Ahmet Altay commented on BEAM-693:
----------------------------------
Thank you for looking at this. We can defer the other options for documentation
to the https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-817 . Let's fix the
instruction for pydoc in the readme.
According to [1] develop has the advantage if you are making frequent code
changes. Most of our users would not change the code so install is a better
option. (This also helps because we recommend install for using in other parts
of the readme.)
Readme should be updated to say something along these lines:
"""
Make sure you installed the package first, if not run 'python setup.py install'
then run pydoc with 'pydoc -p 8888'
...
"""
Marco, would you like to make that change?
