error building documentation

[nlosacco]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build the html documentation for MOOSE on my computer (Mac OSX 12.4 Monterey). That would be very useful cause I'm working offline quite often.

When I do it from the "test" directory:

cd /home/user/projects/moose/test ./moosedocs.py build --destination [destination_dir]

it works smoothly. But as far as I understand, in order to replicate the documentation of the actual MOOSE website I must run the command in the "modules" directory.
When I do, I get:

MooseDocs.extensions.appsyntax (MainProcess): Failed to locate a valid executable in ${MOOSE_DIR}/modules/combined.

and then a lot of other errors about syntax not being found.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help,

N

The script looks for combined-opt and couldn't find it. You need to compile combined-opt in modules/combined.

You need to build moose/modules, and then run your moosedocs command from there. Like so:

cd moose/modules
make -j 6
cd doc
./moosedocs.py build --destination <destination dir>

that's great, thank you.
Now I wonder if it is possible to embed a local search engine, rather than the google driven one, which tries and connect to the web
