Guia de Estilo

This document contains the various MD and RST/Sphinx specific guidelines for the frc-docs project. For guidelines related to the various WPILib code projects, see the WPILib GitHub

Nomes dos Arquivos

Use apenas caracteres alfanuméricos minúsculos e o símbolo - (menos).

Para documentos que terão um nome de software/hardware idêntico, acrescente «Hardware» ou «Software» no final do nome do documento. Por exemplo, ultrasonics-hardware.rst

Sufixo dos nomes dos arquivos com a extensão .rst.

Nota

If you are having issues editing files with the .rst extension, the recommended text editor is VS Code with the reStructuredText extension.

Texto

All text content should be on the same line. If you need readability, use the word-wrap function of your editor.

Use os seguintes casos para estes termos:

  • roboRIO (não RoboRIO, roboRio ou RoboRio)

  • LabVIEW (não labview ou LabView)

  • Visual Studio Code (VS Code) (não vscode, VScode, vs code, etc)

  • macOS (não Mac OS, Mac OSX, Mac OS X, Mac, Mac OS, etc.)

  • GitHub (não github, Github, etc)

  • PowerShell (não powershell, Powershell, etc)

  • Linux (não linux)

  • Java (não java)

Use the ASCII character set for English text. For special characters (e.g. Greek symbols) use the standard character entity sets.

Use .. math:: for standalone equations and :math: for inline equations. A useful LaTeX equation cheat sheet can be found here.

Use literais para nomes de arquivos, funções e nomes de variáveis.

Use of the registered trademarks FIRST® and FRC® should follow the Policy from this page. Specifically, where possible (i.e. not nested inside other markup or in a document title), the first use of the trademarks should have the ® symbol and all instances of FIRST should be italicized. The ® symbol can be added by using .. include:: <isonum.txt> at the top of the document and then using *FIRST*\ |reg| or FRC\ |reg|.

Termos usados frequentemente devem ser adicionados ao FRC Glossary. Você pode referenciar itens no glossário usando :term:`deprecated`.

Espaço em Branco

Recuo

O recuo deve sempre corresponder ao nível anterior de recuo, a menos que você esteja criando um novo bloco de conteúdo.

O recuo das diretivas de conteúdo como uma nova linha .. toctree:: deve ser 3 espaços.

Linhas em Branco

There should be 1 blank line separating basic text blocks and section titles. There should be 1 blank line separating text blocks and content directives.

Espaço em Branco Interno

Use um espaço entre as frases.

Títulos

Headings should be in the following structure.

  1. # for document titles. Do not use this more than once per article.

  2. ## for document sections

  3. ### for document sub-sections

  4. #### for document sub-sub-sections

  5. Se você precisar usar outros níveis inferiores de estrutura, você está fazendo coisas erradas.

Deixe a primeira letra de cada palavra maiúscula para títulos.

Listas

As listas devem ter uma nova linha entre cada nível de recuo. O recuo mais alto deve ter recuo 0, e as sublistas subsequentes devem ter um recuo começando no primeiro caractere do recuo anterior.

- Block one
- Block two
- Block three
  - Sub 1
  - Sub 2
- Block four

Blocos de código

All code blocks should have a language specified.

```python
print("Hello!")

import antigravity
```
  1. Exception: Content where formatting must be preserved and has no language. Instead use text.

Follow the WPILib style guide for C++ and Java example code. For example, use two spaces for indentation in C++ and Java.

RLI (Remote Literal Include)

Quando possível, em vez de usar blocos de código, um RLI deve ser usado. Isso extrai linhas de código diretamente do GitHub, mais comumente usando os programas de exemplo. Isso automaticamente mantém o código atualizado com quaisquer alterações feitas. O formato de um RLI é:

.. remoteliteralinclude:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/v2025.3.1/wpilibjExamples/src/main/java/edu/wpi/first/wpilibj/examples/gettingstarted/Robot.java
   :language: java
   :lines: 19-25
   :lineno-match:

.. remoteliteralinclude:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/v2025.3.1/wpilibcExamples/src/main/cpp/examples/GettingStarted/cpp/Robot.cpp
   :language: c++
   :lines: 50-60
   :lineno-match:

.. remoteliteralinclude:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robotpy/examples/4e7b525b47246e55ad617a66f2c3d9fda34484a3/GettingStarted/robot.py
   :language: python
   :lines: 12-29
   :lineno-match:

Make sure to link to the raw version of the file on GitHub. There is a handy Raw button in the top right corner of the page.

Nota

RLIs should use a tag instead of main to ensure the documentation isn’t broken the next time there is a change to the RLIed code. If a tag hasn’t been created, use the full (40 character) commit hash.

Tabs

To create code tabs in an article, you can use the .. tab-set-code:: directive. You can use md style ``` codeblocks and rli directives inside. The format is:

.. tab-set-code::
   .. remoteliteralinclude:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/v2025.3.1/wpilibjExamples/src/main/java/edu/wpi/first/wpilibj/examples/gettingstarted/Robot.java
      :language: java
      :lines: 19-25
      :lineno-match:

   ```c++
   // Start the timer.
   m_timer.Start();
   // Send Field2d to SmartDashboard.
   frc::SmartDashboard::PutData(&m_field);
   // Reset the drivetrain's odometry to the starting pose of the trajectory.
   m_drive.ResetOdometry(m_trajectory.InitialPose());
   // Send our generated trajectory to Field2d.
   m_field.GetObject("traj")->SetTrajectory(m_trajectory);
   ```

If you need to use more than one tab per language, multiple RLIs per language, or text tabs, you can use the .. tab-set:: and .. tab-item:: directive. The format is:

.. tab-set::
   .. tab-item:: Title
      :sync: sync-id
         Content

This example uses the sync argument to allow all of the tabs with the same key to be synced together. This means that when you click on a tab, all of the tabs with the same key will open.

If you have a mix of tab-set and tab-set-code directives on a page, you can sync them by setting the sync id on the tab-item directives to tabcode-LANGUAGE. For example, a java tab would have a sync id of tabcode-java.

Advertências

Admonitions (list here) should have their text on the same line as the admonition itself. There are exceptions to this rule, however, when having multiple sections of content inside of an admonition. Generally having multiple sections of content inside of an admonition is not recommended.

Uso

.. warning:: This is a warning!

NÃO

.. warning::
   This is a warning!

Images

Images should be created with 1 new line separating content and directive.

All images (including vectors) should be less than 500 kilobytes in size. Please make use of a smaller resolution and more efficient compression algorithms.

.. image:: images/my-article/my-image.png
   :alt: Always add alt text here describing the image.

Arquivos de Imagem

Image files should be stored in the document directory, sub-directory of document-name/images.

They should follow the naming scheme of short-description.png, where the name of the image is a short description of what the image shows. This should be less than 24 characters.

They should be of the .png or .jpg image extension. .gif is unacceptable due to storage and accessibility concerns.

Nota

Accessibility is important! Images should be marked with a :alt: directive.

.. image:: images/my-document/my-image.png
   :alt: An example image

Vector Images

SVG files are supported through the svg2pdfconverter Sphinx extension.

Simply use them as you would with any other image.

Nota

Ensure that any embedded images in the vector do not bloat the vector to exceed the 500KB limit.

.. image:: images/my-document/my-image.svg
   :alt: Always add alt text here describing the image.

Draw.io Diagrams

Draw.io (also known as diagrams.net) diagrams are supported through svg files with embedded .drawio metadata, allowing the svg file to act as a source file of the diagrams, and to be rendered like a normal vector graphics file.

Simply use them like you would any other vector image, or any other image.

.. image:: diagrams/my-document/diagram-1.drawio.svg
   :alt: Always add alt text here describing the image.

Draw.io Files

Draw.io files follow almost the same naming scheme as normal images. To keep track of files that have the embedded .drawio metadata, append a .drawio to the end of the file name, before the extension, meaning the name of the file should be document-title-1.drawio.svg and so on. Additionally, diagrams should be stored in the document directory in a sub-folder named diagrams.

For the specifics of saving a diagram as a .svg with metadata, take a look at Instruções para Salvar no Draw.io.

Aviso

Make sure you don’t modify any file that is in a diagrams folder, or ends in .drawio.svg in any program other than draw.io, otherwise you might risk breaking the metadata of the file, making it uneditable.

File Extensions

File extensions should use code formatting. For example, use:

``.png``

instead of:

.png
".png"
"``.png``"

Índice

Each category should contain an index.rst. This index file should contain a maxdepth of 1. Sub-categories are acceptable, with a maxdepth of 1.

The category index.rst file can then be added to the root index file located at source/index.rst.

Examples

# Title
This is an example article
```java
System.out.println("Hello World");
```
## Section
This is a section!
