Is there a grails plugin to create an online documentation guide? - plugins

I am developing a grails app and was wondering if there is any grails plugin available to create online manuals in both HTML and PDF version, something like:
Spring's reference docs which is hosted in both html and pdf versions.
Yahoo! PlaceFinder webservice guide
If there is not one available, can you please advise me on the tools that can be used to accomplish this.
The documentation is to be used by general public.

The Grails documentation itself, and some Grails plugins uses GDoc for creating documentation in both html and pdf. Something worth taking a look at?
There is work in progress for new Groovy documentation using this infrastructure, see https://github.com/pledbrook/groovy-guide, you might take a look at build.gradle there to get started.

How i create a vbulletin custom plugin

I want to create a vBulletin custom plug-in but I am new in vBulletin i don't know about the vBulletin. I have tried to download the plug-ins but only commercial user will download the plug-in.
There is no specific tutorial that you can follow to create a specific product, however there is a good tutorial from vBulletin which gives you a good idea on how to create a vBulletin 'product' that can be downloaded and installed by others.
But basically to create a product you need to learn some basics and you have to know, php, html, css, and have a understanding of how vBulletin works. Then take it and put it all together.
To get a good understanding, I would recommend modifying other people's add-ons to suit your needs. That's how I was able to get a good understanding of how vBulletin works and then all you have to do as you progress, is to ask the right questions.
The recommendations bellow are also supported by well know vBulletin coders.

HTML basic guide: HTML Tutorial - (HTML5 Compliant)

Magnolia CMS OpenSocial Container

I wanted to use Magnolia CMS module OpenSocial Container for gadgets written on GWT. I've tried to run it locally but without success, even default gadgets are not rendering as they described on demo(http://dlipp.blogspot.com/2011/03/magnolia-module-opensocial-container-is.html). I were not able to find any docs to resolve my issue, nor got answer from magnolia forum. If there any use case of Magnolia OpenSocial Container? Or any other CMS as gadget container?
You didn't include any details on what isn't working, but Daniel's post references the doc page on the wiki:
http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/WIKI/Magnolia+OpenSocial+Container
One thing that looks like it might trip folks up is the fact that ContextRoot is hardcoded to /magnolia-opensocial-sample-webapp. Are you deploying with that context?
Hope one of those things helps.
Nuxeo (http://www.nuxeo.com) is a content management platform that provides a gadget container.
Just in case.

How to create an Export Plugin for Confluence

I'd like to create a plugin that exports into a custom document format similar to the way that export to PDF and export to Word currently work in Confluence.
Does anyone have experience creating a custom export plugin for Confluence? If so do you know of any resources or samples that describe what would be involved?
Here are the most useful resources that I've found so far:
Plugin Tutorial - Adding a custom action to Confluence - This shows how to add an action to the "Tools" menu that appears at the top of a confluence page. Additionally it shows how to interact with the Page object to get more info about the page.
Plugin Module Types - The second guide I found helpful was the list of general plugin module types. It was informative to discover that a "plugin" is really a collection of "modules" and seeing this list was helpful to understand how to apply that model to creating a plugin of the type I was looking for. Additionally the Confluence Plugin Guide was also helpful for a breakdown on Confluence specific plugin modules.
The Confluence Developer FAQ - Useful for information on how to convert wiki content from a page into HTML as well as a number of other hard-to-find gems.
Finally, it was hard to find, but in order to understand how to "target" a particular menu or area of the existing UI to extend, I found it very helpful to read about the guide for Creating your Plugin Descriptor.

Codesmith resources

I use Codesmith to create our code generation templates and have had success in learning how to use the tool by looking at example templates and the built in documentation. However I was wondering if there are any other resources (books, articles, tutorials, etc.) for getting a better grasp of Codesmith?
Have you checked the codesmith community site
We also have a great new collection of video tutorials available. You may want to check those out as well.
There is also a Google Code Codesmith section where you can download the latest updates of some CSLA, nHibernate and Plinqo templates.
Here is an interesting tutorial for building a data access layer using CodeSmith.
Depending on the templates you are using, we might have a separate website with tons of useful information like nettiers.com and plinqo.com. Also check out the help section on our community site.
We have also recently created a new WIKI (http://docs.codesmithtools.com) for all of our documentation.
Thanks
