Documents #

Document blocks are the most important element of the Fabric configuration. document block represents a template and includes the data and content blocks that define the document.

document "<document-name>" {

  title = "<document title>"

  ...
}

A block type document and a document name are an unique identifier for the document template within the codebase. The document blocks must defined be on a root level of the configuration file and can not be inside other blocks.

The document block is a structure that groups the data definitions, the sections, and the content blocks together, and describes the document to be rendered.

• meta: (optional) a block containing metadata for the block.
