To Discuss

Maintenance of module and extension documentation. See http://slicer-devel.65872.n3.nabble.com/Module-list-in-documentation-not-updated-tt4038225.html

Currently, the script slicer_wiki_extension_module_listing.py is used to automatically create the listing of Slicer modules and extensions available on the Slicer wiki user documentation.

The creation of the listing is a two-step process:

  • Step 1: On each factory (Linux, MacOSX, Windows):
    • the list of modules built in every extension is generated
    • Slicer is started to find out which modules can be loaded successfully into Slicer, the list of modules (as associated metadata) is then published into a github repository: https://github.com/Slicer/slicer-packages-metadata
  • Step 2: Creation of consolidated listing of modules and extensions by downloading the metadata generated in the previous step and downloading the associated list of extension description files.

Discuss the hosting of doxygen files.
