If people want to write up good docs please do so. You can see the new docs (which have kind of stagnated since I haven't been porting the existing docs over very much) at http://trac.edgewall.org/browser/sandbox/newhelp/doc
They are done using Sphinx, so you might want to look up ReST too. --Noah From: trac-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:trac-us...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Dan Winslow Sent: Wednesday, June 03, 2009 11:09 AM To: trac-users@googlegroups.com Subject: [Trac] Re: Trac Recipies So do I. Track hacks is a OK place to get plugins from, but not information on how to do things. In general there is a crippling lack of information all across the web about TRAC. I have spent two weeks trying to understand various aspects of TRAC, and I am just now starting to get a vague idea. I am not a python programmer, nor do I have any wish to become one. All of the documentation I can find about a specific subject is usually only a few terse sentences, maybe a *very* short example, and then they all trail off with ' .. and of course, you can always write a plugin to do anything more.'. I don't want to write plug-ins. I don't want to have to read through bunch of alien-looking code to try and figure out what it means. I'm not faulting the developers in particular, they've done a fine job and it's a huge amount of work to maintain decent docs. I was so frustrated that I tried to get management to let me write my own system, but they declined. I think a collection point for trac recipies would be a greta idea. _____ From: trac-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:trac-us...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ariel Balter Sent: Wednesday, June 03, 2009 12:59 PM To: trac-users@googlegroups.com Subject: [Trac] Re: Trac Recipies I disagree.

There is a ton of great information in this email list and forums and out there on the web. I think it would be great to take a sort of "best of" of the actual solutions and organize them into a set of recipes such as "You want to do XXX...Do this:". Not surprisingly, I thing the best way to build this recipe book is with a Trac site. The first thing I would need would be a place to host it. Perhaps the folks that run Trac-hacks would be willing to give me some space. Or, perhaps edgewall.com. I'm open to suggestions. I'd love to hear feedback on this idea.
