To generate the documentation do: make github

The documentation files will be copied to the cleverhans/docs directory.

Please do: pip install sphinx

Add a .nojekyll file in the cleverhans/docs directory. When GitHub sees a .nojekyll file, it serves the root index.html file. The .nojekyll file indicates that we are not using Jekyll as our static site generator in this repository.

1. Go to the repository on the GitHub website and make sure you are logged in.
2. Add a /docs directory to the master branch. Otherwise you do not get the master branch /docs folder for the Source option in the drop-down list.
3. Click the Settings tab. You first go to the Options section.
4. Scroll down to the GitHub Pages section and choose the drop-down list under Source. Note: Your choices will differ based on whether you’re in a User repo or an Org repository.
5. To keep source and output HTML separate, choose master branch /docs folder for Source.

We keep the source docsource and output docs separate, but still are able to publish on GitHub Pages and preview builds locally.

We have the following option in the Makefile:

  github:
      @make html
      @cp -a _build/html/. ../docs

Thus, we can run make github from the docsource directory to generate a local preview and move the docs where GitHub wants to serve them from.

If you cannot build the docs for attacks, uncomment import tensorflow_addons as tfa in cleverhans/attacks/spsa.py.

Otherwise:

WARNING: autodoc: failed to import module 'attacks' from module 'cleverhans'; the following exception was raised:
cannot import name 'keras_tensor'

It is convenient to create a virtual environment to install all the specific libraries (e.g. virutalen cleverhans).
