The CSS for `nature.css` was such that it was preventing `p` tags from
having sufficient vertical whitespace. This meant that you couldn't insert
any kind of spacing between lengthy sections (they just appeared as new lines).
This PR fixes this so you can actually have some whitespace between paragraphs.
As a result of this change, some parts of the spec appeared to have too much
whitespace. These were often sections which shouldn't have begun a new
paragraph anyway (e.g. a single sentence being an entire paragraph, `TODO`
blocks resulting in new paragraphs). This PR fixes the most offending areas
where we shouldn't have been inserting new paragraphs.
Previously, all `m.room.*` events were wodged into `{{room_events}}` which
isn't great when you want to pull specific ones out. Batesian had a 1:1
mapping of `render_foo()` to a section `{{foo}}`, and having to constantly
add functions for new types is a PITA. Batesian now supports returning a
`dict` instead of a section `string` where the keys are the `{{foo}}` and
the value is what will be inserted. Also add conflicting section key checks
to avoid multiple definitions of the same `{{foo}}`. Define dicts for
event schemata and swagger HTTP APIs.
Using this new feature, split out the instant messaging stuff from the events
section, and replace `{{room_events}}` with a list of specific events e.g.
`{{m_room_member_event}}`.
Templates don't know at what level they will be inserted. Previously, we
hard-coded the title style which is not compatible with the build target
system. Define a set of styles which will be replaced by the gendoc script
when it encounters them:
'<' : Make this title a sub-heading
'/' : Make this title a heading at the same level
'>' : Make this title a super-heading
The build target system is now basically complete and functioning.
This will allow us to programatically position .rst snippets *anywhere*
which will for once and for all remove the horrid title level mismatch bugs.
We require this in order to allow people to re-shuffle the spec without
having to adjust the spec itself (e.g. 2 targets with different levels of
nesting).
We're well beyond the point now where a simple `cat` of .rst files to "build"
the spec is practical. We may want to slice and dice the spec in different
ways to address various cross-cutting concerns. To this end, there is now a
'targets' file which contains the "build targets" for the spec, which contains
the sorting order for the .rst files. For now, we just have a single
target: 'main'.
Convert the file format to be of the form ##_##_something.rst where the
first ## is the top-level section number and the second ## is the
second-level section number, e.g. 07_01_push_cs_api.rst means
Section 7.1 - This is now enforced in gendoc.py along with the title line
style that should be used (= for top-level, - for 2nd level) which will
give helpful suggestions if you trip up. This feels much more intuitive
now looking in /specification
This is just replacing the existing spec with a swagger version.
Subsequent pull requests will add 3pid join to this, as well as specing
the invite, leave, ban, and kick endpoints.
