Generating a publication from the Linux command line

Generate a publication by running the Publish tool with the -build switch.

Procedure

  1. Confirm that the directory configured as a value of the ExtraConfig directive in your publication configuration file contains the parser configuration file.

    For example, S1000D.xml should be in your LiveContent S1000D home directory.

  2. Navigate to your LiveContent S1000D home directory..
  3. Run the following command:
    ./LiveContentPublish -build templates/conf/PUBLICATION.xml

    where PUBLICATION is the name of the publication you wish to generate (that is, PUBLICATION.xml is the configuration file for that publication).

    The command line tool creates a new publication, deleting previously generated data in that output directory. The source_xml/, figures/ and multimedia/ subfolders of the output directory are not modified.
