SpongeDocsの執筆

警告

This documentation refers to an outdated SpongeAPI version and is no longer actively maintained. While the code examples still work for that API version, the policies, guidelines, and some links may have changed. Please refer to the latest version of the documentation for those.

「SpongeDocs」とも呼ばれるSpongeドキュメントはSpongeプロジェクトの公式ドキュメントです。SpongeDocsの目的は:

  • Spongeを実装したサーバーのセットアップを行うユーザーの支援すること。

  • Sponge Project に貢献する方法についての情報を、開発者に提供します。

  • プラグイン開発を始める方法についての情報を、開発者に提供します。

問題を報告する

It may always occur that a page gets outdated, an error sneaks in or you just look at a page and think 「Well, there is a better way of explaining this.」 If that is the case and you are for some reason not able to provide a fix yourself, there are three ways of making us aware of the problem:

  1. Create an Issue on the SpongeDocs GitHub

  2. Create a Posting on the SpongeDocs Forums Category

  3. Visit us in the #spongedocs channel on irc.esper.net (you need to be registered)

ドキュメントの執筆

Changes and additions to SpongeDocs should be submitted as a pull request to the SpongeDocs repository on GitHub. We do not require it to be perfect right away as it is common for pull requests to be refined during the review process. Incomplete explanations are also welcome, so don’t shy away if there are some parts you do not understand. There will always be someone able to fill in the gaps.

The Docs are written in reStructuredText (reST), if you’re familiar with Markdown (md) the step to reST shouldn’t be to hard. If you’re having issues with it we suggest that you join our forums or #SpongeDocs on Esper.net and ask for help there.

スタイルガイド

To make sure we have consistent format across all SpongeDocs pages, here are the guidelines we have developed for writing Sponge Documentation. This list may get added to (or bent out of shape) as the Docs get bigger.

  1. Headings Should Be Written in Title Case (<- example) [unless #8 applies].

  2. Page headings should be meaningful (the heading appears as a link).

  3. Program code should be contained in inline literals or code blocks.

  1. Try not to put too much text in code blocks, as they cannot be translated. Contributors are discouraged from commenting in code blocks wherever possible. Simple place-holder text may be necessary in some examples. Ideally, code block examples will be short, and followed by an explanation for each example in the body text. Of course, there may be some concepts that cannot be illustrated with a short example.

  1. Keep separate areas for Users, Plugin Devs, and Sponge Devs.

  2. Avoid repetition by sharing pages where possible.

  3. Link to external resources rather than reproduce them.

  1. Some exceptions are made for translation purposes.

  1. Make distinction between SpongeForge, SpongeVanilla and SpongeAPI.

  2. If it looks awful in your language, invent your own rules.

  3. Sponge is the Project Title and should NOT be translated.

  1. Some languages may wish to use a phonetic translation as well.

  1. 自動翻訳 (例 Google翻訳) はとても推奨できません。しばしばエラーが含まれており、それらは取り下げられる可能性が高いです。

  2. Page Titles and Section Headings should be plain text, avoiding literal blocks and other formatting.

  3. Code symbols should be capitalised in their original form and have no extra spaces (eg. blockState (a field name) or BlockState (a class name), rather than block state). They should also be formatted as a literal using double backticks (eg. blockState) in body text.

  4. Lines should have a maximum length of 120 characters.

  5. Imports should be written out in code blocks the first time they are referenced in each article, but not repeated after the first time.

注釈

As Sponge is still in a state of flux, a shortfall of development docs is to be expected. Until official release of Sponge, there are sure to be voids in many subjects. Nevertheless, SpongeDocs is a living document, always subject to edit. It’s never going to be perfect, just beaten into shape as needs demand.

Contributions, suggestions and corrections are always welcome.
