not* extend the
regex to allow more characters just yet due to a mozilla recommendation
against it (cf https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/id)
this should've been a core rule from the beginning. not being a core
rule made it always run after smartquotes and replacements, which
could've wrecked the id.
this lets us parse the `[F12]{.keycap}` syntax we recently introduced to
the nixos manual markdown sources. the docbook renderer emits the keycap
element for this class, the manpage renderer will reject it because it's
not entirely clear what to do with it: while html has <kbd> mandoc has
nothing of the sort, and with no current occurences in options doc we
don't have to settle on a (potentially bad) way to render these.
this is pretty much what pandoc calls bracketed spans. since we only
want to support ids and classes it doesn't seem fair to copy the name,
so we'll call them "attributed span" for now. renderers are expected to
know about *all* classes they could encounter and act appropriately, and
since there are currently no classes with any defined behavior the most
appropriate thing to do for now is to reject all classes.
