So I downloaded the latest 3.1 Facebook iOS sdk and under the scripts I found a build_documentation.sh which I ran. It completed and generated a com.facebook.Facebook-SDK-3_0-for-iOS.docset file. I am trying to get it to integrate nicely with XCode. I know that apple docs can create documentation that shows up in the quick help panel. My own custom documentation works great.

Does anyone know what I have to do to get the same kind of documentation integration with Facebook?

EDIT: I tried adding the docset to the corresponding folder according to the instructions here and restarted Xcode but it didn't work

  • copying the docset to ~/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets works here. Maybe check in the Console.app for any hint? – Pfitz Oct 15 '12 at 23:51
  • @Pfitz wasn't able to figure out anything from Console.app but Dash.app did tell me that the Facebook SDK Documentation is missing an index. I don't know if that helps. – Endama Oct 15 '12 at 23:57

If you install the SDK from the package you don't have to generate the docset yourself.

  • Perfect! This worked. Although I would have liked to know exactly how the installation worked, whatever gets the job done! – Endama Oct 17 '12 at 00:12
  • @Endama Why does it work by installing the Facebook Framework directly from the .pkg? It moves it to **/Library/...**, **not** to ~/Library/... (**notice the "~" which stands for your users dir**) – Fab1n Jan 11 '13 at 16:44
  • I am really not sure... I think I might have configured Appledocs to pull from /Library? – Endama Jan 14 '13 at 19:26

You can get the Facebook Documentation working with the following:

  • Build the Facebook Documentation with the provided shell scripts
  • Move the .docset to /Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets

If it doesn't work, you may have to check, if you moved the docset to ~/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets. This is sometimes WRONG

Why does it work by installing the Facebook Framework directly from the .pkg?
It moves it to /Library/..., not to ~/Library/...
