How to set author.deprecations.all to "yes"?

[Wai Yan Pong]

Hi,

     I'd like to take care of the warning

 

Rerun with the string parameter "author.deprecations.all" set to "yes" to check your source against all deprecations 

that I got runing "pretext build web"

I couldn't get a useful answers from AI for this.

 

Can someone help me out here? Thanks!

Dear Pong,

Our human-generated documentation is superior to any AI. ;-)

For the CLI, see final paragraph of

Subsection 5.2.7: The project manifest: project.ptx
https://pretextbook.org/doc/guide/html/processing-CLI.html#cli-project-manifest

which also references

Section 28.1: String Parameters
https://pretextbook.org/doc/guide/html/publisher-string-parameters.html#publisher-string-parameters

Hi Rob,

      Yep, I have read that before. And I'm sure the human-generated doc is better than AI but I (a human reader) am not.

      In the doc, it said a "child element" (of what) then gave and example:

    

      <stringparams author.tools="yes" html.css.extra="external/custom-style.css" />

So I suppose mine would be <stringparams author.deprecations.all="yes"/> and should be put somewhere in project.ptx

I tried

<project ptx-version="2">
  <targets>
    <target name="web" format="html" source="calbook.ptx"
    <stringparams author.deprecations.all="yes"/>
    />
    <target name="print" format="pdf" source="calbook.ptx"/>
    <target name="latex" format="latex" source="calbook.ptx"/>
  </targets>
</project>

 and also put it outside the <target>'s but neither of them works.

Can you show me an working example?

Thanks,

Pong

Hi Pong,

It looks like your XML isn't properly formed.  I think you need something like this:

    <target name="web" format="html" source="calbook.ptx">
      <stringparams author.deprecations.all="yes"/>
    </target>

HI David,

      Thanks, it works. Moreover, now I understand the syntax.
