hackage-doc-builder-config

This repository contains configuration and administrative documentation for the documentation builder feeding documentation to https://hackage.haskell.org.

Requesting native libraries

If the documentation for your Hackage package upload fails to build due to a missing native library you have two options:

1. If the library is common, packaged for Debian, and small then you can petition to have it installed on the Hackage documentation builder by opening a merge request adding it to the list of Debian package names in packages.txt

2. Otherwise you can upload documentation to Hackage manually.

Manual documentation upload

When native library dependencies aren't available on the Hackage documentation builder Haddock documentation can always be manually uploaded to Hackage via Curl. This can be done with cabal-install via:

$ cabal haddock --haddock-for-hackage
$ cabal upload --documentation --publish
