The Feed class sets dynamic properties on Picofeed classes; this will
need to be completely rewritten. Version 1.2 of the Laminas XML class
also uses a deprecated function, but upgrading it to 1.3 will require
PHP 7.3.
For now this only adds convenience wrappers around Guzzle to somewhat
emulate Diactoros (albeit with a different API). Code and tests will be
adjusted in due course.
Daux uses Cmmonmark, which does not support indention, required for
proper formatting of manual pages. Consequently, the manul page will
instead be standalone.

The main repository for The Arsse can be found at [code.mensbeam.com](https://code.mensbeam.com/MensBeam/arsse/), with a mirror also available [at GitHub](https://github.com/mensbeam/arsse/). The GitHub mirror does not accept bug reports, but the two should otherwise be equivalent.
[Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) is required to manage PHP dependencies. After cloning the repository or downloading a source code tarball, running `composer install` will download all the required dependencies, and will advise if any PHP extensions need to be installed. If not installing as a programming environment, running `composer install --no-dev` is recommended.

The `/locale/` and `/sql/` directories contain human-language files and database schemata, both of which are occasionally used by the application in the course of execution. The `/www/` directory serves as a document root for a few static files to be made available to users by a Web server.
The `/dist/` directory, on the other hand, contains samples of configuration for Web servers and init systems. These are not used by The Arsse itself, but are merely distributed with it for reference.
The `/dist/` directory, on the other hand, contains general and system-specific build files, and samples of configuration for Web servers and other system integration. These are not used by The Arsse itself, but are used during the process of preparing new releases for supported operating systems.
## Documentation
The source text for The Arsse's manual can be found in `/docs/`, with pages written in [Markdown](https://spec.commonmark.org/current/) and converted to HTML [with Daux](#building-the-manual). If a static manual is generated its files will appear under `/manual/`.
In addition to the manual the files `/README.md` (this file), `/CHANGELOG`, `/UPGRADING`, `/LICENSE`, and `/AUTHORS` also document various things about the software, rather than the software itself.
The Arsse also has a UNIX manual page, also written in Markdown, which can be found under `/manpages/`. [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) is needed to convert it to the appropriate format, with the results stored under `/dist/man/`.

The manual employs a custom theme derived from the standard Daux theme. If the standard Daux theme receives improvements, the custom theme can be rebuilt by running `./robo manual:theme`. This requires that [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org) and [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) be installed, but JavaScript tools are not required to modify The Arsse itself, nor the content of the manual.
## Building the man page
The Arsse's UNIX manual page is authored in Markdown, and must be converted to the native roff format using [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/). This can be done by running `./robo manpage`, which will output appropriate files to `/dist/man/`. The conversion should not be done manually as there is post-processing required for optimal output.
## Packaging a release
Producing a release package is done by running `./robo package`. This performs the following operations:
Producing release packages is done by running `./robo package`. This performs the following operations:
- Duplicates a working tree with the commit (usually a release tag) to package
- Generates the manual
- Duplicates a [Git](https://git-scm.com/) working tree with the commit (usually a release tag) to package
- Generates UNIX manual pages with [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/)
- Generates the HTML manual
- Installs runtime Composer dependencies with an optimized autoloader
- Deletes numerous unneeded files
- Exports the default configuration of The Arsse to a file
- Compresses the remaining files into a tarball
Due to the first step, [Git](https://git-scm.com/) is required to package a release.
- Produces a binary package for Arch Linux, if possible
- Produces source and binary packages for Debian using [pbuilder](https://pbuilder-team.pages.debian.net/pbuilder/), if possible
